OUCH

[AkademikONE]

Me and my friend were drifting around in this one industrial are around here. It was around 3am. Long story short, we hit a curb. We want to know what parts we need to replace, and if anyone in So Cal is selling them. Here are pics of the damage. I just need names of the parts that were damaged so we can fix it.

Right front wheel



Right rear wheel



Also, if anyone can help us fix it, we'll provide food and drinks, and some money. Some smokes too if you smoke. Thanks.

youll need a new tension control rod, and front lower control arm, youll need new endlinks if not an entire new sway bar, rear lower control arm, and one hell of an alignment.

and it wouldnt surprise me if you have frame damage, how twisted those pieces look. not good news.

[Exar-Kun]

and probalby a new T/C bracket...and Tie rod (and end!)-Chet

[Dirtylou]

Sheesh...that really sucks. It looks like you need just about everything linked your spindles.

[AkademikONE]

I was told these things from a friend

front: lower control arm, TC rod, bushings endlink

rear: lower control arm

what else?

i'm 100 percent positive in the rear, it's just the lower control arm. not too expensive, but definitely not cheap. i did the the same thing to my right rear once plus even more damage than that and replaced it all my self. to replace the lower control arm is pretty simple, you're gonna need a ball joint seperator though...sometimes called 'pickle forks'. they're about 10$ at any well supplied auto store. i can't tell you exactly how to do it though, i'd bent mine up like that over 3 years ago. i used a chilton's manual and didn't really have any problems.

i'm not sure about the damage in front...

[4felix20]

damn. you guys post fast...

[240marcuSX]

if you want to buy my stock sway bar, and tc rods, ill send them across the country for you, but you can get them easier locally probably.

[240marcuSX]

take a picture of both the front and rear from the side from above and below the brakes, but i think the list we've given you is pretty close so far.

but man, you never know, you might want to take out your damper assemblies too, that front one looks like it has alot of stress on either the top or bottom mounts... all kinds of stuff could be bent out of shape.

rear:right LCA

anything else guys?

[240slidekat]

oh and dont forget to add: not to let simoun drive my car! =)

[240slidekat]

oh you should hit up the junk yards...cheap parts

[AkademikONE]

Yea, I'm hitting them up on Monday.

[240marcuSX]

you might not need another sway, but it couldnt hurt to replace it. and your list seems all-inclusive, at least that i can tell by the photos posted.

[AkademikONE]

People are going to sell me:

front TC rodtie rods w/ endlinks

All I need now are LCA's and the sway bar.

[Anand]

the LCA's are going to be quite a bit of $$ unless you get stock used ones..

[AkademikONE]

Yea, gonna hit up the junkyard for those.

[240slidekat]

i was just at the junk yard today they have 2-3 240s overthere so check it out. i went to the one in santa paula. not too far. off the 126

[Bio_Hazard]

you might have to rplace the stearing link, when i did that to my car i had to replace it.
