Just had a minor accident - suspension damage?

tibor370 · 04-09-2021, 02:47 PM

My last post just got removed? I don't understand what happened.

I'd consider myself lucky if it ends up costing less than $1500 to repair not including bumper respray cost.

I'd say I got hit at around 20mph.

Here is a youtube video I took of the affected wheel. I don't see anything obviously damaged. Does anyone?

Things that might be bent.
1. Rim
2. Upper control arm
3. Lower control arm
4. Steering knuckle
5. Tie rod end
6. Rack and pinion
7. Frame
8. Engine cradle

You really don't know until it goes to the shop.

I saw it. It may have been automatic by the server. There is some rule about members needing 10 posts first before they can link photos or videos. An admin (PM Trips) should be able to override that and restore a removed post if so requested.
