I have no intention of getting rid of my Kiz. I enjoy driving around in a rare car that draws attention and comments. My 2010 is five years old now and most think it is a new model. My worry about parts is a worry of how long the ability to drive this unique vehicle will be.

So Tuesday I hit a square-edged curb so hard it bent the steel wheel like a saw-blade on the Three Stooges.
The next day (and since), after a bit of vigorous shillelaghing with a 5lb hand sledge, I drove over 100MPH.
The front suspension is very sturdy.

From the service manual.
The picture you posted was the tie rod. But more importantly where did you find a service manual?!
