Had an accident and looking for advice on what's broken

[Jasper7821]

Thank You, the fluid is brand new trans fluid that was changed a few weeks before. Here's where I think it leaked out from. Whatever hold this inside the transmission came off/broke. BUT, looking close at the photo it doesn't look wet on the bottom of the hole, so not totally sure.
If finally let me upload a photo

However, I would not consider this decision as a death sentence for the car, as most of the suspension components you damaged are easily available used.

The only concern would be the integrity of the gearbox, you will need to remove the damaged components and determine what parts you will be needing and speaking of the gearbox, you will need to find if the dripping fluid was transmission oil or hydraulic fluid (broken slave hose..?)

Take a breath and evaluate what you need, it may be easier to fix than it seems, I walked a couple of times through LA Dismantlers and saw 'bins of suspension parts' everywhere, don't get discouraged, the car looks beautiful and you may be able to save it!

Good luck!
