Broken strut rod

[froggy47]

Hit the k-rail, rear suspension damage, fixable??

Got a little stupid w/ asr off & hit the k-rail. No body damage (miracle?) but trashed two right rims & 1 upper strut rod. Rear wheel now tilts in at bottom.

It doesn't look too bad to replace the strut rod, is the "tilt" adjustable with the rear camber adjustment? It's 2-4 degrees knocked in by my guess.

c4c5, you ever fix one of these? Thanks

Trying to attach pics.

Rear camber adj - how many degrees?

Can be adjusted?

Heres the rod.

That can be repaired - for less than 100 bucks, I imagine

If I'm not mistaken, that's the space-saver spare tire on there? Do you still have positive camber with the full size wheel/tire mounted?

 

[WradDad]

Sorry, I hadn't seen your other post about the K-rail incident. My thinking was that with the spare mounted, the suspension might not be loaded properly, causing positive camber. Guess that's not the case. Sorry 'bout that.

 

[froggy47]

The same with the correct rear rim & tire. It does look like the adj is about in the middle now, with the positive camber. So I guess I can gain some, just don't know if I can get in spec.

I see now. You had the questions scattered all over the place. Try to keep them in one thread and you'll get better results.

 

[froggy47]

Sorry Ken, I can't figure out how to attach more than one pic to a post. Do you know how?

 

[Ken]

No, you cannot attach more than one file with each post, but you can keep them all in the same thread.

When you post the first attachment, simply reply to your own post with another attachment and that will begin the thread. You add more pictures and the thread grows.

Had a bent strut rod, got the adjustable kit for 110 from Ecklers.

Easy job.
