Rattling Question

chadrueckert · 01-01-2009, 01:41 AM

Hi Everyone,
My 89 GT which is basically stock rattles like a tin can every time I hit any kind of bump. I use the car as a an occasional street driver and was wondering if anyone had any advice on what I shoudl do to tighten the car up. I am planning on installing the following:
-Maximum Motorsports Subframe Connectors
-Tokico Shocks/Struts
I saw on American Muscle they ahve a kit to replace all of the cars bushings with new Polyurethene bushings. Has anyone done this? Are there any other steps any of you can recommend to help tighten the car up? Thanks in advance!

I think you're gonna have to get under the car and start searching for loose parts, check all the exhaust hanger bushings first, as they will be the first to rot and break apart.
