Suspension Problems???
moved this from another forum, hopefully more responses here;i have a 91 nissan sentra se with about 120k miles. it's my second car and with the Q and a work vehicle, it get's no use anyway, the shocks in the back are totally shot, but knew that. this week the inspection ran out and i think my neighbors complained about it sitting on the street and it was towed. when i picked it up from the impound yard the rear suspension was totally F**ked!!! the rear passenger tire was facing in. i think it happened during towing, but could never prove that since it has been sitting. the drive to my mech. was quite an adventure (as* wiggling all over the place. luckily it was close by.anyway, i really hate to trash the sentra, otherwise its in very good shape and started right up (with a new battery).any ideas of what i'm looking at besides the struts in the back???? why would the wheel be facing in???? if this isn't a major repair ($$$$), i'd really like to keep it (esp. since we have all these sponsers with discount parts).any thoughts????
the tow truck driver likely hooked his cinch down hook to one of the rear control rods and bent it which pulled your wheel inward when he secured it to the flat bed. Is it worth fixing??? dont know got any pictures of it? they make excelent commuters. look the car over real good , does it need anything else to be road worthy?

Re: (NISTECH)
otherwise, the car is in very good shape. runs strong, started rite up, just the suspension as far as in know. definitily needs the struts, but just don't know how much or what else the rear is going to need?????
