how do you know you didnt possibly **** up your crossmember ? trust me if you were goin +40mph and that happened it would be a good idea to inspect the crossmember. i have seen your same accident but in a DC and took forever to get that bitch driving correctly again.

good luck

 

Cotter Pin &gt; you

 

damn. im going to go out side jack my car up and check to make sure all mine are there

 

here is what happened

I was on my wat to pick up my little bro from football pratice becuase my boss called and said I had today off.


So i get to a stop sign. When i turn left to leave the stop sign The front of my car dropped like 6 inches ( i ended up being 2.4 inches off the ground
Which was cool so I got to see how close my car will be with a 4.5 drop, But was costly)
Then I began to see parts rolling past me :shock: and I began skidding on my LCA

I was only going bewteen 5-10MPH.

If you look, you can see where after the balljoint left, my axle blew, and then when I landed onmy LCA.

Scared me a bit becuase I love this car, got it runnin less than a week ago.


But this wont keep me back.

I'm going to rebuild the susp on the front and rear of the car.
And while I'm at it, install my Aasco 8lb flywheel.
Es motor mount inserts (ripped two alread)
and soe other small thigns.

If I can I'm going to get some shocks and coilovers too.

 

ouch! Its amazing what that little pin will do for your car.....

 

damn man this suxz... fix it asap that cars clean..its to clean to sit and get dirty

 

Hey -
That same thing happened to me, but it was at the end of the track! Crazy little cotter pins. Charles checks that they are there before I go down the track. Nice DA - mine is a '90 also.
Hope you get your car fixed soon.

 

Damn that SUCKS! good luck with the repairs. sorry about the lip, that same thing happened to my brother when he had to get towed.

 

so what are you going to do about the lip situation? what happend with that?

Yup it is a very critical part. I used to do suspension work all day long and I always always always replaced the cotter pins whenever I removed them.

Were you the last one to do work on your car or was it a shop?
