Hey all,

I was able to replace the strut mount stud that I snapped and have driven the car a bit. For anyone else as dumb as me, you can pound the stud out fairly easily to replace.

I still have the steering wheel shake at seemingly random times. In the next week or so I will replace the inner tie rods and more thoroughly inspect my brake calipers, in particular the slides. Also, while replacing the strut mount stud I snapped the sway bar end links so those got replaced as well. The bushings at the control arms were shot.

I'll let y'all know what happens in the coming weeks.

*As an aside the new Corteco motor mounts have made the car significantly smoother. The throttle seems more responsive with the tourque going where it needs to instead of rocking the engine to the side. Also, I don't know if genuine mounts are like this but without the engine running the engine kind of jiggles if I try to rock it side to side by hand. Lastly, the low end sounding knock I've had for the last 70K miles or so (almost sounded like rod knock) has completely gone away with the new mounts.

Thanks again for all the help everyone
