Shop ran by hacks! I need a radius arm ... Asap
I just recently bought my car and it has always had a funny feel in the passenger front. Today .... big pop .... bad shimmy...
Long story short.
The guy who I bought it from had new radius bushings put in right before I bought it.
Some MORON left the big flat washer off the back side of the bushing and also left the inner sleeve out. SO the bushing pushed back onto the radius arm leaving slack. Hell, nothing at all to hold it back there.
The lock nut he ran it up on the threads too far stripped it out along with twisting it to where it is almost broken.
Why would anyone let shit like this lrave their shop. I have ran several shops in the Atlanta and Birmingham area from single shops to District/Area Manager. I would never have done this when I turned wrenches myself.
At any rate... I NEED A RADIUS ARM TODAY OF TOMORROW!!! MUST DRIVE CAR TUESDAY!!
Any ideas where in the Atlanta area might have one would be appreciated. NEW or USED ..
