trac bar

I own a 2005 F350. Just yesterday my trac bar broke on the ball joint side. I was fortunate to keep control of the truck (mind you i was doing 60 with a 5000 pound trailer behind me). The truck went into a violent wheel shake. About three weeks ago i installed a 1.5" leveling kit. I had to take the trac bar bolt off on the opposite side of where it broke never touching the side that broke. I installed my new rims and tires and have drove the truck since with no problems until yesterday. Was wondering if someone has ever had this problem or if i have to look into further details why it broke. Didnt know if there may of been a recall?

Have not heard of this failure, nor aware of any recalls.
