[Marceldsm]

So i finaly got my car to run new slave and new master car shifts like butter

know i look at my rear subframe and i can see the passanger side subframe is craked

definitely get another one

Pictures would help too. I once had a rear trailing arm that rotted out, it is a long and tedious job to replace and you usually end up breaking other things so I had it boxed in by a welder friend for $80. Has held up great for years.

Dont see why it coulnt be. I would find someone that can tig weld it though vs mig less chance of warping it I would think

well i will replace my bushing whit polyurethane so i will take out the subframe clean all the rust
use rustoleum on it


whay do you recomand tig weld ???

less heat effected zone so less chance of overheating and warping the metal since its thin pressed steel. also depends on where its damaged

Id say replace it go with new bushings while your down there. Cracks and rust are never any good you know its there and it will bug you
