Heres a good one. This is a pic of the passenger side tower in my old Rabbit truck. They are notorious for rusting out on that tower. The P.O. paid _ **$800** _ for this fix if I remember right, I found the receipt. It was deemed structurely solid by several professionals, who all laughed when they saw it. It had a “custom” strut tower brace that someone welded together, that I replaced with a good one. I paid less than the repair cost for the whole truck. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v191/jettagli1991/caddy2.jpg?t=1177386080](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v191/jettagli1991/caddy2.jpg?t=1177386080) --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/rusty-strut-towers-need-replacement/28154)._
