Angry In need of expert help ... again

Hello experts ^^

Here i am again begging for your expert help.

As some of you might remamber a while ago i crashed my rx-7 and bent a rear axel.
I finaly got it replaced last weekend just to descover that my watts link pivot bracket was bent/destroyed beyond any hope of restoration, atlist by me or anyone i know. Already asked around .

I also checked my local scrapyards and parts stores mainly mazda, napa and carquest without any result.

I now seek your help.

I have an 83 not sure which model though.
Will a watts link bracket from an 86 work? I might be able to get one of thouse from mazda.
If not are there any other cars it can be taken off of?
If not any one know where i can get one?

I know one should be available someone as the one i had on my car was recently replaced. Level of rust differs greatly from anyother part and it still has paint on it.
I'm located in Montreal Quebec and in desperet need for one.

Thanks

It`s the actual bracket that bolts onto the axel assembly and the watts links.
