I just bought an 81 510 5 door and the previous owner apparently had a run in with a curb or something. The bracket that bolts to the frame and holds the strut rod and bushing has been bent and crushed to the rear. Its not so bad that I cant drive it but I am worried about its durability. I was wondering if anyone knew if any other years/models used the same strut rod brackets. (earlier 510s, the z cars?) Or if anyone had a parts car that they could pull it off of. In case its called something else let me clarify. Im needing the bracket/cradle that attaches to the front of the frame for the passenger side strut rod. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks Aaren
