Now for the right rear wheel. I've numbered the multilink stuff, I'm not real sure the official names. I think all I need is numbers 1 and 2.





Does 3 and 4 look ok?


How about the rear LCA? I was afraid it was also toast, but looks ok with the cover off.


Off jacks and with a tire mounted, the tire sits at an extreme cambered "IN" position at the bottom. The tire sits half on the tread and half on the sidewall.

Related crash porn pics....

I hit a curb at maybe 30 mph, and took out a bus stop sign.

You can see where I hit the sign right at the right headlight/bumper








Right rear wheel


Right front wheel


Rocker damage.


A-pillar vs. bus stop sign

So to fix the suspension I need:

Right front; LCA, tierod, strut bracket/mount, wheel/tire

Right rear; Number 1 and 2, wheel tire

Look right?

Anyone know the real names for number 1 and 2? I think 2 is the drag link and 1 is the tierod

Should you find that you need multi-link member #4 I've got a pair. I'll have to double check to make sure they will work on wagons.

Ok guy's, I'm gonna give it an hour or so then I gonna pull the trigger and order the parts I think I need.

Multi-link part 1 is a thrust arm/pushing link/lower pushing link. 2 is obviously the tierod. And I'm even gonna order from the forum First time since the takeover.
