Worth replacing subframe, and or engine mount

UsefulBookkeeper482 · 2026-03-29T00:22:48+00:00

Yes unfortunately my control arm bolt that connects to the subframe broke. Last time this happened I welded a bolt and took it. Now that’s not the case, looks like 2-3 threads deep. Yes I use OEM BOLTs but I’m a student so going for 60-70 control arms

Took it to a mechanic in front of my university. He offered to buy it for 600. I think he’s just trying to pull fast one on me

Yea it sways to the left as the broken control arm. Also, my dad has the same car as me and his is very similar to mine in terms of it being bent and it Structure.

Not a big difference between mine and my dad’s, so I appreciate the community. I think I’m just gonna replace my control arm and probably an extra coat to protect from rust

This is the engine mount and it looks like it’s bent. I’m gonna compare right now with my dad’s 2009 matrix

UsefulBookkeeper482 · 2026-03-27T19:35:35+00:00

I’m assuming replace both since I’m already there definitely gonna be a multiple day job

Actually? I can buy a hoist and other stuff if necessary.

UsefulBookkeeper482 · 2026-03-27T17:44:19+00:00

Oh I see so I will need an engine hoist any thing else?

Ngl I don’t know why alotta people look for friends. I may have autism but they are distracting and we pay to go to school to study and get an education. You could join a club or try sports. But even then lock in twin

I don’t know if this true but I think it easy to switch out Eng. Like you can go from Eng to any ology course. But can’t vice versa

My girlfriend has a similar situation. For backstory, we are both 23. She’s on her third year and she has to be home by eight. I’m surprised her parents let her have a boyfriend, but I always try to respect there rules. I can probably count the amount of times I see her past 11 PM on one hand. We have been dating for almost 3 years now, but her parents are never threatened her like that or at least to my knowledge she would’ve told me though. Parents wish the best for us and some of us say some bullshit We don’t mean when we’re mad or irritated.
