06 Coupe Hit RR Tracks HELP Replacing Front Cross Member-Suspension (PICS)
I recently bottomed out my G coupe on a set of double railroad tracks. I got the car to a nearby friends house and was able to see that I had damaged the sway bar and oil pan as the bar was pushed back into the oil pan which was badly dented and pouring out oil
I was able to get it up on the lift today and replaced the sway bar & lower oil pan fairly easily even though the sway bar brackets were badly bent (had to be cut off).
While the car was up I realized that there was also considerable damage to the sub frame assembly (its called by multiple names based on my search, front cross member, sub frame assembly so forgive me if I don't use the correct term)
Damage to Following:
1. Sway Bar
2. Lower Oil Pan
3. Front Suspension Cross Member (Part# 54400M)
Replaced Following:
1. Sway Bar
2. Lower Oil Pan
Need to Replace:
1. Front Cross Member Suspension Assembly
Need info or advice anything that can help me with removing and replacing the bent suspension cross member as it has knocked the car out of alignment and steering control is horrible. VDC & SLIP lights are on.
I have attached images of the damage and my current replacements. ANY help would be APPRECIATED.
Thanks in advance-
