Strut Mount Question

Bought new Moog strut mounts for my 85.They are shaped a little different from the OEM one's and the strut mount stud plate does not line up with them. If I remember there is a easy fix for this. Anyone? Badman

Hit the bone yards or purchase the correct retainer from Spohn (went through this some time ago):

Re: Strut Mount Question

Thought that you did. Thanks for clearing this up for me. I will hit the junkyard tomorrow. I also sent you a PM on this, just ignore. Thanks again, Badman P.S. Any clue where to get or have a part number for front spring isolators?
