Hi, just wanted to know if anyone had had this problem before, I have a VZ Ute with 18's on it and lowered King Spring Coils, i had the 4 Point Camber Kit put in when it was lowered, i was driving around tonight and my rear sub k-frame snapped, i was like, what the f*#k just broke, i'll add some photos when i can!

my makes vs clubby did that caused by been stupidly low and havin a locked diff. which just put too much stress on it.

but i have never heard of it in a vz. i suggest replace all the standard items and take it back to holden

i found out what caused it, when i had the camber kit put in about 9 months ago, they bottomed the inner bush on the sub k-frame, then put bars inbetween the outer bush and k-frame, thus putting stress fractures onto the metal, they aint paying for it, all i got was "I don't want to know about it", so im not going back to them. i ordered a new k-frame from holden (gotta love it when family works there) and got it at my brothers price of $370, new camber castor kit on order also as it sheared the head of the bolt off from the other side of the bush, not bad for $43, nolathane!!

If I paid money for someone else to fit somthing this important and it failed due to improper fitting, I would expect them to fix it ASAP and kiss my ass while they did it, thats not somthing simple not forgetting to tighten a oil cap, or forgetting to check a battery, thats a life threatning issue, it could have coused a accident

Rant starting

If they didnt honour it I would smack **** out of the smart arse and put him hospital for a bloody month, make sure you scar his face so every time he looks in the mirror, he thinks of you, this sort of carry on makes me wild, gives other mechanics and workshops a bad name, if I did somthing like that to a customers car, we would fix it ASAP out of our pocket and we would be polite about it too, as its totally imbarrising

OK rant over

Hopfully it all gets fixed soon, I would hate to see that happen to my baby
