hey guys, after alot of being stuffed around by repair shops i decided to take matters into my own hands. my car needs the following, reconditioned or second hand limited slip diff, whatts linkidge, suspension and shocks, so shouldnt be to much.
the mechanics quoted me $6000 worth of repairs cause they thought that the chasis was twisted but its not, all thats happened is the rear left wheel has hit the top of the gaurd and flared the wheel arch out a bit causing the door to loose its gap, mind you it still opens and closes properly so hopefully my car will be back on the road soon

Great to hear you have it back together again.
Sometimes we think we have checked everything just to find as you did there was something we missed. Good lesson to learn ;) |
