Replacing my Monza muffler with something quieter and noticed one side of the exhaust was a good bit lower than the other. Once the exhaust was removed, it seems the whole engine + transmission is rotated a bit towards the driver's side.
Any clue as to why this would happen? Pics below. Thanks in advance. Mark    |

Since the ear broke twice in the same place there are 2 possibilities:
1. bad welding the first time 2. there is some stress on that ear due to body deformation. Make sure this is not the case before you make the repair and brake it again. |
