bended my strut... i think

umm i was wondering how much a new strut costs.... i think i bent it...

i was drifting... well attempting to and i hit a patch of gravel and flew into the curb....

now i got it aligned and it pulls left like a mofo. i looked at the wheels and the left tire only has two fingers space between the tire and the mud flap and the right has a little over three.

just how much does a cheap suspension cost... i really dont wanna spend a lot a money..... im trying to save for my trip to europe this summer...

i hope u didnt BENDED it...also i slid on sum ice a few years ago and totaled tha whole rear right side (suspenision wise) i took it too the dealership and everything (damn near) was bent but the strut was fine

also i dunno who th hell aligned u w/ a torn up rear suspension....that sounds like money back to me...u cant properly align a car if the suspenision is broken/bent/etc

good luck man
(btw my parts and labor from mitsu ended up being around 1k)

My little brother hit a curb avoiding a dog last year and he bent the front strut...it's possible, and an easy fix. And you're an idiot for trying to drift a fwd car...so I suggest you sell it and get a bike. Dont be an idiot, you'll hurt yourself and others.

In my honest opionon, you bent your lower control arm. The part will be around $150, labor, around $200-300. If you bent a strut, this will add about $300-400 to get done.

well.... drifting is fun and i had a good drift on the turn before so buh....

anyhoo

its the front left... im trying to get pics but my phone is retarted...

Ahhhahahahha, do you know PGD?

It just so happens that i have 3 sets of lower control arms(NEW) and would sell ya for 100 bux

Ima go get it looked at by a shop

for a 7gen there are two lower arms, a control arm and a lateral compression arm. Both connect into the bottom of the knuckle right next to each other. And the way they are set up, if you bent one you probably bent the other.
Here's a pic of the lower arms without the knuckle installed, the lower lateral compression is the one that's curved, and the control arm come out straight. It's under the axle.

I would look at both of these arms in your case. Jack up the right side and look at it, and then jack up the left side and compare it.

I once had a ball joint seprate while i was driving in a parking lot, the whole thing just came apart. I'd be carful if i were you and driving your car till you get it fixed.

That would not be good... I don't wanna die

learn how to spell.... its BENT

nah uhh... ur lying.... why would you lie about something like that.... :roll:
