Right been along time since I have posted. So last week heading home had green light then a wee Mercedes tried to turn left on me. I ran over his left front and launched me near vertical then slammed down. No air bag but was shaken pretty good. Broke left front a arm and truck hauled away. Anyone think this is a remove replace scenario or will they write it off.

Looks like the coilover is bent, and you yanked the ball joint out of the spindle. Maybe a few parts and you will be back in action. Check the welds on the lower arm pivots and look for paint cracked on everything so you know its just a lower and coilover you need.

Ahh thank you great points to look for. Appreciate the input.

Aww man sorry for you! Hope you can fix everything if not maybe a new Raptor R ?
Good luck let us know how you make out.

You'll definitely want to get the frame inspected as well, could be bent with a hit like that. Get all the mounting pieces for the suspension inspected incase there are any cracks in welds or bent brackets that will cause looseness in your suspension system.

Right well that took forever. Gen 1 totalled. So found a clean 17 gen 2. I was one of those I need a V8 guys. This wee engine sure does move with a goose tune. Wow I'm blown away.

Sorry about the Gen 1, but looks like you came out OK. Haha, wee engine it is. In about 15 years or so we will be saying it has to be gas or diesel and not electric/battery. How the times are changing.....

Well yes, newer technology usualy give rise to better performace, but at the sacrifice of sounding like my neighbors "rice wagon".

Nothing better sounding than a V8, regardless of performance.
