That would seem to make sense, since that would put that C-shaped opening in the welded-on strut plate (just below the tang) in a position to accommodate the drop link bolt.
If that’s the case, where did it go in my case?? In my pic, it’s clear that the strut has slid
downward relative to the carrier, but there’s no way that tang could fit down into the narrow gap in the carrier that the plate itself fits into. (This is hard, because the car is at my son’s house 25 min away—I can’t just run out to the garage and look at it. I’d ask him to go take a look but he’s working today. We're hoping to get back on it this evening after he gets off work.)
Is it possible some struts (ie these on my car) don’t have that tang at all?
