The worst luck ever.

Danni has it.... (cross posted from terrainstompers.)


She works for camel cigarettes doing the bar to bar surveys and giving away free cigs.

Last night at around 1:30, she got ran off the road into a retaining wall by someone crossing over lanes on a one way. He took off Evil or Very Mad


The jeep looks pretty bad, as of last night I could see these parts to be replaced.

-drag link bent
-shock was sheared(drivers side)
- all control arms were bent, and some brackets ripped off axle side
-trashed sway bar disconnect
-demolished Piaa light
-end of jeeperman bumper was crunched
-fender destroyed

and the kicker, the driveshaft was pushed into the xfer case and exploded into several pieces.


And today after work I go out to make a list an get a better look at it, and the hood is offset.
After further inspection, the frame is bent (dunno exactly where) about a half inch to the passenger side.

Body mounts are still correct and the body is straight, but the front end of the frame got a good punch to the left, leaving the grille offset of the hood.





So I have already started to get on the ball with parts, If anyone has stock suspension parts they are trying to get rid of contact me cause ill buy em, same with a decent xfer case.

And I know a local wheeler has a frame puller, but I cannot remember who, and how much it would cost to pull the front end back into spec?




Thanks,
Justin and Danni


Ps, Will get pics when its not raining, cause I know thats what you wanna see Laughing

Take a good look at the front axle, they are notorious for bending in that situation. I think fabricator has a frame rack.
