Wanted: 360 subframe

Due to the size I'd preferably like it to be in the south so I can pick up. But if you're not then let me know anyway.
Mine is bent but repairable. However, I'd rather just replace it.

Guys, I really would like to get one of these please. Don't mind paying.
It's the same bit Wiganer bent. I don't need the wishbones:

Alternatively if you can't be bothered to take off the whole thing, please cut off the lower part which the wishbones bolt onto. I can do the cutting and welding at this end no problem

That'd be a pig to weld without distorting dude!

Perhaps, but it'll be a damn sight better than what I currently have.

plus it would be easier unbolt the subframe rather than make those cuts, good luck with the hunt though!

Indeed, it's just some people don't like posting such large objects. I should also note that it's possible I can come pick it up. Provided you aren't in the backwards end of nowhere.

you wont have any problem welding one of them unless you got really carried away, i did quite abit of welding on of welding on mine and its spot on, just take your time and dont do to much at once,
weres it broke speeedy? is above the wish bone were it bolts to the subframe/x member? sounds like you should be sorted for one now but if you get desperate gimme a shout, theres a small chance i might be able to get one.
cheers

Thanks to all but no longer required. It's a long story but the short one is - a new subframe wouldn't fit without drilling

I had the same problem as I imagine you do now on Fake. It's a pain.

I've sorted the castor but the camber is still negative on one side. We built a slide hammer this weekend down the unit and we pulled the subframe down by quite a bit... We also had a jig which really helped get the radius arm back where it should be but the rest of the car is just too far over to the wrong side...
A solution might be to move the wishbone mount a few mm over but it's still not quite right...
