In about the least sexiest way you could: a speed bump.
It was a big one though! When I can down the back side, there was a big snap and the passenger side fell to just a hair above the tire. Looking at the snap looks like it had been damaged for a while and corroding in one location. I had heard two strange clunk noises the week or two before it happened, but hadn't got around to checking it out. I'm not sure I would have even noticed an issue with the bars though.
What I found were four sizes of Alpha bars, with 30.5mm being the largest. And an ARB/Old Man Emu bar that was 30.3mm.
For reference, the Alpha bar numbers:
L93357121/R93357122 - 30.5mm
L93357119/R93357120 - 30.1mm
L15906133/R15906134 - 29.36mm
L15082981/R15082982 - 28.3mm
I went with the ARB bars based on some forum recommendations. We'll see.
