The front end is tight, but I suspect a clunk is an axle (note what appears to be a Dodge P/N tag). I have the high performance axle for the SRT brake upgrade, but I need to fix that noise long before I get to that point. I grabbed an axle and spent a few minutes replacing it just now. Also shown is the factory strut mount

The hub caps arrived, the wheels are repainted, the blue 1st Gen parts car neon sold weeks ago, then the 4dr 2cnd Gen Neon sold so I needed a car for my youngest..... so I bought this this morning. George and I will drag it to my FIL's garage tonight before the fight

Oops I did it again. My wife sold the 2cnd Gen Neon to a coworker so my youngest needed a new ride. I already have a perfect color match fender, a buldge hood in the right color but the paints burnt. I have the divers wheel and airbag coming off my car during an upgrade and I bought the passenger airbag. I buffed the take off headlights from my Neon, I bought a radiator and the entire radiator core support section new today. I'll be fixing this one ASAP. I need one fan and a condenser and a section of dash.

I went to the junkyard this weekend. The bumper wasn't actually that bad but since it was tweaked slightly I went to grab another. I found a grille (surprisingly all are removed at the yard) and I grabbed an entire spare sunroof because you don't see them
I also scored some NOS hubcaps for my daughters car, and NOS rear splash Shields possibly for my car, and headlight gaskets for her car

This buldge hood is for my white car, I already have one for my daughter car.
I had discount mount and balance my tires, I installed them and then put my 14's on my daughters car......
EDIT because the second Generation 4dr SRT4 is about 800lbs heavier and when its time to go fast all the stock parts are upgraded anyway
