The video shows the crash break of the suspension wishbone caused by the collision of the front wheel which also damaged the rim, the steering box tie rod and caused the drive shaft to come out; disassembling the swinging arm requires first the removal of the ball head from the hub support and then moving on to the other two ends of the arm respectively fixed to the engine cradle and to the car chassis through a bush inside which a silent blok rubber is integrated; once all the pins have been removed, the arm can be removed from its seat.
