Bent rear toe (track) control arm
Good day gents,, has any seen or experienced a bent rear toe (track) control arm , see attached photos.My Boxster has a rear left bent control arm. But my shop cant seem to get the right rear toe within spec for an alignment, I was looking for replacement ones but was only able to find Porsche and Meylle was not able to find TRW toe control arms.Thanks guys......

IMHO, Meyle is a good option

Thanks for your response. I found some Porsche toe control arms from Stoddard at a real good price. I'm hoping they are Porsche and not another aftermarket brand when they get delivered.
I was more surprised how much my left side tow control arm was bent but after casually speaking with Ramon at Carl's Place he said it doesn't take much to bend these from either speed bumps, potholes and even inexperienced tow truck drivers. |

I wonder if you can heat it up some and straighten it

You will change the temper and other strength qualities of the part. That could cause an unsafe condition such as snapping in two while driving. |
Well Stoddard disappointed me, I call them before I placed my order online to ensure my parts would be Genuine Porsche and when they were delivered I got Meyle parts. I even called them after the parts were delivered and Devon (sales guy) stated he goes by the information in the computer., smh.
