VT suspension problem [PICS]

[dobes]

Hey guys
So i was driving out of a really steep driveway and i heard a massive clunk, didn't think much of it but as i was driving, i noticed my suspension was making weird noises each time i would drive over bumps but my steering is unharmed

Checked it the next day and, here's a picture;
Left: Front left suspension
Right: Front right suspension where the problem occurs



How do i go about fixing this? I'm not sure if the rod has been snapped off, it feels quite smooth but if it didn't then i would need a nut right? But there's no thread?

Buy a heavy duty Z-bar set from a reputable manufacturer. There is a lot of cheap stuff on eBay that won't last. Something like the Nolathane item on the link below is what you need - shop around.

not having a go at you blackvxgts, as its not your ad, but the ones listed arnt nolathane ones, they look like either wasp or selby brand, and they look like the ones already on dobes car. personaly i think the two brands mentioned are not good, i have replaced a heap of them, look at genuine nolathane, whiteline+ or superpro, might pay a little more but if fitted properly will last you ages.
