worn strut mount? 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be jenkins on  Thu May 5 02:39 CST 2005 [RELATED]

While do some routine maintenance on my engine, I noticed that the strut cap (the 2-in diameter metal disc) was positioned such that it was not physically touching the top surface of the mount - there is about 1/8 inch gap. Same on the other side. When I jacked up the front end, the cap came into contact with the mount. Is this an indication of a worn strut mount/spring seat? BTW, my car has 105K miles and its original struts.
