Front Strut Rod, got it.  That's what I need.  Thank you, Curtis.

Actually, I think I determined why the wheel was splayed out so much: one of the lug nuts was missing, and the corresponding stud was at six o'clock when I parked the car.  

Incidentally, after asking for a carb j-bolt, I found two!
