This is unnerving

When I had my suspension replaced, Patrick discovered that my center bearing support was toast. Not just worn, but shredded to bits. Very odd, considering there was absolutely no vibration at any speed; car drove perfectly.

Yikes! time to take a look at mine again...

Where did you get the Bilstein struts or are they stickers. The center bearing should be looked at frequently as these caes are for the "tinkerer".

OK, so how did you do that? I was able to post pictures before Photobucket changed its format (right click, click on img). Now, I right click on a picture, and there is no img code.

Thanks.

Now there's a thing you click on the right of the picture and it copies the IMG code for you.

Never mind, I saw that I could go back to the old Photobucket format, problem solved. Didn't like the new format anyway.

They're the stock struts.

Seriously. You're *this* far away from a driveshaft leaving the car (and hitting some poor bastard) event. Please use lock nuts or at least washers.

Bought the car in June of this year. PO must've omitted the washers. I am well versed in the use of washers.

They're the stock struts.

Update: They are the stock strut housings, obviously new Bilstein struts.
