I pulled the 4.0 OHV out of my 1991 2dr this past weekend. I'm making a list of parts to replace and I can't find any part number for #4 in this picture:

It's a pretty beefy steel arm that bolts to the engine block on the driver's side, and the gas strut attaches to the outside of the frame in the driver's side wheel well. I think I may have toasted that gas strut when removing it (probably needs replacing anyway with 300k miles on it). Anybody have a technical term for that part or a part number I can use to continue my search?
 






I have one right here
They stopped adding those to the engines in 94 I think
It’s really not necessary
But if you want one I have the whole setup right here
Pm me if you want it cheap
 






Gotcha, thanks for the reply. If it's not really necessary then I probably won't even reinstall any of it. Cleaning up the engine compartment will be an added plus
 






Exactly! Will be fine without it
