Need help identifying what part this bushing and associated bracket are called. This is the drivers side. Ignore the white clip thats my attempt at a temp repair. The bracket and bolts sheared off and are roadside somewhere.

Can't tell from your photo but is the frame side bracket still intact? FWIW I had the same bracket decide it had enough of my off-road escapades during a 2010 Utah explore. I suggest removing your ASB ASAP(!) or you seriously risk ripping a brake line (BTW: When this happens you lose all wheels worth of hydro brakes) similar to the carnage that occurs on an 80 with similar problem.

You'll need to fab a new bracket, assuming the frame side is not solid or missing, from angle and gussets that will get welded back in place.


edit: Looks like the Stabilizer Bar Bracket part #'s are: RH is 48824-60100 and LH is 48824-60110

Frame side bracket looks good. Appears the bolts all sheared, most likely happened over time and 4 if July wheeling finished it off.

When you say remove the ASB, excuse the ignorance, what is this referring to?

I did find the right page in the 2004 FSM thanks to your identifying this as the stabilizer bar.

That's your anti-sway bar bushing and mount. Do a search on those terms. This problem has been mentioned by a few people. Not totally uncommon in the rust belt.

Best of luck.
 
Thanks all, parts on order.
