Upper Strut Tie bar Question



I am not sure what the Callaway has I would have to go look but I can take
pictures if you like.  It has the front and rear.  I can look for part
numbers.  The front has the collars on the struts and the rear is a straight
(square) bar between the two upper points.  Looks to be steel if I
remember...

Let me know.  I gotta mow the yard anyway today so I will be right there
looking at it to get the mower out.
