Title: Bulge on top of strut tower... I'm guessing abnormal!
Post by: booksix on September 14, 2007, 01:11:37 PM
Ok, so here's the deal, there is some bulging on my drivers side strut tower (on the top).  Car drove fine and all, just looks strange.  What do you all think?  Fix it?  Pic on the bottom is the passenger side, which in comparison, seems fine...

Looks like the car was bottomed out hard on the driver front at some point.  Were you still using the stock upper strut mounts? 

I'd just "massage" it back into place and not worry about it.

A little too much Dukes of Hazzard action? :D
