So I was casually driving the other day and heard a loud thump. My rear track bar mount had broken off the axle!! It broke due to the added leverage of the lift kit it had installed on it (a simple bracket that attached to the oe mount to raise the mounting point),
Any suggestions for a replacement? I'm thinking of calling up offroad evo tomorrow to get it done as well as adding rock skins and maybe sliders..

Second time grinded off the stock mount and custom made a mount been good ever since

This is a common problem. You will find some lift companies producing a track bar with a bracket that will be bolted to and surrounding the stock mount. At that point you also weld the relocation mount axle to prevent that from happening.
Here is a picture as an example.
