r2ck_p Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Hi guys, I noticed this thing in my engine bay down by the exhaust manifold, it doesn't seem to have a purpuse. Any ideas what it is? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creative Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 (edited) Looks like an earth. Where does it lead to? Edited June 21, 2013 by creative (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Could be a bracket to show if the chassis is still straight, after a crash if the chassis is twisted then this bracket is usually distorted in shape. But I'm not 100% on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm not 100% on this That sounds like a sensible answer. To be honest who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashbuster Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 its the banana shape that goes to the front subframe hard to tell from the pik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2ck_p Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Yes the banana shaped bracket with three bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTurtleshead Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 It very much does something! Those bolt heads belong to two large bolts, that in conjunction with some equally large nuts(lol), hold on the front sub frame! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashbuster Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 when you tighten the subframe from underneath its best to get someone to watch these because they turn (bolts) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r2ck_p Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 Cheers pal, I knew someone would know. Well that solves that then I am not going to remove it to refurbish, don't my subframe coming apart. It very much does something!
