In response to In response to 1


          

I talked to a pretty reputable body guy a while ago about my front strut towers rusting out on me. According to him, the dodge caravans had a similar problem where they would rust to the point where the strut actually came through the rusted out tower... :o Apparantly when chrysler found out about this, they made a replacement part that body shops could replace on cars under warranty... The part that has the strut tower on it is called the front apron. Apparantly you have to take a third of the car appart to replace them, but if you have the extra parts, time, and patience to do it, you should be able to get it done... As for the body guy, he flat-out refused to even touch mine, because of safety concerns, regarding cutting and welding pieces in... and personally i dont necisarally blame him. I wouldn't trust welded in parts either... Hope this helps...
