Suspension bent.. possible solution??
I don't know how it happened or when, but when i went to put my lowering springs on a while back, i noticed the front drivers side was lower than the other sides. by about an inch or 2. it was clearly visible. i went to get the car aligned and they told me i had a bent frame or sumthin and that a special shop would have to fix it. i was thinking, would a coil over kit such as the Skunk2 help to "adjust" the effects of the bent frame or wutever the problem is? like raise the coilover on the front drivers side to match the others? i know it sounds ghetto, but fixing the frame is gonna cost way more than the car is worth, but my tires are already starting to show signs of needing to take care of this. thanks in advance!!
Get the frame straightened from a body shop or Get the frame straightened! There not as costly as buying a new car. Find single owner or family run shops they will proably work $$$ with you. If you can't do that junk ur car.
the 2 places i quoted wanted $800+ to fix it. maybe im just cheap, but thats a lot of $$ to just "un-bend" something. and sorry, junking my only car isn't really an option. any other suggestions?
No, unless you wanna become REALLY good friends with an owner of a body shop or start working there and maybe get a discount or get it done free.
just my .02 cents, when a frame gets bent it's really hard to get it the way it was, i have never seen a car that got the frame worked on finish close to the way it was, off course, i don't work on that part of automotive, but my suggestions are..... sell the car and try to buy a used one in better condition, try to take all the aftermarket parts from one to the other and sell the bad car.
The way i see things, its easier to rebuild an engine, buy a good tranny than to fix a frame.
that's just me.
