Robby1870 Posted February 24, 2003 Report Posted February 24, 2003 Well, with my wreck last week, sliding on ice, its seems I have bent the fender well, which attaches to the subframe and the strut. So, I have to have the subframe re-aligned and the fender well bent back correct b/c they cant do a front end alignment b/c the strut is out of place. Im pissed. Anyway, how much is the subframe alignment going to cost? Has anyone had this done?? Im just curious as to a dollar figure. Thanks ahead of time. Robby Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted February 24, 2003 Report Posted February 24, 2003 Never had it done, but I've done it myself. It involves loosening all 4 subframe bolts and using any kind of metal rod to get the subframe alignment holes to line up with the unibody alignment holes. With a lift, it should take all of 5-minutes. I imagine they'd charge a full hour's labor which would be something like $40-60. Quote
Robby1870 Posted February 24, 2003 Author Report Posted February 24, 2003 Oh yeah, also, I have bent the inner fender panel. This means I got to go to a body shop and have it put on one of thier machines and have it bent back straight. If I had full coverage, the car would more than likely be totalled. I hate winter and the uni-body design. Although the uni-body is much lighter, right now, I dont like it very much. Robby Quote
patgizz Posted February 24, 2003 Report Posted February 24, 2003 probably lookin to at least $500 just to put the car on the frame rack, then however long it takes them to do that, and re-align the cradle. either way, frame/unibody damage = $$$$$ Quote
