[Roadsters] Torque rod

[Joe Russo]

There was someone on 311s that made his own. They are very similar to the lower control arm bushings on a 510 or 240Z...likely others. If you can get the ID, length and OD measurement s from the old ones...you might be able to match one up with OEM or aftermarket
