Her inspection is due by the 31st and I don't think my bungiee cables and zip ties will pass. Ford discontinued the bracket only and now I'd have to get the whole assembly($420ish) I only need the left front one, none of the junk yards near me have it. So anyone out there have one or know of a place I can pick one up? Thanks! Last edited by aAandHt; 08/29/06 07:49 PM.

I found that off a google search however the site looks shady. Plus I'd get it quicker if I could make a run to someone locally and pick it up. NJ is pretty strict on anything for inspection...doubt my 5 minute ziptie fix would pass Hell I had one wire dangling above my clutch and they failed me for safety. Needless to say I pulled into the parking lot shoved it up went to a different line and was passed. Last edited by aAandHt; 08/29/06 10:25 PM.

Though still am looking for the mount.
