Search...and....Bump...

Longshot: What was the verdict? I just did the same thing a couple of nights ago but didn't hit as hard I guess. The steering wheel starts to wobble/shake when doing over 70km/h so I'm a wee bit pissed. Guess I'll call John at Wheels world!

About $1200 plus the wheel repair (not sure of a final bill, claimed it on insurance).

Mine was very noticable driving at 20km/h, and I dont think it would have done 70, so I wouldn't assume yours is as bad (hopefully)

I ended up getting mine towed straight to RMS. Id say give your regular garage a call.

Can't believe that none of you asked for a picture of damage! Post me a pic and I will offer an opinion based on what I have seen previously, carnage, suspension hell, rim rape, coilover rupture, end link cracks.

I'm figuring I just need alignment...
Time for a service before another 400km anyway.

So $1200 for control arm replacement + alignment?
