d4rr3n Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Well this morning was not good; wet road + lack of experience and i spun the supra and the back wheel hit a curb side on. Seems like i have bent two bars one has a ball joint on one end and they both attach to the hub. Anyone got the parts catalogue for the back drivers axel, or any idea where or who i would be able to get these from? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 How much driving skill/experience you have with rwd cars? Posted via Mobile Device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 A bit more since the accident. We live and learn, that's why we are kings of the jungle, hopefully. Thankfully Toyota made the suspension links fairly sacrificial, so any minor wheel impact should see the subframe and shell untouched.

d4rr3n Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 Yep thanks to Toyota making these almost indestructible got the bits for just over £100. Only had the supra 3 months ish and a MGBGT that has been RWD so not really alot. Booking on an advanced driving course which includes skid pan instruction; too late now but would like to know that i would be in a better position to handle this if it happened again.
