isnt it the same as the eclipse 97-99? or is that just the upper ball joint.
good luck in finding a part try pm hipsi(trav) or just plain nuts(ben) they might still have some parts from their front cuts

use the search button and you will find 2 - 3 threads mentioning that the 97-99 eclipse ones fit off ebay. should cost you barely anything.

speaking of suspension components, anyone know what the below part is called? i had the car on a hoist a couple of days ago and noticed that it was quite badly bent (as opposed to the passenger side - smaller circle).

its joined to the lower front rear control arm and at the moment is pushing my swaybar up and its knocking on the control arm itself plus other parts.

ah right i see what you're saying.. i have one i am happy to let go, mind you it will need replacing as the ball joint is a little worn.
