Front Sub-frame Replacement
Hello MBWorld,
Sadly bottomed out hard on a pot hole (In the rain) and bent 1 of the 4 arms on the sub-frame slightly. Car started pulling to the right very minor. Was told by dealer that to get an alignment I would need to fix sub-frame first. Was quoted $1800 for parts and $600 for labor.
I am mechanically inclined and have searched for hours but the only threads and google searchs I have come across are regarding REAR sub-frame.
Was wondering if anyone would be kind to pull the front sub-frame replacement documents from WIS or EPC.
Thanks guys

MBWorld Fanatic!
no need for instructions, it's very straight forward. You will need to support the engine. The subframe is 4 bolts, has 4 braces that will need unbolted towards the back and 4 control arm bolts, 2 each side 1 bolt each, steering rack lines and steering shaft. Bam. pain in the *** without a lift. You will likely have a bent tie rod on the side with a bent control arm. good luck.
