05 coupe ive turned every nut and bolt on this turd.
Exclamation Broken compression rod Stud -Gktech Angle Kit

So as the title states i snapped the passenger side while getting ready to install gktech super angle kit

My question is does anyone have a source of replacement stud specs i understand i have to cut open and weld a new one in but have came up empty trying to find a new stud ive found used frame rails and such but would rather have a new stud instead of putting such work into a old stud .
i cant imagine im the only person putting a angle kit on of with this problem ! I see people using solid bushings and such and say they welded a stud on etc but havent seen any updates nor do they prolly use the car for drifting . i worry my solid bushings will be to much stress on a simple weld fix ? i could be wrong

so im looking for help any info anyone has is useful. thanks!

There is no replacement for that, you will probably end up just drilling out the hole until it finally pops out somewhere, then you can weld a bracket and make yourself a new stud out of something.
