If this is an alignment rod Bar that you are talking off that goes back to the lower arm and the rust is in that attachment point where it is mounted to the frame Then it can be repaired with a new section being welded it but you will need an accredited welder / panel beater to do the job . If it is rusted through the frame then have the whole frame checked because rust is not always visible until the paint is disturbed. This part is vital to the steering stability and if not done properly will result in serious injury to the driver and others.

stuck relay for same.

there is none. its got HLA's why not post symptoms.???

any welding shop can fix this,, ANY ! ask one,

it is in front of the radiator

have a compression test done as I think that you have a head gasket or cracked head problem.
