Im so confused!!!!bent subframe?bent coilover?
I bought my car about 3 years ago. Its a 93 honda civic cx. The only problem with my car when i bought it was a little gap between the hood and the bumper which would mean that it was in a car accident. The dealership didnt know anything about the accident. Anyways, My passenger front wheel was ALWAYS sittin back in the wheel well. A year passed by and i put 4wheel disc brakes on my car from an integra and a motor swap. One day i was driving and my lower control arm bolt broke. I was on the side of the road with my wheel almost up in my fender and little fender damage. Good thing i work at a honda dealership and i was seconds away from it. The bolt snapped at the end so the mechanic drilled out the rest of the bolt that was stuck in the controll arm and put a new one on. I dont know if this could have bent my coilover on that side? or bent my frame?. I found a control arm in my garage and put it on the passenger side and it fixed the wheel from sittin back, it actually looked like it was almost in the middle. but NOW my passenger wheel its angled out as if my toe is bad and my drivers side wheel is perfect . i have no clue what it could be. Maybe my toe is just bad and i need another alignment but if i get that fixed and thats not the problem i was thinking about trying to get a different subframe, but i read online that some people have bent the subframe back into place. what do u think i should do? i love my car and i would never want to get rid of it.
