Although disconnecting the front sway bar is a cheap easy way to get more front end flex (and lots of people do it / buy disconnects), I don't think it is the cause of your problems. The sway bar should be limiting the front end articulation and saving the front arms from extra stress on the bushes (and the thin steel arms themselves).

People do crack and bend the factory arms. How many have you been through. If its just 1 or 2 and you give your TJ a decent workout offroad then I'd say its par for the course and after market arms might be worth looking at.
