Why i have been MIA

Well ive been taking care of problems, such as court dates, being sued, and other minor things.

Last weekend i started feeling wierd things in my suspension, so i got it checked out monday, and it all checked out. Then tuesday it sounded like i needed a rear shock mount. Then a big clunk, then This







Rear trailing arm ripped straight out. A common problem became my problem tuesday night leaving me stranded in west covina. Thanks to some great friends the car had a spot to stay for the night and i had a ride home. Last night i got the car towed to Castros customs on 12600 sherman way north hollywood for some repairs. Big thanks to chris for getting it done my 2pm today.


and here are some pics by mr ali@home






In the end this experienced humbled me and showed who my true friends are.
Big thanks to puldog, for the nice spot for my car and keeping me strong. and castros customs for a great job once again.

so the car is all fixed and back on the road?

was the piece easily fixable or did you buy aftermarket replacements? or was it more of a custom job and reinforcing both side so it shouldn't happen again?
