when i bought my car this peice was laying around in the trunk and i cant figure out what it is. please help





thanks

 

holy ****...looks like a rear lower control arm...what the heck happened to that piece...it should be straight...not ragged doll like that...

 

iat first i thought it was too but theres no way.. this peice is like solid steele.. and theres no way it could be warped and bent liek that without cracking or anything.. it was laying in the trunk next to a motor mount that was dead so im not sure

 

maybe the previous owner hit a curb

Actually it's a front LCA bent out of shape

 

someone might have crashed the car that it was in...that is forsure a rear lca...look at how its mangled up...look at the last pic...the place were the rear shock bolts up to isn't even round anymore...its oval like it go hit from the side and it compressed and bent like it is now...but if i'm wrong then i don't know what else it could be...

 

okay maybe its the front but still...must of been a hard hit...

Indeed

 

might want to check your chasis for damage...

 

my car is a clean title i had my car inspected and specifically checked out chassis and frame and stuff.. the guy i bought the car from also had a 97 gsr and that one go tin a front end wreck.. maybe thats why maybe he jsut had this peice in this car.
