I've searched and searched not found anyone who had this happen to.
On the upper control arms, it mounts to the chassis in two spots and the nut holding it to the chassis is located in the engine bay on opposite sides of the strut mount nuts. Usually have a bead of some type of sealer around it. On my drivers side the nut closer to the master cylinder came through the top of the mount and the chassis is pretty bent up. It was rattling the whole 20 mile drive home. The mount seperated from the chassis. Im thinking of welding it back up. Any opinions on this?
Also would having blown shocks cause this??? My suspension is a mess, shocks are blown, rack and pinion is shot, And im sure all the bushings are worn. Sent all my time and money on the engine and forgot about the car.
