Suspension Damage
Hi All,
My car got slid into a curb, and now I'm trying to assess the damage. So far I know that the driver's side SRS in the seat deployed, the driver's side rims are destroyed, and the front driver's side wheel has a lot of positive camber.
I haven't put it in the air yet to see what's damaged, but I'm trying to figure out what I should be looking for once I get in there. I assume it's probably going to be a busted tie-rod end, probably a busted lower control arm.
What else should I be checking for?
I would like to try to repair this myself, then just take it in for an alignment, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the frame isn't bent (there is no body damage).
Thanks,
proto
