I googled it, and it’s terrifying. Bad idea to Google that before bed. Thank you for enlightening me on that. I will never look at the toilet the same way again.
so if you try to replace this yourself it turns out you have to jack up BOTH SIDES or the sway bar will be under tension and it will be hard to pull the link out. You can raise or lower the opposite side a bit to get it just right. the dudes on youtube that have a lift might not even think about how the car needs to be lifted evenly. I use arch btw.
But: A few years ago the front right spring broke on my Peugeot 307 van, dug itself into the tire and ripped of the tire when I tried to. move the car. (It was parked when it happened)
Two hours before I had driven that van on the Autobahn at its vmax of about 180kph (about 110mph)
Ripping off the front tire would NOT have been a fun situation.
Yeah my car mechanic told me that some cars/manufacturers have exactly this design flaw where the end of the broken spring slides out and pierces the tire. He mentioned that also BMWs do this. I previously had a VW Golf and had broken springs like 4 times (used to drive a lot on unpaved country and forest roads for work) which luckily doesn’t do this. The rest of the spring stays in and sometimes we only noticed a spring was broken again during inspection. Sometimes I heard the broken part rattle while driving on uneven terrain. Don’t know where I would have ended if every broken spring had pierced a tire…
Lmao it was funny to me how someone would hack into your account on some obscure website and reply with such a benign, non advertisement comment. Glad you got that cleared up haha!
The lack of separation between the toes indicating socks stayed on and no grip marks means it could’ve been worse. When you get that irresistible feel that you have to remove all clothing is when you’re in for a life changing experience.
You’re all alone, scared, sweating, fuckin’ leg shaking, dreading having to reach back there, and, indeed, you know it’s your life on the line. I’ve only been on that battlefield once in my life and I gotta say, it changes you. Hopefully it also changes your diet.
