So long story short I am and idiot.. I was turing a corner at high speeds and there was sand on the road... understeered into a curb.... F'ed my rims.. not so stoked so I put the old ones back on.. but now I noticed the whole tire is pushed back and rubs on the firewall side of wheel well... So what did I bend .. Tie rods ? control arms? what do you think I am looking at for repairs... ?
THanks for input all, So today I took the wheel off... problem or should I say problems were obvious.. Control arm retardely bent. Sway linkage bent.. suspension top hat bent. not sure about tie rods.. probably also bent.. so I began taking it apart... however the ball joint bolts spin... how do you take them off?
you bent your control arms. it is probally a pain to drive.
haha
i slid in the rain once (3 differnt types of warn tires, i was litterly waiting for my new tires to come in from tirerack.com)
i hit the curb, and bent my tire all the way back to the wheel well.
it is jsut the control arm, you might have messed up the pastic parts down there , but maybe not. a control arm runs for about $150ish each. so buy the one multi pack on ebay.
that ebay pack is worth like $600 ish in parts, so jump on it. i would replace the tie rods anyway, but if you dont want them, i will buy them for $60 for both =]
