I Hate Curbs!

transverse member.....but i couldn't find a part number.....and it's pretty much the whole subframe
 
thanks so much man! hahaha i dont have the manual, when i bought it used from the dealership they probably ebayed it to pocket 20 bucks for themselves
 
The P/N on that bracket is B25D-34-4A0. I don't think the OP is talking about that entire transverse member, because that's like $700.
 
Ya thanks for the help you guys. I have 20% off from the mazda dealership down the street so ill see how much i can get that bracket is.
 
Today i had a 2 hour Auto period at school. I spent the whole time tooling on the car now that i got the very last part. 10 minutes left, i put on the new rotor, get out the spare tire, and go to pop in the new brake pads when.... THEIR THE WRONG ONES! UUUUGH! this happened to me twice. PepBoys worker didnt see the little message on the screen that said ( item is exempt to protege5) I ASKED FOR PROTEGE5! My teacher is letting me come in and put them on tomorrow so i can drive the car home. Yay me =]

uugghh.....i hate that s***.....i always sit over the shoulders of those guys when ever they look up parts for me



edit: i've been there so much i know their own system better than some.....and i think i'm quicker
 
ha ya im careful now. the guy at the dealer ordered me a protege bracket. i made him charge the $12 back to the credit card =]
 
Drove the car home with the spare!! besides the hard right pull, everything was fine. Then when i was washing my car i noticed my rear wheel was tucked under at a pretty harsh angle. My dad and i brought out the Jack and stands and went to work. here is what we found.

The good side.

I had no idea the rear end whipped into the curb that hard to do this. Im completely amazed now. Are these the sway bars? how much money do you think this damage is gonna cost me?
