I recently replaced my worn shocks with new ones. The other day i was backing out of the driveway and when the front end went over the curb i heard huge clunk. I parked it back underneath the driveway and took a look underneath. Every component of the steering is able to move back and forth, everything is loose. Also i noticed that the passenger side stabalizer bar link is broken and the lower support arm is definately bent. The drag link is able to move up and down where it is connected to the pitman arm, the tie rod moves, and when i jacked the vehicle up the tracbar moved up and down. I just dont know where to start, is everything junk? Anyone have any input? I am running 285 tires instead of the stock 245's, could this be the cause of my problem? Yeah, I am not the smartest guy in the world but before I start spending the money to fix the problem I figure I'd see if any of u car geniuses out there have any input.

 

Nine year old needs TLC. If not comfortable, let a expert do the work. Figure the money you can earn in your profession and the reduction in headaches plus safety factor of experience should be good payback.

 

Yeah I wish that were the case, I am a college student, not much money coming in if you know what I mean.
