Good job wise asses.

I mean what specificaly would have bent or shifted to have caused that.

Nothing looks bent on close inspection I am wondering if anyone knows a common or likely cause.

actually it looks like your shock is bent. might be the pic, but take a look.

i saw you broke and bent stuff on your gen d thread.

is the whole rim/tire that close all around or just the spot?

Ok I'm almost postive its the shock, when twist the hub like the car would when its turning it doesnt just turn on the axis like you would think, it moves a little.

Well at least I know what the problem is

Geezuschrist, what kinda reply is that?



Isn't it obvious?



Bent lower A-arm

Bent shock body

Bent hub

Bent subframe - where the lower A-arm connects to the chassis

Broken bushings - in lower A-arm to subframe

Thanks for the understanding Ted.

I know what can be damaged, I was just asking if anyone could see something obvious that I may have missed or had a similar experience as to what to look for as I didn't see anything that was damaged right away.
