Default Do sway arms go bad????

Ive got the entire suspension torn apart. (Read she's loose part 1 and 2) The only thing Ive seen so far is a SLIGHT egging of the holes where the sway arm links go into the lower control arm.

Is there any chance that my sway arm may be 'worn out'?

The bar looks fine, bushings are old and dry and stiff but not cracked or broken.....the arm isnt bent or cracked (that I can see...)

I don't think I have ever heard of a sway bar being worn out. I have seen bars before where the holes for the end links are not perfectly round.

usully they dont the end link holes can get warn a lil but nothing too bad unless you have like 500tq and race without a 4 link or like to drift it.
then they can bend most common part to go bad is the part that the link is conneccted to on the car usually breaks in 3rd gens but can buy the remanufaruted ones at a dealer
