That's right, the top of my front driver side strut snapped off. The strut bar was still holding the top of the strut, while the strut itself is inside the strut tower (somewhere).
WEAK!!!!!
So now I'm driving my '69 pickup.

Upgrade indeed, check out the group buy on the OMP Front strut tower brace in the Group Buy Section. Bright Yellow, but $99!

I've had it with the STB's. I ordered a pair of the spax struts from BAT.
Thanks for the huge swarm of sympathy everyone. j/k
