Overnighted, I assume?

I wish, the best is 4-5 days and that’s like $30. The Japanese website won’t let me order now, so I’m back to finding a Raider at a wrecker, or having a bracket made

What bracket do you need? If you have the old one for a template you may find a welder or even body shop that can fabricate it for less than getting it through international shipping.

The one that holds the left side of the front swaybar to the frame. It’s apparently broken at some point, long gone. The right side bracket is identical, and my mechanic will be able to make one. It’s just a $4 part, so I was hoping at least somewhere in North America would have it. I’ll likely get my mechanic to do it, hopefully it will be less than getting one shipped

Yeah, shipping on what are typically cheap parts can be a real killer. There are a couple small rubber bits I need for my truck that I’m waiting till I need other parts to order. I hate the thought of spending $15 to ship a $3 part.

Forget ordering anything from here until Monday... It’s “Obon” and everything is shut down here, all over Japan...
