It's time to put your mouth where our balls are.

I know you, you know you, and I know you know that I know you.

I just pulled it out like 30 min ago. i can see that i have a bent front lower strut bar (know where i can get this part?)... and my hub isn't attached to my disc break (Can i tighten this??).. man. money is rough when you don't have a job.

if you break something you might as well upgrade the part than rather replace it with another one..

93 strut rod has no caster adjustment so you're screwed if it has to get adjusted even with a new strut rod. my advice get a cusco tension rod set or one from tein. at least its something new on the car and its adjustable.

Hey Deni, maybe you should get this or this

SF-Jim · 06-10-2009, 06:03 AM

[QUOTE=masagsxr;455699]Yup... this i easy. Just take the door panel off and you shoul be able to see what is needed to take the handel off from the inside.

You mean remove the interior door panel and I should be able to see the exterior door handle mounting?

SF-Jim · 06-10-2009, 06:05 AM

[QUOTE=Mark_Dorman;455711]Hey SF-Jim,
I have extra door handles if you need one. Let me know

Definitely interested....red passenger side exterior door handle, right? How much do you want for it?

datguydeni · 06-10-2009, 10:08 AM

so i just called the shop. and they did have to bend it so they could move the caster more.... reason why i have a bent strut bar.

Davis · 06-10-2009, 11:27 AM

I agree with Darren, upgrade!

Hey Ren, just toss there stuff out.

Yes... remove the interior door panel and you should see how its mounted from the inside. Only way to find out is if you take it off. I would not try to pry that off from the outside. There should be a couple of nut holding it to the door

datguydeni · 06-10-2009, 11:31 AM

question is where is my suspension messed up lol xD. kinda's annoys me that i have a bent strut lol

Davis · 06-10-2009, 11:34 AM

Umm I thought you said the strut rod was bent (which it is).

Just get the cusco set and your good and you'll have the adjustability like what Darren said.

datguydeni · 06-10-2009, 11:35 AM

i called the shop and they bent it so they can move the caster more o.0
