If you got to the link I posted they claim to be in stock but also are over $400 for a pair. BTW RA no longer lists the Cardone. We seem to be in the "donut hole" of restoration when the stock replacements have gone away (lack of demand) and have yet to be repoped. Am still finding quite a bit on eBay but prices are increasing. Having a spare parts car is becoming more attractive.

Back in the late '60's and early '70's, I used to know enough Fortran and Cobol to be downright dangerous!

No sir. Not another bracket. The lower strut body is still inserted into the knuckle, and the pinch bolt is still used to tighten the knuckle against the strut body. The pinch bolt fits in the are where the lower mount is welded to the body. Pinch Bolt Locations; Allante (L), OEM (R). Strut inserted into knuckle. Due to the 1993 Allante design, the clamping area is ~ 1/2 of the Reatta OEM clamping area. This is why I am considering the bottom bolt to prevent upward movement of the strut out of the knuckle. This is the lower portion of the Allante strut extending below the bottom of the knuckle. The bushing has been removed, the lower mount flattened and filed so that it was 54 mm or less to fit into the knuckle opening. The idea is that the cam bolt will be inserted thru the opening and wedged under the knuckle housing. The sway bar connection point had to be relocated higher on the strut with the clamp, as it does not drop downwards lower on the knuckle.
