Recommended Posts

while replacing the strut rod bushing I found a screew was missing from my strut bar bracket. After finding this out i notice it had no theads to screew in the frame. has this happen to any one else. this means the loose end of the strut bar bracket is hitting the frame.

I JUST had my strut rod bushings replaced. They're in the rear, correct? I wanted to ask you, how did you find out a screw was missing? What sound was it making? Is there a way I can look to see if a screw is missing?

guys this is really bothering me. The sway bar bushings are suported on th strut rod bracket. I looked in the other one and it had theads in it . the passager one didn't. perhaps they broke off and feel in the frame some where. How can I fix this :o

You need to get the holes retapped so you can thread bolts in again. Might have to go slightly oversized if the holes are totally stripped.
