Rear Strut Mount Bolt?

2160 Views 6 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  Jahrjahr
I picked up a '01 GT, the front struts were recently replaced, but not the rears. Well, I found out why!
I dug in to replace them, and 18 years of rust has me defeated. First, the bolt that holds the strut snapped, then, I had to cut the strut off. Well, in doing so, the strut mount in the knuckle took a beating.
I'm stuck now because I can't find a replacement for it, and I was wondering if anyone here has a part number, or can point me in the right direction.

Thank you!

Hey did you ever get your new knuckles? Did they come with the strut mounts? Where did you order them from?
