According to my GN, your sway bar is upside down. It needs to be removed and flipped end for end so the curve between the frame and the a-arm is shape like a smile instead of a frown

the things ive found in this car make me think twice about some people :frown: on the side note,I puled the turbo out and it was pretty good so im putting in new gaskets and cleaning up the engine bay a little bit

Is that a crack at the bottom edge of the frame ?

its not cracked,the factory chasis is 2 piece in the front so it kind of split open,Ive wrapped about 3 g-body chasis so im just going to pull it out and bead over it

Man, that thing must have made a LOT of noise, as it was pounding its way into the frame. Not to mention causing some handling problems. Car would start to lean in a turn, then the sway bar would hit the frame- sudden change in roll rate. Could NOT have been good, or safe.
