Random suspension question involving toe

tsj · 03-28-2013, 08:39 PM

Long story short, I hit a curb and bent what I thought was my LCA, but according to most websites I was incorrect.. And a traction rod. So I replaced them both, and I have a little bit of toe on that one wheel. It's my rear passenger wheel, it sits a little bit more in towards the front than it does the rear. ( Like this \ if you were looking at a birds eye view ) but not nearly as severe anyways. Anyways, I was under my buddys 350 the other day and part number 11 on this diagram looked just like the one that I replaced on my car. And when I was replacing mine, I noticed it looked different than the one on my drivers side.. So, is it possible that I accidentally got one for an 09 350z? I'd imagine so.. but the question is, could it work in my car with a proper alignment? or should I replace it? I'm fine with replacing it, I've found it for 180 shipped.. just sucks I gotta re-replace it. But i'll do it at the same time as my coils!

If it looks different than it is. I'd get the right part. But there is no 2009 350Z. Only 2009 370Z.

Ahh I see, I was told they still made 350zs in 2009, thought that was kinda weird.. thanks
