I think you mean the steering damper. Rock Auto has brand new ones for $15-$18. I'm sure Auto Zone, O'Reilly or Advance will have them, too.

Someone posted on this forum recently the part number for the horizontal shocks. It's the same as a VW Passat or something.

Fusick also sells the correct horizontal shocks.

Fusick's is $70.

Auto Zone's is $21.

I think I'd pick one up at the Zone and compare it to the original. Is the range of travel the same? You wouldn't want it to extend too far and damage something. If it isn't right, take it back and drop a C note with Fusick.
