I got side ways around a corner and hit my passenger rear whell pretty hard on a curb. The top is bowed out and the bottom is pushed in. I took the wheel off and compared it to the drivers side, and i found the pieces that are bent. I have no idea what theyre called. Any one know what theyre called? The pics are of the 2 pieces that i see bent. (Sry for the bad quality, camera phone.)
Thanks everyone,
Cory

 

What kind of car is it?

 

look at where those piece (control arms) mount to the body of the car, if u see any wrinkles start shopping for a new car. (the frame would be bent)

 

Its a 91 CRX Si.

The frame was already bent. im going to get it pulled here in a few weeks.
So is that my control arm. Which one? What is the other piece called?
thanks,
Cory

 

i dunno, firewall @ work is blocking those pics, so i see Red X's,

 

Thats your rear trailing arm...

 

the second pic is my rear trailing arm?
Whats the piece with the hole in it?

 

This whole piece is your rear trailing arm...it looks like its the same part in both of your pictures.

 

Let's see if this works...



That will show you an exploded diagram of part of the 91 rear suspension.

--DD

 

I gotta ask. You weren't drifting on public roads were you?

 

Nah, just going too fast.

Thanks for the diagram.
Cory

 

I gotta ask. You weren't drifting on public roads were you?



are you for real with this question...... its a 91 crx si which is a front wheel drive car. and last time i checked there isnt a driver in the world that has or can drift in a front wheel drive car. so to answer your ignorant question no, no he wasnt "drifting" on a public road.

 

LOL, you obviously haven't seen the video of the white EF hatch that is drifting LIKE CRAZY around a track in Japan.

Thanks captain obvious and yes there is a FWD EF hatch that drifts.....

 

i think he was refering to tail draging

 

Oh that piece in your pictures that you mentioned, you don't want that to be bent. You should get that fixed.

 

hold on let me clear something up you so can drift a fwd car i drifted the **** out of my crx si with trays on the bottom of the tires like 2 years ago it was bad ***..........lol

 

hahaha the punk *** kids at my high school were doing that a couple years ago...came back from mcdonalds i guess. i was like Damn! they're putting that thing right sideways. then when it drove by i couldnt stop laughing

 

junkyard!

 

Well, I just took the whole trailing arm off. Anyone know where i can get one? its a 1991 CRX Si disc brakes all around.

Thanks everyone,
Cory

 

If you can't find one at a local salvage yard, you can try the classifieds @ http://www.ef-honda.com

 

Well here's the drifting civic hb for you none believers.

yeah check your mounting points could be fucked but dont worry you can sell it to me then

 

DRIFT BOY! Just buy and 86 Corolla, slap a tofu sticker on the side of the car & call it a day.

 

Yes, you can drift a fwd car. You can do a lot with them actually, it all depends on how you set the car up. I remember reading about a fwd EF built for rally racing.

And the reason why I asked the question is two fold. 1) The Rice and Furious: Drift Edition is coming out and 2) a younger friend of mine actually did that a few years ago.

Damn, some people here are just so quick to be ******** for no reason what so ever.
