Fixing that could possibly cost more than the car is worth assuming its just suspension damage and nothing else i would try to get parts used but if is got frame damage u might want to just get another car and keep that one for parts. Sorry about ur wreck.

 

hello mbz300 sdl.. thank you fer replying ot mu add.. so but do you know what excatly needs to be replaced in there ?? is it the control arm assembly , or tie rod? or axle, or the coil spring, or the strut + the mount ?? and also how can i check for frame damage on this thing..

thanks

 

I'd be calling my insurance company, not posting on the Internet. I'm not trying to be an ***, but you need to get your car checked out at a repair shop after you call your insurance agent... unless you want to hear a bunch of "maybe it's this, maybe it's that" sort of stuff.

 

hey lugnut,

well the thing is that i dont have full coverage on it .. and well how can i do this insurance thing though?? can you put it in some more details please

tha

 

lets see the list of things that "could" be broken

brakes, control arm, wheel, tire, spring, shock, ball joint, wheel bearing, tie rod, tie rod ends, axle blah blah blah

get it checked out, how are we supposed to know!!!

 

You can't get insurance after you crash. Well, you probably could, but I'm sure that would be insurance fraud. You'd forget all about your car if you got arrested for that.

 

Come on guys give the guy a break he just wrecked is car.

 

I'm trying to point him down the road of least resistance. Too bad it will be an expensive journey.

 

Thats y i told him just to get another car maybe one that needs an engine but has a perfect body and suspension.
