I'm the big one on the left. Just bought that beautiful 2001 Z28 Camaro from a fellow friend and longtime autocrosser. I've been autocrossing for 20 years with the NNJR, SJR, and Philly Regions of the SCCA and this is my first personal RWD car (although I have autocrossed a wide variety of cars). Looking forward to learning a ton from you all as to how to maintain and develop the F-Body. I'm excited at the opportunity. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Front spindles on these cars seem to bend with little provocation. They won't bend sitting in your garage, but it doesn't seem to take much of a bump to bend one. Typically they bend in the direction of positive camber and I wouldn't be surprised to find a bent on after an impact like you describe. Check the alignment and see if the settings match side to side, then see if the adjusters are in roughly the same place in their respective slots.
Glad it wasn't worse and nobody was hurt. |
