I'm trying to track down a part number for the panhard rod support bracket that mounts just above the pass side PHR attachment and bolts to the body on the driver's side. I think its probably the same part for all 4th gen's. Anybody happen to know the p/n?

 

THat is the "upper panhard rod". I bent one on a 3rd gen once....but it is a rare case. Granitelli motorsports used to make an aftermarket one....but I don't think anyone ever bought them and it may be discontinued....scratch that....go here:

There it is and it fits 82-02.

Good luck!

 

trackbird, you Da Man! I wondered if anyone made an aftermarket version of it. Thanks!

 

It is actually a boxed version of a stock upper PHB. YOu can source one from a junkyard, weld on some support pieces of steel and paint....cost: $190 less than the Granitelli part ($30 for the junkyard upper, $5 for steel and $5 for paint). But, I'm glad to help out....

 

Just to follow up on this - GM references the part as "rear axle tie rod bracket brace" p/n 10019526. gmpartsdirect.com sells it for under $30. I could bend up a half dozen of those before the GMS unit would pay off

 

Yea, I figured that "anybody was better than GMS" for price. That is why I mentioned that the say it is a reinforced stock part. Good luck!
