Message Hey guys,

I was taking out my tension rods to press out and replace the bushings when one of the studs holding the tension rod to the front lower control arm snapped in two. I looked online and it said on the Z32 wikia that aftermarket tension rods require these studs to be hammered out of the stock rod and hammered into any new stock tension rods so I hammered that stud out and took it to a dealership to try to get a replacement. They told me there that the stud is actually part of the tension rod and is not supposed to come off, and my only option is to buy a 250$ tension rod from them. Is there any place I can order these studs/bolts online without paying for a whole new tension rod? I'm not sure how this part can be listed as part of the tension rod if it comes out and has to be replaced?
