On my way to home from work, rain was coming down very hard.

As I approached a stop sign, my brakes locked up and car slid

towards the left. I was luckly on the far left lane and my left front

car hit the curb. I got out to see if any damage was done. My

front lip scratched, no bumps on tire or rash on wheel, cool. But,

on my way home it was a work out for my left forearm!!!

My steering wheel was now leaning towards the left (I'm

assuming allignment is OFF) Instead of 12 o'clock (center of

steering wheel) its now at 10-11 o'clock.

My question is is there any suspension damage done? What can I

do to fix the steering issue, becasue it handles like garbage. Any

slight bump on the road throws the car sideways towards the

left... thanks for any input

 

first take off your wheel and check for any damager. if so you will need to replace your arms that were damaged

 

What might be repair costs?

 

well find out what is wrong then i can tell ya

 

pdm racing has em. arms run about 100 from them... or way cheaper from a junk yard (& get new stock bushings if you don' wanna upgrade to poly)..
just my .02

 

same thing happend to me i ate the kurb preety hard goofing off n the rain and messed up my tie end rods and control arms. I say get after market tie end rods or but the control arms...or control arm i'd say pull one from the junk yard. I got mine fromt he dealer ship...one control arm over 100 bones sooo...yea

 

Turns out it was my Left Front Lower Arm. Got a replacement

(NEW) from dealer ship. New part + install $175.

 

thats a good price. make sure your tie rod isnt bent. take out the rubber boot and give it a look. it should be straight.

 

we are doing this today.. total cost... $30 to do it all
