Well, I meant for a replacement hanger.  It doesn't appear to have parted
voluntarily - or 'cleanly'! ;-)

Yeah, THAT'S the ticket, other side, but you got it! (And glad you got some
picts back online). 

: Fix is "simple" - beat/push/pull the hanger back into place, and weld.

: Easiest to unbolt the spring first, weld it up, and then put 
: the spring back in and re-bolt.

And you can't help it, even if you ARE right 99.9% of the time! I tell my
wife it's like a disease, and she should console me!

Thanks as always - seeing your picts helped... "Misery loves company" and
all that.  I, naturally, have already taken pictures.  Alas, no digital cam,
but a trusty 35mm Minolta, and have more to take to use up the roll, process
at Wal-Mart, etc. Eventually they'll make an article on my PN pages. "The
joys of motoring" indeed...

Cheers,
