Cry for help

Post by Zapnut »

Hi Everyone, I am in desperate need of replacement hub assembly’s in including the control arms and heat cover, both sides for my 2.8 inj special.
Following an unfortunate encounter with a curb my wheels are currently pointing in different directions, the garage has had the car for about two weeks now, they have tried replacing just about everything with no luck and have narrowed it down to bent control arms.
However im having a nightmare time trying to find replacements.
I have been looking for a few days with no luck so if someone could point me in the right direction it’d be much appreciated.

Im located in Bracknell but the car is in Reading (Maybank Garage, not sure if anyone here has had experience with them?) Need to get this ASAP.

Regards

I have the hubs and anti roll bar. I don't have the steering arms but I think Rally design or Capri club sell them new.

Could be chassis leg damage?? Dependant on what force you hit the curb, your could have a slight twist in the chassis.
