I was going around a corner tonight on a hill very rainy and slippery.

The Car was going right wheel first into the curb.. I'm not sure how the wheel hit the curb wheather it was Straight on or parrallel hit.

But here are some damage shots. This is what i thinks wrong. Please advise me what i should replace while doin this.. What do you think would be a good upgrade. etc. etc.

 

hmmm its totaled! nm wait i think it can be fixed. junk yard it.

 

did the same thing to my 89 gtu, I atucally bent the spindle, to was about 3-5 degs down, replaced that to find out my frame was bent, it was still drivable but it pulled to the right pretty bad, even after I atemped to straighten the frame

 

um u need a bolt.

 

It looks like i need a bolt. But that whole thing is bent.

I thought it was just a bolt too... Nope!

 

anyone ever replace this?

 

Ive pulled just about everything there is to pull off an FC except the hatch and any glass, front end stuff is pretty easy

its pretty stright forward, go buy the cheap *** haynes manual unless you already got the FSM dl'd and get going

 

Just find someone with a partscar and have them pull the whole lower control arm, spindle, etc. and get it all t once. Bolt it back on. Shouldnt take more than an hour or 2. You may be very slightly out of alignment at that time, but nothing big or to worry about seeing as these are hellraising cars anyway and they wear tires funny even when in alignment.

Just note that the LCA needs to be from the same series car as yours...86-88 or 89-91. There is no difference in turbo or nonturbo LCA's.

****, if you need an LCA, I have a couple if Im not mistaken.

 

Alright, ill do some lookin around tomorrow. Thanks alot guys

 

Dude you should really think of changing the title of this thread...cuz u dint crash,the word crash sound BIG and all you did is damage the control arm a bit....and dont worry man its an easy fix..if you know whatto do ...it just looks like your control are arm is a bit damage .......if thats what the pic is of
