UNDERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
OVERSTEER is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
HORSEPOWER is how fast you hit the wall.
TORQUE is how far you take the wall with you.

and 25 x 2.5 cds for the wishbones

I'd go with 25x2mm-1"x14gauge minimum for the lower arm/wishbone and 19x2mm-3/4x14gauge for the toparm/wishbone. CDS cold drawn seamless is best but ERW is cheaper.

With the kind of questions your asking I wonder if you are better buy some thing off the shelf.
And if you need a spare you can replace it easy.

Bones get bent ......with the state of the potholes it aint getting any better....You only have to be unlucky once. Or in a good buddys case 3 times
