Car is in the shop...=(

Was leaving IVC today and I took a quick right onto Jeffrey, in the process one of my ontrol arms (I'm assuming) snapped and left the wheel leaning against the wheel well.

It was too dark to see exactly what broke, but my camber is all messed up on that wheel.

Gunna have my uncle take a look at it, but it sucks seeing my baby on a tow truck. =(


UPDATE: I was right. It was the control arm that snapped. My uncle is working on finding another one that will work...at least now the nasty squeeking will go away...

my math teacher is kassman, he is an extremely **** rententive person and sucks at explaining anything. I hate his class.

Oh update on the car....

I got a newer more beefy control arm, it broke at a weld point I'll try to get pics up but no promises. The new one costs 120 bucks, luckily my uncle doesn't charge me for manhours. haha
