Hey guys, sorry for the delay, Steemit did repair my car, after the second batch of pieces arrived had to get an even 3rd and I discovered another trouble on it which I will fix eventually.
Eitherway, now it's driveable even if it makes a really annoying tc tc tc if I accelerate a bit over a point (My friends started calling it Renault TT).
As I promised, this is the tool that was used to remove the inner tie rod.
Here I took the old arc out hoping can put it in the new strut so I can go with the car to get a new arc but it was a no go:
This was the old arc, it was broken, had atleast 8 cm missing but seems that it was broken from before, dunno how the fuck nothing happen in the meanwhile.
Here I got two new arcs so I change it in both sides but I decided I'll just change the left one for now till I change the second strut also.
I feelt fairly happy to have this back here.
This was WAY harder than I expected to fit in, spent about 10 minutes wondering how da hell I should do it
In a moment of anger I took a small hammer and put it under, it worked so well and I was so surprised about all the wasted energy that I stopped to smoke a cigarette.
And it fit, finally managed to fit it and close it. After I just mounted the wheel and it was like this:
I also fixed this, it was down and even if it wasn't broken it used to make a really annoying sound, I opened its original support and put that "metallical rope?", closed it well and it's holding marvellously.
This is the car of the owner of the place where I fixed mine, he has a while working on it, gathering pieces and making it rule, he has big expectations about it, and I'm trying hard to get him into steemit.
And this is in honor of steemit, for allowing me to keep driving my car.
Thank you everyone for doing this posible.
Here you have the video which will probably explain why we call it Renault TT:

Yep, a shame I wasn't able to make pictures in the most "hot" moments, but I do plan on making a video in the future whenever I'm able to do the TT defect, It's a lot of work on that one.

Car repair is foreign to me! I feel like I would've gone for the hammer first, followed by the vodka, followed by calling you to help me fix it correctly :)
