On this car, nothing comes off easy, angle grinders all the way, rusted bolts had to be cut to replace all parts. |

GAZZUZZ:Ok sir. Just that your commercials break delivers a contrast view of the educative thread. Like avoid what I am repairing and go for what I do advertise. My husband like your deep knowledge of automobile though. |

Been really busy all day. So i stopped in rear suspension . The lower control arm rear right had to be replaced to solve the damage caused by the sway bar link with excessive play the rear rotors were badly rusted and required replacement. Same with sway bar bushings. Overall the rust was not that bad. Exhaust though gradually degrading still has a lot of life left, a weld of the support bracket will put it in order . No signs of rust on doors or external frame. Also no signs of rust on engine bay. 1 Like

Fact is if you are patient you will get an awesome ride at a very cheap price. Doesn't matter the country. The rust on this vehicle is not even bad although some people will wish it was worse . I have seen much worse on some US vehicles. 1 Like |

Hi, please can you tell me how much it would cost to change the Stabilizer Bar, Links, & Bushings of a 2008 Toyota Camry (Muscle). One mechanic told me it would cost me 60k to stop the clunking/rattling noise the sway bar is causing whenever I drive through a speed bump. The clunking noise is kinda embarrassing. |
