Simple Question Need help

My brother has a 1987 rx7 convertible that he put into a curb. It hit the rear drivers side wheel. Im trying to fix it up for him. I just got him a new set of wheels but I also need to replace the bar that is connected to the lower a-arm? What is that bar called? I am going to go to mazda and order one but i dont want to order the wrong part. Its in front of the arm with ball ends on it. its bent pretty good.

i know its a crappy description but since some of you are experts i though you might know what i should order right off the top of your head.

thanks in advance.

ur much better off going to a junk yard or craigslist to find used parts.

if u go to mazda they will have a diagram of the whole suspension, u can just point out what u need.
