What is the wishbone?

Basically said the other day if I was to get a K10 it would be a black 1.3 SuperS, I'm seeing this as a sign from the powers that be!

you would need to take it to a garage because its the mount on the chassis thats cracked, hit a big pothole, was gonna get a mate to weld it but he couldnt do it,tiz a good little car but i aint got the money to get it sorted

not the wishbone thats screwed its the mount, you might be able to cut it off a donor car and weld it on but i dunno how strong it would be.needs to be able to take a lot of stress

this is just my penny worth...

I think (would need to check up on this) that you would need to replace the whole mount and the chassis leg arround it, as it is pretty pretty important to the saftey of the vehicle.

I know round my way you get an automatic fail mot wise if you've been welding within 50mm of any chassis / spring / shocker / wishbone mounts etc, as they are said to be structural saftey wise.

That said their is no reason to say you cannot fit or fabricate (just make the measurements at least twice!!) a new mount PLUS the piece of chassis it attaches too. That way you get a safe repair and no worry your going to end up in a ditch.....

Also insurance wise if you bodge it and it does fail, killing of injuring some-one, it could be argued (by some no win, no fee type ...**~~**) that the person who failed to do the work properly is liable legally, and that opens a sorry mess of pottage - I know of a mechanic who was charged with manslaughter, because he failed to refit some brakes properly, and the inevitable happened.........

makes you think!

anyway all im saying is if you do it, do it properly, for the saftey of you and others.

please understand, i wasnt having a go at anyone, it was just a gentle reminder, as there was talk of cutting parts of another car etc....

no offence meant, just backing up your comments.

prety sure that it comes as part of the steering column oval. and this can be replaced without replacing the whole arm. thought still requires all the steering rack etc to be removed.

I'm probably somewhat older (ahem!) than most on the forum & I have had many attempts at trying to resurrect corpses. The most obvious points to make are: if there is severe rust in one place the rest of the car can't be far behind, K10's aren't yet that rare - the cost wouldn't justify the result, it would make an ideal donor for a more viable project. I know it's a tragedy when you have to say goodbye to such a nice car, but don't forget "you can't polish a t*rd".:down:

thats just the thing, it aint severely rusted and the rest of the car is ok apart from a couple of wee bits of surface rust,gonna get my mate to have one last look at it at the weekend see if he can take bits off my spares micra and weld it on safely,if not its gettin sold as parts or everythin transferred into another 1,bt my spares car is a disgusting brown colour with the diorehaa dash.... and it smells funny

Calling Quickdraw a timewaster, prior to speaking with him was uncalled for. After chatting with him, it was agreed to edit prior post and remove reference to timewaster ( done before posting above in case anyone is confused).
