Where about did it break? In the "middle" of the long thin adjusting groove? If so I used a splint (or a bridge) type of device from the mounted piece to the adjusting groove piece. The problem then was getting the mounting bolt in place because it broke right near that. I ended up getting one from the junk yard about a year later. This was on my '84 so brackets may be different.

Bummer Josh. There's some wrecking yards listed on the links page of the IFSJA homepage. I contacted J&W Auto Wreckers via www.jwjeep.com (http://www.jwjeep.com) about a carb.and they responded very quickly. They claim to have lots of stock Jeeps parts.
