wheel alignment after an accident

[fourtheboys96]

how much would it cost me to have this???

the front right wheel was hit HARD by a speeding adventure. pumasok ng bahagya yung gabitan ng shock absorber and spring. from my estimate mga 4 to 6 inches yung nabago (tigas talaga ng kotseng ito corolla 92 gl considering the impact). yung ibang damages i think is minor and all related to this major damage.

how do they usually fix this??? sa probinsya ako so i guess wala masyado hi tech solutions dito.

tnx!!!

Go to a shop with a frame alignment machine (vinj knows who these guys are). They will align the frame back to spec so the mounting points are realigned. Then you can have the suspension aligned at a suspension shop afterwards.

san province ka? imho, nung na accident ako sa dagupan two years ago, ganyan din nangyari dun sa service car ko na corolla. may nakita akong servitek dun, sila nagayos. then proceeded to baguio afterwards using the same car. nakabalik pa ako ng manila...

damage was around 8k. paid it via CC, reimbursed it via car insurance.

talaga??? kaya sa servitek??? kasi meron dito sa amin malapit na servitek just in case wala ako mahanap ng talyer na mpagkakatiwalaan.

Ouch... yan yung isa sa pinkaayaw kong damages, structural. Malamang damay na rin yung control arms and other connected suspension bits.

What most shops will do is to stretch it back to the original position.

You can try going to Velocity Motors along Shaw and Nueve de Pebrero, they have a chassis alignment rig there.
