SOS! HELP!!! (rear suspension)

[KEINsm]

I was driving my '71 240Z from Costa Mesa to Riverside.

I ran over a large rock (???) or something very big and heavy on the 60 freeway right by my exit ramp.

I immediately stopped the car and found my wheel to be heavily damaged with a "large negative toe."

I figured it was just a damaged wheel so I slowly made it back home and changed the tire.

When I jacked it down and decided to drive it to see if it was safe, the entire left rear drops.

After a simple inspection, I found that the transverse link (A-arm) was slightly deformed and the part that connects the link to the axel was broken in half ! !

I would like to ask any Z owner in SoCal who can help me look for parts or offer any aid.

This is my primary car so I am stuck here in Riverside.

Must have been a pretty big rock! I'm sure you have found a replacement from a boneyard somewhere up there. If not there is a place down in San Diego that I know has anything and everything. I can't remember the name right now but let me know if you need it. I've got a buisness card somewhere.

Classic Datsun Motorsports?

KEINsm, I got a spare Left rear corner you can HAVE if you can come to L.A. But it has Pivot Pin issues. There's a boneyard near downtown LA with a 72 that I'm sure they'll sell just the corner.
