Re: I really messed my car up

[VWN8@jps.net]

I did somthing like this.  I spun out of a off camber 90 deg corner at about
25-30mph.  When I hit the curb it broke a big chunk of rim off and bent my
trailing arm in.  I used a Jetta 1 beam as a replacement.  Suprisingly my
stubaxxles were not bent.  I bet all you need to replace is the rim and the
trailing arm.  Make sure to check everything carefully while everything is
apart.
