    72 S rear sway bar mounts

    My car sadly was a "bar car". AND the previous owner let drunk girls drive... And well, damage was done to the under carriage.

    Everything is good now less the rear sway bar mounts. I have the sway bar and the links are no problem to buy. BUT the mounts on the trailing arms are damaged or smashed.

    Where can I source these?

    Thanks!

    Paul

    This?

    Or substitute a pair of SC aluminum trailing arms with ball pins.

    No, it is the mounts that are welded to the rear trailing arms I need. I'll have to take some pictures. One side is okay I think, but the other is smashed flat. I found an awesome welding guy that can cut it off and weld a new one on... I just need to source a new bracket. I guess I need to go ahead and buy new links and bushings. This is the last thing I have to do before I hit AutoX.

    Porsche Classic sells the factory part to weld on but IMHO there are too thin and flimsy.

    I went with the ones from Elephant Racing:

    Sorry. I am a dummkopf. The pins on the arms are fine I think.

    It is the mounts on the body of the car that are all beat up. One side is okay I think.

    Going to look at Porsche Classic.

    Thanks guys. I appreciate it and apologize for my ignorance.

    "Porsche Classic"... They have some cool "assembly gloves" but I do not see any weld on rear sway bar mounts that weld on to the frame.

    Guess I am going to cut the old ones off and see if I cannot beat them back into spec. What a cluster F!

    And "Restoration Design"? In EUROPE? Is there not any where in the states I can source these parts.

    I am ready to get on this. Auto X season is coming up soon. I would love to represent in an long hood S, but my old Z28 is ready to go.
