Reply to "Right wheel thump"

Sounds like the same area that I use also. My car sat so low when I bought it (2" from pavement to metal) that it scraped when ever I went over a speed bump etc. and when we first put it up in the air this area was all bent up from dragging and probably being jacked up there (do not know how they got a jack under it!). So Les Gray welded in a solid peice of steel 3/8"x approx 4"wide and cut to fit. Then smoothed it all out before we repainted the engine compartment. You cannot tell at all, but it is solid! I know most of you are thinking why was I adding more weight, but with the aluminum suspension, wheels, Fontana engine block and C302B heads, I did not feel the little weight would ever be noticed.
