HELP!
My strut tower bar(Tosco(?)) is making contact with the top of my engine (93 SC400) and causeing a terrible vibration!
It rubbed my Lexus "L" off

Any ideas?

I have the Cusco front strut bar and also had the "L" cracked off on the engine. But I don't experience any vibration. Did you take off those 2 black mounting pieces before you put on the strut bar? If you take those 2 black pieces off, it should fit perfectly and not rub the hood.

Hope this helps,
Tony

 

just some things I would suggest - I was successful at #1:

1. if there is an adjustment for the "tilt" of the middle bar, then incline the bar (if it's flat/oval) such that the appropriate clearance is achieved.

2. you can place washers/spacers to increase the height and clearance.

3. you can adjust the bolts at both ends of the middle bar so as to extend the overall length. Then bend the bar in the middle to achieve the proper clearance.

good luck!
