as most of u know i hit a tree. well now i have to cut the front braces of that are in front of the radiator. yesterday i cut off the top brace cuz it was puting a bit of pressure on the shroud and fan. i mentioned it today to one of my friends and he was like do u still have ur strut tower brace on and i was like no and he was all freakin out like man u gota keep that on there if u cut the brace of cuz ur frame will warp if there is a drop in temp( as in since it is like an "H" each side where the fenders are will twist or one fender will be higher than the other). but i still have the main circular brace at the lower part connected and i dont think i'm gonna remove that until im completely ready for the swap. i didnt really beleive him but it got me a little worried. so is this trueor am i straight until i do the swap which will happen within the next month most likely since i dont really have the resources otherwise i'd be working on it everyday..

 

just tack a piece of angle across the front end to maintain alignment

 

what top brace? the radiator support?



I find it hard to understand what it is your trying to describe

maybe take the car to a body shop and let them put it on a frame

machine for you and do thier thing

 

its the brace with that yellow sticker on it

 

this is what it looked like before it was cut

 

that would be the radiator support, youll be ok

until its fixed

 

ok awsome. so its that main one that is circular at the bottom that is the important one?



and by the way i tore that essay up. i had to much info.... lmao there was a bunch more info that i wanted to put in it but didnt have room it had to be one page
