I said no bump stop... Also notice between the shock and the bump stop the frame has a "tear" in it...

more bent stuff

The shock is pretty much fully crushed

more bent frame and torn hitch bolts

Notice the sway bar is nicely bent and etc...

dent from the bumper going into the side of the truck...

PDRing the whole truck and fixing the rear damage done by the rear bumper getting shoved into the tailgate, and bottom section of the bed...

Dude, that damage makes me wanna cry. Did you get the frame straightened and the hitch replaced? That's a LOT of damage, surprised insurance didn't try and total it...or did they?
Hope it all goes back together good and looks good when done.

How damn fast did you get hit? Glad to see your fixing it tho. Looks good so far.

 

[Faze]

my guess 25mph or 30...

 

[Covah]

What kind of vehicle hit you? I see most cars fold up when rear ending a truck.

 

[iceman7329]

Looks like he got hit by another truck

 

[Denaliano]

Holy shit, Deja Vu!

Same rental and everything :rofl2:

I hope your experence is better than mine Jason!

 

[00Silverado]

Are they replacing the frame from the front spring hanger back? I think that is a common replacement :imo

 

[Faze]

a fucking mazda 3 did all of that... :lol:

The frame guy at the body shop was able to make it perfect but the real task is how its gunna drive... the pinon angle was never a problem maybe a little but my guess its FUCKED now...

The current bill is maybe 3800 range that includes the rental perhaps... :lol:

Went to the doctor gunna be starting PT soon :nono:

There's no damage on that Mazda compared to what happened to you. Maybe the Army should drive those around instead of Hummers, they look pretty tuff from that accident.
Is insurance footing the bill, or is the other person trying to be an Ahole about it?
