Does anyone know if lower control arm strut rod replacements are available for 73 roadrunner? I took mine off the k-member today, and where they mount to the k-member under the bushings, pretty well rusted, lots of deep pits. Does anyone make replacements?

Please let me know.
 
If you're not into originality, check out the aftermarket ones.
 
Unfortunately the Firm Feel or other adjustable rods dont work on the 73 Roadrunner, as this year has the hockey stick style that bolts to the top of the lower control arm. The did say they could customize my hockey stick end with adjustable rods, but then it will not work with the sway bar setup. So, if anyone knows the location of a good set let me know!!!!

EDIT: Ok, i am a fool. Problem, the damn sleeves were so rusted on the strut rod ends that they were virtually indistinguishable from the rod itself, but after soaking in my de-rusting solution, i could see two edges. Now that they are gone, the surface underneath is good on the ends!!! Hooooorray!!!! I tell you, these sleeves all over the front suspension are driving me batty!!! But hey, at least they took all the corrosion damagae and not the underlying parts!!!!

Thanks for you patience and understanding, but feel free to slap me upside the head! LOLOLOL
