I was driving home when I heard a "clunk" from under the van. I rode my bike back to the place where I heard the sound. I found this piece of equipment on the ground. From my van?

Never seen it before. Looks like a sway bar fell off some rusty car.

There's nothing like that under my van.
Is your van driving like it normally does?

| That looks way too light weight for any suspension or drivetrain part on anything out there. Maybe its just fell off a trailer hauling a load of junk to the dump. |

Looks like the brace for 57 Chevy fender skirts (left side).

That fell off my van can you send it back to me? Without it I have no acceleration and Women don't find me funny or cute.
