I was wondering if anyone here uses there car for drifting and any kind of racing and has any problems with there control arms? I was just wonding cuz while my car was on a truck being towed I noticed that the looked kinda frail.

 

lol frail?

So what your trying to say is you took the car drifting and did a few stupid things and after you trashed it the car had to be towed?

Which control arm? Upper? Lower?

I just replaced the bushes in the both rear control arms and after 15 years it looks fine to me so if yours look "frail" I must say you damaged it in some way because under normal driving conditions a control doesn't break.

 

no actually i towed it home from where i bought the car cuz the guy took the engine out to rebuild it and while it was on the tow truck i looked around under the car and i noticed the rear lower control arms looked kinda weak and i was just wondering if anyones had any problems with them breaking or anything

 

They're fine as long as you don't drift *into* anything.
