I come off road last night n hit kerb side on. Now my Subaru feel like the wheel is coming off when driving. Had it in garage this morning but was to busy to look at it. Said 99% it will be strut but a few other ppl have said it will be the arm n lateral link. Dose anyone know where I can get them cheap. Have checked eBay n scrap yards not having any luck. Don't want to go dealer as will cost to much. Seem getting them parts for a classic is hard. Will the lateral link pack on eBay for the bugeye fit? Thanks

Have a look in the for parts for sale section on here,t there's a few members selling struts may even be other bits you were after

Just looked nothing on there that I can see.

Check for the real damage before buying anything. I know they say 99% but there's still 1% it may be something else. Wouldn't want you wasting money.

To me the arm looks twisted n where it bolts on to subframe. Could be looking at a Scooby going to scrap yard :(

In regards for parts look for anyone breaking a scoob from your year. I've noticed not many parts get listed individually. Just message a few sellers that are breaking. Explain what parts you need and haggle a price.

I have msg a few today, nobody got back to me apart from one. he said nobody takes them off cause they are stuck on, only way to get them off is to cut them off and obviously bushers won't be any good after that as well. Mite sound stupid here but is there not a shop anywhere in the UK you can get the parts from New n cheap ?

Sorry to hear about uou hitting a kurb

I'd get it looked at by sombody who can confirm exactly whats broken before buying to many bits bud .

I'd suggest to get sombody to check the car over properly before driving it again .

Where abouts are you as one of the members might be able to recommend someone in your area .

Unfortunately quite a few classics are getting broken due to age and standard parts are fairly cheap .

I've been breaking a 97 uk turbo that was eaten by rust myself [emoji53]

Still got a few bits left on it but no struts unfortunately.

What model is your car buddy? Import/UK, model year? I'll have a look about.

Darlington in the north east.

The strut isn't the problem really I can get hold of one of them if it turns out to be that. It's the arms/ lateral link / anti roll bar that I really think it is n can't find. It's probably going to need a new sub frame as well soon as it's got rust bad. Really don't want to get rid of her. You don't see many classics on the road anymore.

UK classic 2000

Might be easier to find a good condition second hand complete back end. Less to undo and put back on.

Have a hunt around on www.importcarparts.co.uk you might find what you need.

Ye I seen on a different site someone dropped all sub frame n everything on it, off a scrap car for there own car

Already been on that site today haha

Id hate to see another classic go to a grave [emoji26]

Miles from me (im in suffolk)so can't help with your area myself, hopefully someone else will know

Can't really see a issue in your pic but pics are discecptive , here's one of the same area on my 97uk (I can't see much difference )

Have you tried levering the bushes/mountings to check for play

Or take some crude measurements from bush bolt to bottom balljoint and check against the other side

There's a classic in Sheffield being broken at the moment I'm probably gonna be down there at some point this week collecting a rear arb so I can make enquiries for you

I'm going to go out first thing in the morning n have a good look at everything behind all four wheels and see what I can find.

I live in the north east n only subaru garages i know of are the stealers in durham n middlesbrough.

Unless you could get the scoob to martin n dave - sheffield subaru service.

Just had someone out to look at the car n its the subframe n arms and links that are all bent. Strut looks fine. So need to find someone breaking a classic n just drop the full back end out of it.

Now you know what it is, time to make a shopping list [emoji57]

Think I could probably just get away with a subframe n new bushers for now. But probably going to be hard finding a good subframe for that year car like.

I've got a sub frame, links ect but I'm in Suffolk . It's quite rusty and still on the shell but if you can be arsed to come to me and remove it you can have the whole thing for a score [emoji6]

Can you post a picture mate pls?
