    Strut Bobble bracket question

    1992 Lebaron GTC - 2.5L T1 with 568 trans

    I have a question about the strut bobble bracket - there are 2 holes. The top hole is bolted to the engine block (or is it the tranny? I can't recall...) The bottom hole appears to be a bolt hole and it lines up with a hole in the block/trans, but that hole isn't tapped. Is there supposed to be a dowel or something in that hole? With only 1 bolt attaching it, wouldn't that bracket tend to pivot on that bolt? It seems there should be something in that lower hole?

    I tried attaching a photo, hopefully it worked.

    The bobble strut bolts to a bracket on the trans differential housing on the top side. On the bottom side is bolts to a bracket welded to the crossmember.

    Tom,

    Good to hear from you! I hope life is treating you well.

    To answer your question in more detail, here is a picture of the differential cover, showing where the bobble strut bracket mounts:

    NOTE: the Diff cover in the picture is from a 520/555 so it may appear slightly different than the 568 cover, but the bobble strut location is the same.

    The two long bolts go through the diff cover and thread into the transmission itself.

    Let Fleckster and/or I know if you need more information.
