Update on my wreck
Heres an update on the car I wrecked (my gf's 
)
Les Schwab wanted $1800+ and 3 weeks to get the parts so I said **** that and went and got the parts myself for $210 and a recycler and today I installed them in 4 hours including clean-up
So I am pretty happy, all I have to do now is getr her aligned and surprisingly its really not all that bad, just likes to wander to the left
Anyways here is some pics for ya:
Ohh and I have to wash her too
Dosn't look to awful does it?
The one on the right is my control arm the one on the left is what it should look like
This is what my engine craddle looked like (control arm mounts to it)
This is what it should look like
And this is my endlink on the right next to a good one (yet to be removed off the donar) Anybody want a stock 89-92 swaybar?
I will post some after photos once I get the tire replaced (it was punctured
)
Btw I only paid about $350 bucks all together :-D

Yep, I'd be going straight for an alignment. Just had mine done, you should have all four wheels done at the same time to save alittle. Cost me only $52.50. Your tires will thank you as well.
