How to check for suspension and structure damage
 

Hi All,

I bought a salvaged 2002 miata recently. It has pretty good damage on front left front and I could look at the A-arms and see that they are bent. I want to check/measure the important parts of the suspension and body to see if I can fix it into a track rat or a DD beater. The problem is, I don't know where to start. Any pointers?

Thanks.

Come on, somebody had done something like this before. I am going to remove the fender and other damaged body parts tomorrow and will take some pictures.

Take it to a reputable repair shop and they can measure it.

All measurements are from center of hole.

Wow!! Thanks Joe. Much appreciated.
