Tip & How-To about Chevrolet Cavalier

Caviler wheels

The rims on the 93 Caviler have a tendency to bend because they are very difficult to get off if they have been on the vehicle for awhile. It is a good idea to remove the wheel and take steel wool or emery cloth to remove the excess rust as it will collect and then the wheel will have to be beaten off which usually bends a rim.

I have a 93 240 sedan. Kept blowing the fuel pump fuse.

I would look for the damaged insulation in the wiring to it.

93 caviler rs...I need to put passenger window back on the track its completely off

you will have to remove the door panels and remove the motor assembly. likely a piece has fallen off or deteriorated causing the track to stick and thus the problem. if any parts are bent and you can bend them back this will fix it too. but remove the window completely to do this procedure. if the window is a manual window, then same deal. remove the window and all the parts and re-assemble if you can or buy the broken pieces from a junkyard first then from the store if you canot find them in a junkyard.

lower part of wheel is bending under car

The sway bar gives from side to side so I doubt your problem is in that. Of course it is really hard for me to pinpoint your problem without inspecting the vehicle, how hard did the vehicle hit the curb? If it hit it pretty hard and severely bent the lower control arm, I would suspect that you have some frame damage.

You need to really inspect the frame where the lower control arm mounts, it may help to look at the other side and compare it to the damaged side. You'll be looking for slight wrinkles or bends in places near where the control arm mounts or follow back and keep looking for any signs of slight signs of damage.

And, are we talking about the front, rear or both on the vehicle?
If it's the rear, the rear is weaker than the front. Follow the frame rail all the way towards the middle and look for signs of damage.

If you look closely, you should be able to find the damaged area.
It being a '94 it doesn't take much damage for your insurance to total the vehicle out, (if you happen to have full coverage insurance and file it.)
I hope this may help.
