Correction: The bushing cloth was meant to be a test, not to be installed. sorry. Do the appropriate damper wire bends to get rid of it. Susan, I have had a noise like that before, and found it to be the damper head hitting the plate. I know you said it looks far enough away from the strut, but so did mine. Try putting a piece of bushing cloth or something between the head and strut. If the noise is still there, ok, I was wrong. Vince Mrykalo BYU
