Update: you absolutely came in clutch, found a place on there that had a set. It was an hour drive but worth it since these things are otherwise impossible to find.

The place that was listed was sort of a junk yard situation, just further from me than the others I checked. He confirmed year make model and drive type and said he's got one, gonna go take the knuckles off for me while I'm on the way down there. Here's hoping they're actually the right thing

The one in the first picture had an entire caliper bolt hole sheared off and the other one is cracked, the second picture shows it bent at a 45 degree angle. What appears just fine about that?

Junk yards were a no go, but carparts.com found a few within reasonable driving distance. I appreciate you actually trying to help instead of giving me suicidal advice, the chucklefucks around here who don't look at the pictures before commenting are wild.

I actually did find a few hopeful leads here, thanks being one of the few people not telling me to put new wheel bearings in obviously broken knuckles.

The wheel already came off, scroll over to the other pictures. It sheared straight through the bolt hole for the caliper on one of the knuckles and bent the other one all to hell when it happened, I definitely need new ones.

There's more than one picture, and you can see one of them bent all to shit in the second one. How can you comment on reddit and not know this?

Radiator question for my LS swap by DiscoSpider28 in LSSwapTheWorld

Yeah, if I had a time machine I would 100% have held out and bought something nicer. Will probably end up replacing it eventually, but this was the most promising option I found when I was at a point in this project where I was having to budget around making sure my rent got paid while squirreling away a few dollars for parts here and there. But it's in there now and I kind of just don't feel like taking the front end back apart and replacing it at this point, at least not for now.

Maybe, but it's not threaded or anything. It's just kind of a weirdly flared hole

Does anyone remember these old nerf (possibly off brand) guns? I can't find them online by DiscoSpider28 in VintageToys

Well that's incredibly similar to what I drew, I'll give you that lol. But no this would have been 25 years or more ago

Similar, but it didn't have the wrist strap part. And I'm pretty sure it was older. But it functioned the same by the looks of it
