1996 Holden Commodore Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I have recently crashed my VS commodore into the curb now my back wheels are shifted to the left side so my back right wheel is up against the body of the car. The bar underneath that is bent but I donno what its called and also my right wish bone looks to bent. And do you know how much would cost to fix?

Hi there,

You will need to get a panel beater to do a chassis drop test on the frame as I feel that the rear suspension attach points will be over stressed and alignment will be a real issue, these are not strong in the rear end and any substantial damage like what you have described can be a lot more serious than suspension components, remember there are bolted to the body so what ever stresses are involved the body will flex and twist as well.
