Hey Guys,

So just got some new tyres fitted and apparently i have a bent K frame :yes:

Was not exactly sure what it was and still am not 100% sure apart from it perhaps causing some stability issues around corners etc??

So anyway apparently its actually slightly twisted not bent, so what does this exactly mean is there another more common name for the K-frame part and any ideas how much im looking at to get it fixed/replaced? Should i be panicking is this fairly major? I have not really had any knocks and have been driving it for a while so im inclined to beleive it has been there since day one but not really sure. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

may fitters are newbs.... so are they talking about front or rear? rear cradles are notorious for bending after hitting gutters front K-frames are rarely damaged... they can however move slighlty and need re-alinging

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

      All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
