Alkers, I'm going to check another Japanese database that lists compatible parts and will report back here shortly.

Alkers, it's definitely a discontinued item at Mazda Japan and I will add it to the list. However, during my searches I came across a German parts supplier who still had it listed. See https://www.amb-trade.de/part/S10H28012/15-mazda/

Appreciated, I'm nearly sure it's the case of you order parts from them and they then try and get them from MAzda with no avail but I've tried ordering there anyway. Thanks

Cheers Lorna. You don't have the part number do you?

It was advised by AVA. I'll check later.

In a sign of things to come, Anti Roll Bar Drop Link Brackets for the front suspension are now being listed with Mazda as "Out Of Production". Our friends at AVA (www.mazdabongo.com) are exploring whether they can be remanufactured.

Any updates on this or any other parts that are now no longer available?

Sorry, I haven't heard anything about this. I've just looked on their website and the brackets are not listed. But there seem to be some after market copies on eBay.

Welcome aboard.

There’s a list of Bongo Friendly garages in the Members' section, then there’s Bongo Spares and a few others who break them and are reputable suppliers of used parts.

A rough location helps. :)
