Damn straight on that. Those Tracker frames are about the quality of pot metal.
My dad traded for a 2nd or 3rd hand one about four years ago and as soon as I looked underneath it, I could see where an entire section of the main rail had been welded in to fix rust. Also, the gas tank had some hokey home made bracket holding it up because the mounting flanges for the original straps had rusted completely off and one of the front caliper tubes rusted a leak within a year. The rear axle housing had such big rust flakes peeling off, I bet it was 10% lighter than when it left the factory. I could go on and on.
What a piece of crap.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
