That sucks. I was somehow lucky enough to end up with a really clean one out of a 1G DSM. I don't know where the car was from that it came out of but even the alignment adjustment bolts were clean and rust free.

these things are cheap from the factory brand new why not buy one?? with the money and time you spend trying to get that one back to "new like" you coul dhave a new one or two

What kind of dip? Who does something like this?

 

[Flip4G63]

acid dip or something like that. alot of people do it to old cars there restoring to make sure there is nothing eating at it thats hidden..

I dont know the tecnical name for it though.

Got an idea on price?

 

[G]

How much does one cost new? It's called pickling. (acid dipping).

 

[Flip4G63]

i dont remember the price off the top of my head but it was being talked about on this forum a few days ago.. its well under the 200 mark range. for the whole sub frame to include new bushings and all. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

 

[3rdstrikedsm]

Wow are you serious? That is almost hard to believe, I am going to have to look in to it now. Do you have a link by chance?

 

[Flip4G63]

i am really trying to find it.

There where a few guys that posted about it.

I would not know my subframe looks like this after a wipe down such as this.

west texas FTW. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

[Flip4G63]

dang man i cant find that thread at all.

I remember reading it a few times like WTF that cheap but i cant remember what the op was about

 

[dmj]

go to any MITSU dealer should be about 250.00+ tax or call JNZ they will hook you up, cant remember the part # though.it also comes with the bushings so u save even more money.

 

[G]

pART #? I wonder if it's the same part # as the ggsx?

 

[3rdstrikedsm]

We talkin tel subframe's? I would bet gvr4 is diffrent.

 

MB515380

$183 from JNZ

That's Galant VR4 specific.

Surprisingly the DSM crossmember is more, $264. What would the difference be? I'd be tempted to buy a new Galant crossmember for my Talon if it's only $183 and comes with new bushings.

 

[3rdstrikedsm]

I am sure shipping from jnz would be real exp, I will just check my local mitsu stealership.

 

[gtluke]

The galant one has a couple extra brackets welded to it to hold some 4ws crap.
Thats nuts that they are that cheap.

On a side note I saw a new gen Camry on a flatbed coming back from being acid dipped. It seriously dumbfounded me for days that someone would want to do that. I'm still completely confused by it.

what's the # for the ggsx?

 

GGSX is same part number as DSM: MB515381

Also, while this should contain the bushings, the "stopper" between the subframe and car body is apparently not included (MB584140), nor is the bracket between the subframe and nut (MB584645).
