Rear Trunk pivots

I want to replace my rear trunk pivot with the JWest aftermarket version. Looks like it will cure some problems.
Unfortunately, my "guide rails" have been destroyed. Pelican show pics of them, but doesn't seem to have them available.
Anyone have a source?

Also...does anyone know what the factory ride heights are for the 76 2.0 series?

What are the "guide rails"? Could you post a link to a pic?

Ok, here is the pic from Pelican's website. I need #6, the guide rails.

Used is probably the best bet. You could also make one in a pinch.

If you want new parts, call up 888-280-7799 and ask. (Jason or John would probably be good guys to contact.) Point the the sales staffer specifically to the photo on the website and tell them which part it is. It may still be available new; I'm not tied into that end of the house enough to be able to tell.

Dave,
I assume that is Pelican's service? I sent them an email a week or so ago about this subject and was never acknowledged.
JWest has taken care of me.... It's covered!

Thanks for your help.
