You think this is my problem?
Ok I bought a 2000 Firehawk about a month ago with 100k for cheap. I wrote in with a question about what could be causing my car to walk around the road. Well I had it aligned and he checked the front end, all he found was slack in the lca bushings in the rear. So anyhow I finally got some time to tear the car down and this is what I found.
I could see a dent on the bottom of the bracket where the shock mounts so obviously the girl who owned it before me ran over something pretty hard. So I think it's time for a new lower control arm.

Yeah i would say thats your problem. If you want to get a good set of lca's give me a pm. I have adjustable and non adjustables. Glad that didn't cause you to get in an accident.

Yes I agree... that most likely was the issue. We also have a inexpensive set of control arms at $109.99 a set seen here- www.umiperformance.com/2015
Hope that helps!

Alright, well right now the car is stock all I've done is a 3.73 and bought me some black zr1s with 315s out back. I plan to do a little bit(headers and such), but it won't be a race car, mostly just a weekend car. Would non adjustable tubular arms be what I need?
