Radiator Support Cross Member and Strut Rod Brackets
« on: July 26, 2023, 10:20:29 AM »
Radiator Support Cross Member and Strut Rod Brackets are rusted and needs replacement.  OER has a reproduction part for the Cross Member described ?correct reproduction? and reproduction part for Strut Rod Brackets described ?designed to replace original exactly.?  Any reviews appreciated.
Thanks

sure would help if you told us what year, plant & bodystyle. suggest you add that info to your signature or you may be asked about it frequently.

I have never seen an accurate reproduction of that piece before and doubt they exist.  Thy look close but not exactly the same.
Ford did service that part but havent seen them come up for sale in a long time.  Hard piece to find NOS.

For the most accurate replacement you need to either fix what you have on the car or cut out that section from a donor car and replace.
