Slight rattling on driver's side when going fast

I can hear this slight rattling from the drivers side (in the engine maybe?) when I go above say 40-50 or so. Car drives fine, just wondering if anything is screwed up. God I hope it is screwed up because it gives me a reason to go and replace the stock crap with new expensive aftermarket goodies!

Btw: If you didn't read sig, gen 2 cam -'89 awd

Random rattling

Hey man, just wanted to let you know that my gen 2 does the same damn thing. Only mine rattles like a bastard all the time and even the seats have this mouse like squeak to em in hard cornering. But never fear its just part of the charm of an 89 gen 2. That's awesome that you've got an all-trac, I've only seen one of those out here in so cal. Good luck on the 3s-gte swap, its real straight forward and if you need any help on the parts ya need don't hesitate to give el prototypes a call, www.elprototypes.com. They've done the swap quite a few times and can recite the parts from memory.

I got family in San Diego and Carlsbad over there.

It's not too severe, I really don't know if there is anything wrong with the car. Just gets annoying.

Shot in the dark: think you wanna check the rubber in your engine mounts?

You could be right. When I was going to visit the local Waffle House one morning I accidentally drove over a curb while parking. It's early yet so when it gets more light I'll go see whats up.
