    Tension Rod struts are again on back order. A customer I have been working with has advised me the ones for his LX will not be in until July. So he bought Mivotech units. These units can be identified by a blue balljoint boot. Factory units are black. The outer diameter of the radius rod or tension rod as the factory calls it, are not the same OD as the OEM units and our tension strut or front radius rod bushing will not work with them.


    P/N are MS25121 and MS25120. They have blue balljoing boots.


    Here is a picture of their unit. Please note the balljoint boot
