The overall assembly is straight and I don’t see any bends or damage but the area circled in yellow seems to be calling out for a repair. Looks to me like this can be straightened and is not critical but wanted to ask. Oddly both sides have the same damage.
Thanks!

Full Version: Just repair this a-arm bend and move on?
Get a straight, good, used set.
Driveway bottoming out... I’d be more concerned about what is happening in the 9:00 region of your circle.
If 914, these are hard to give away, should be able to get used cheap (if not free).

Plus those bushings are toast.
Get 2 new sets and the tool from 914rubber.
2 sets because you may damage a bushing installing them, Mark buys back any unused bushings. A member here has a good how to vid.

Thanks guys.
That bent lip “just” locates the bushing, right?

Just a bushing stop.
I had a bent cup, not as bad, on the car and the bushing squeaked constantly. Annoying. Solved that with Elephant poly-bronze.
