Default 95 4x4 front end issue



I need help locating what this part (or parts) is called. It has split off the front axle on the driver side and is just hanging there. I have looked at the 2nd Gen PDF file and I cannot find it.
I have a welder in the family that can help me out once I get the part ordered.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I think your best bet is a junkyard. Get a cordless grinder and cut off as much as you can from a donor front diff, I would try for the whole spring pad. Then let the welder decide how to deal with it.

i agree, thats not something you can simply just order, and even though it looks like it buckled due to rust id still have you welder guy beef it up on both sides, that metals not very thick to begin with
