BENCOB Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well, the damage is done and I'm attaching the pictures I've taken with my dumb phone. Looking for help as we don't have deep pockets and we're certainly not mechanics. Can/will any of you locals help with the repair......http://i765.photobucket.com/albums/xx295/AILEBABER/Mobile%20Uploads/SUBARU/0902121421_0001-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BENCOB Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 Can i play? I know your pain and I've actually got a full size spare and one back up wheel for if/when that happens. If you were local I'd offer it to you......Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BENCOB Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 Locals and all please chime in > Parts which shall have to be replaced are: Quarter panel, head light assembly, tie rod, a arm, maybe front bumper but it looks okay. Steering rod looks good/straight/undamaged. After putting car up on jacks and removing both front tires, we did start engine and turned steering wheel. We got steering fluid oozing back out the top of the reservoir, what means this? Further hidden damage? Brake assembly looks straight/good/undamaged......

BENCOB Posted September 6, 2012 Author Share Posted September 6, 2012 This is what my true suby brother wrote after I sent him the photos > well cant tell exactly but looks like its going to need a lower control arm, tie rod inner and outer, and swaybar end link, about like before , will also need a head light and fender, might be able to buff the paint off the bumper, and i cant really tell how the hood looks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
