Default 1990 Cherokee 2 door sport suspension Help!

I have a problem. I do not have the $$$ to replace my old Jeep, the right side or passenger stabilizer bar that connects to the front axle broke off the axle. It looks like a bracket was welded to the axle. The bracket itself is what is broken, or ripped off the axle. The stabilizer bar itself just has a little road rash on one end from being drug across the asphalt. Can this bracket be purchased and welded back to the axle or does the axle have to be replaced? Jeep is rough, I was not off road when it happened, just riding thru town. If it can be ordered, what do you call it, and where would I find it? Thanks for helping.

Not sure that track arm bracket can be bought, but any reputable metal shop could fab you up one pretty cheap

Default Lower control arm bracket on axle broken

Thanks for all the input. I may not have explained it well. Can a new lower control arm bracket be purchased? If so, where? A friend loked at it and said it was part of the front passenger axle assembly. Looks like it's just welded to the axle to me. The jeep is a 1990 2 door 4wd. The bracket, or whats left of it is ruined. Part number? Thanks again.
