Hey folks. I installed front and rear strut bars from ireland engineering today.
They have a disclaimer to measure between struts to make sure they havent been too bent out of shape over the years.
Mine were perfect and the bar dropped right onto the studs, no problem. When i tightened it down, i realised it is making contact with the intake manifold, and when you start the car, the whole bloody frame vibrates with the engine!
My buddy thinks that worn out transmission mounts could cause the motor to tilt back, anyone care to add to this theory, or provide a theory of their own?
