GP1138 Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 I need the community's help here. I need anybody's opinion on what it's going to cost to fix this, what the problem is, and if this is fixable by me, or needs to be fixed by a shop or something... http://images.cardomain.com/member_images/8/web/464000-464999/464689_6.jpg PLEASE HELP! I need any help you can give! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93GTP Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 Well that's a pretty small picture, but I can pretty much see what happened. Obviously your balljoint failed (looks like the nut simply fell off it?). It can be hard to say what else is going to be to be replaced without seeing it better. Definetely gonna have to do something with the inner or outer tierod and possibly the rack. You may have damaged your axle, maybe not. The balljoint itself is cheap to replace, is the control arm damaged at all? It probably isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GP1138 Posted November 30, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 I don't know why it was flat, read the thread "The continuing saga of my shitty Grand Prix" in the General section for more information on what actually happened. After I get home from the radio station tonight, I'll post more pictures. I'm thinking of selling it to a dealer or one of you on w-body.com if anyone's interested, for a down payment on a newer, known good car. I don't know where I'm going to find a dealer willing to buy this POS, but maybe I'll get lucky. I'm really pissed at this car, and I don't know what's going to happen to it.

Slade901 Posted November 30, 2003 Report Share Posted November 30, 2003 It looks like the outer tie-rod section is missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
