inside the trunk the two black bars that cross in the middle, i want to remove them so they will not rattle when my sub hits im all dynamatted and if i remove these then i will have no rattles at all. Will i be safe in removing them?

BEETROOT

your trunk lid will rattle if you remove them

suprheero

rattle up and down or slide left to right? the dynamat weighs it down. Has anybody removed these black bars?

suprheero

they are only tight when you open the trunk! when you shut it they just hang there! They are loose thats what causes the rattle, so im wondering if i remove them will it affect the way my trunk opens and closes?

If you remove them you will not be able to open your trunk. Well actually you will but you will have to lift it up manually. And the trunk weighs a lot. Those bars are what helps the trunk lift with ease.

the main prob is not opening the trunk. it wil lbe keeping it from falling down every other sec and cracking ur head open

aight i removed the bars and the only problem that there is with this the trunk lid will not stay open on its own so you have to prop it open or hold it open it is a pain in the ass but i mean it did stop a lot of the rattling

those are trunk springs to keep the lid open. one way to keep the rattling down is to stick some carpet in between the bars

is there a thread that tells how to adjust those things if you didn't have a spoiler and then put one on? Cause I did that and now I almost bust my head open all the time

If not anyone know how?

buy new ones ryan, you can get them pretty cheap and super stiff


I've got 2 huge ones to hold up the back door of the suburban, and that thing weighs a ton
