    I’ve been hearing a curious rattle when shifting into 1-2, on the high end may e 3000rpm, I think this mounting plate u Ed my air intake assembly. A bracket just above a bolt I can see has clearly snapped, metal on metal rattle, not when shifting never at idle or while in gear driving. Anyone know what this bracket is called so I can find a replacement. I can seem to find a label break down to f it. Any help would be super appreciated. Thanks!!F39D247A-0479-423F-8EC3-0AF187396B9B.jpg

    It doesn’t need a replacement. A rattle from that spot is very common. Just apply some pressure to that heat shield and it should stop rattling. Or replace the rubber grommets that go from the air filter box to that heat shield. You can use fuel hose over the bolts too quiet it down

    I was able to get a sticker on the one good bolt and crank it down but alas it wasn’t my dreaded rattle I think I have a loose old exhaust clamp some where up in there thanks for the info
