A local buddy with a 76X had a suspension failure due to rust last fall. After waiting 6 months for the shop to fix that issue, the shop now says they notice the strut plate is deformed. Here is a the part at MWB, but the only have right side parts available. My buddy needs the left side.
So the question is, can the existing part be "straightened"? Or is this a case where the part, once deformed. is better of replaced? Maybe get it straightened up and then install some of ChrisO's Plaia Bigfoots?
I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. My buddy and I are having a hard time finding a meeting time where we can both be there when the shop is open. I will try to get a picture from the shop if they wont let me come check it out since it isnt my car.
