84 Voyager Struts

Red Ryder 7 March 2005 08:46:10
 I researched the source of a 500 Hz vibration at idle, mostly in the
cab and I think I've located it as being the exhaust resonator
touching the frame.

The questions are:
1.Will replacing the struts increase the clearance between the
resonator and frame.
2.Do the helical springs loose their springiness and collapse, making
the repair above ineffective.
3.How do I tell if struts are "leaking" – everything looks pretty
oily

Notes:
1.I replaced the front motor mount which was chewed up.
2.The other two motor mounts appear intact.
3.Engine size = 2.6L

Thanks for your help.

Are you refering to the catylitic convertor hitting the k frame on accel?
Causing this noise? And does it not do it in reverse?

 Sorry for the repost, but I could not add to the thread because
"Unable to retrieve message ZoKdnZn5lOJrSLHfRVn­-1w@comcast.com "

In response to the last post, I haven't noticed in reverse, however it
knocks loudest at idle. I don't think its a cat (no wires to any
sensor) and it would be touching a "I" beam directly under the
firewall. Thank-you.

clean up the struts. Drive around for a while. Then check the strut
again. If it is oil, it is probably leaking.
