KyL Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Ok so mine just snapped past the bushing on the drivers side front assembly lol. And I tried to remove the actual rod but the bolts are not coming lose. Is it safe to drive with it broken like that? Ill try to get pictures later on to better describe my problem.

jj big shoe Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Umm...not a good idea. The compression rod is one of those bits that helps keep the front wheel where it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unccpathfinder Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 is it your garage or a garage to repair...if its around the block or something I would do it carefully but thats just me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88pathoffroad Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 People have driven on broken tension rods before simply cause they didn't know it was broken. I'd take it real easy now that you know, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyL Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Ya i just picked up the compression rod kit from my nissan dealer yesterday and installed it at my palce. It was 148 dollars but i got to drive my dads 03 ram to go pick it up, lol. And while it's fresh in my mind, I just might do the other one aswell. Thanks guys.
