I crashed my loved hgt the other day ? I've just spent a brave bit into fixing her. New wishbone, inner tie rod, outer cv joint, drop links and track rod ends. All nearly fixed just working out how to change the inner tie rod being as its tight to assess! In need of a wing to as the wheel done a good job to it!!

Few pictures in her glory

What happened? looks like the track rod sheered?

Very lucky not to smack into something very hard and very fast if that's the case!

Subframe missing some paint? Better apply some zinc and hammerite.

I hit a curb on a roundabout and the wishbone and cv joint took the impact! Wishbone broke into 2 and the cv joint bearings where crushed! Neverth when I replace the wishbone I sprayed hammerite under body spray over the paintless areas ��

Wow, scary one! i still wouldn't expect the wishbone to give way!

I know it sounds weird, but it's probably lucky you hit the curb and crash it where and when you did, imagine catching a pothole or something on a country lane at 60mph only for it to snap? think i'd be changing the other side too as a precaution!

Glad the damage wasn't too bad and most importantly of all, you were ok

All Bravo/a and Marea wishbones seem to giveway and shatter in any sort of sudden collisions, mine did the same and on my Fathers marea a while back

Glad you got it fixed and back on the black stuff
