Hey everyone, got another question now. First I got a '98 2.4L Sunfire. Recently, I got the pacesetter header and high flow cat installed. Earlier this week I found my smoke coming from my engine bay. After further investigation, it was found that the steel return line for my power steering fluid was bent and had a puncture hole in it This line runs parallel to the rack and pinion assembly. I also had the shop investigate a "clunk" that I have during heavy braking. They found that my torque link was shot. I just had this replaced not too long ago and it's already blown. My question is, does anyone know of anywhere I can get an aftermarket torque link, dealership called it a torque mount? I looked at a few online stores such as rksport, highrev, and andy's auto sport, none have my needed part. They only have aftermarket motor mounts, which I also plan on picking up. If anyone can let me know where to get these links at so I don't have to keep replacing the stock ones, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I posted this at j-body.org also and they told me that the torque mount is the same as the lower motor mount. I know the torque mount looks like a rounded dog bone, and the motor mount looks more like an "I". If anyone can say true or false as to whether or not these are the same parts, it'd be appreciated. Thanks.
