well i was pulling out of the parking lot at the local autoparts store. this pothole didn't seem that deep but it did a number. Heres the carnage.Cracked the Welds
So to help with my clearance problems i put some sportlines on today

 

thats sucks a fat one mayne

 

yes sir it does

 

eep thats a 200$+ mistake lol

 

u talking about the ac condenser

 

ok...so you had problems with clearing stuff and infact impacted and damaged the car...but yet you lowered it further as a solution...

your're as bad as the guy the other day that posted a thread about getting a tint ticket and getting it replaced with darker tint....


more money then brains i guess...

 

well considering i am moving to ks in a month. i won't be driving on craptastic roads anymore.

 

well then that makes more sense

 

and i learned my lesson to watch for potholes no matter how they look

 

hahah, and speedbumps, and curbs, and small fuzzy animals ...

 

i will take a pic of this one when i am back over there. it doesn't look like it would do anything to your car but. guess not

 

welcome to my world haha, on coilovers, i've high-sided myself on tricky speedbumps before.

 

Do you think some road kill will scrape now

 

absolutely haha

 

well. on a good note. The balt looks awesome.

 

Damn that sucks, MO roads are TERRIBLE

 

can't forget the great state of Arkansas. We have some craptastic roads ourself.

theres ur replacement h/e, sucks ***** what happend, if it was in a parking lot where the pothole was u may be able to get the owners to pay for the damages for not maintaining a safe driveway

 

seriously

 

you guys with crappy roads would **** if you saw out roads here. most of out roads are perfect other than a few back roads. most of out back roads are even in good shape, just bumpy.

 

lol, my H/E rubbed a very small hole in my condesnor...dealership wanted to charge me 1700 to fix it, much higher then your 200

 

up it doesnt take a lot to fix it, just some time, its a 2hr job max, 3 if your a a ******* GM tech who doesnt know wtf u are doing....dont see why theyw ould charge 1700

 

I dont either, They said they wont warranty any type of holes no matter what, and they wont weld it either, so they would have to replace the condesor, replace the green oil and freon and recharge. Im going to look into an a/c place that shouuld be able to weld it. Its a very small hole. But yeah, dealership told me 1700...thats after I paid 100 just for to tell me what I told them.

 

mine is a very large whole. i will probaly just need a new condeser

 

new condensor: 120 on ebay
recharged kit @autozone: 30-50bucks depending on location
3hrs of labor

and ur set...no need to have a dealer do it, also the dealer will use a delphi condensor, autozone carries it for 250...so the thousand dollars they are charging u over isnt bc they use better parts, or bc it takes them 10+hrs to do, any compedant tech can do it in less than 2hrs...im actually going to make a how to on this when i replace mine, it has a hole in it, all the freon is gone, so its empty...im replacing soon w/a used stock one, and will posrt a how to for replacing it to give everyone a idea on it, labor wise and what has to be done aswell
