Ric Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 The strip I have on my '93 Cutlass convertible is rusted and bulging. Can it be replaced? How difficult is the job? Where can I buy the part? This is the way it was described to me... "The heavy-duty metal strip you are describing on your 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass convertible is likely a structural reinforcement plate or subframe connector. These components are designed to enhance the rigidity and strength of the vehicle's frame, especially in convertible models where additional support is needed due to the lack of a fixed roof. The series of bolts hold this reinforcement plate securely in place, attaching it to the car's subframe and rocker panels. Over time, these parts can rust, particularly in older vehicles."
