I was under my car this weekend replacing the alternator thanks to a great post I found on this site. Anyway, I took the opportunity to poke around with a screwdriver and woops... it went right through my driver side rear suspension ear! One of the POs fixed the hell hole and ear but evidently didn't make it to the other side. I have a 110v MIG that is probably about the cheapest one you can find but will I be able to use something like that to repair this? Is the car even safe to drive? There are too many good things about this car to abandon it due to this. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i193.photobucket.com-7550-1271038663.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i193.photobucket.com-7550-1271038666.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i193.photobucket.com-7550-1271038668.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i193.photobucket.com-7550-1271038672.4.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i193.photobucket.com-7550-1271038676.5.jpg) |

Two words, Back Pain......never saw a driver side go bad, finding a replacement should be interesting. Do they even make that side?
BTW, I see you worked out a deal with Rich on those fakies. I sent him the link on your ad......yer welcome.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Still looking for a windshield if know where one is..... Sorry for the hijack....NOT! |
