Noise and movement of strut towers

I would look for cracks along the firewall and the sturt towers.

An upper brace would really help, but I don't think they should be moving around.  Chances are something in the wreck damaged the front end and made it weak.

GTZ header..listen up..someone found something...

Quote (puck @ Dec. 20 2001,01:11)Quote Hey Rex, when you say grind out the flange, what flange are you speaking of?

Dual exhaust is not necessary and only adds weight.
