[QUOTE="Becker69 CO, post: 732939, member: 53963"] I'd figure you bent a tie rod or both in addition to one or both your shocks. I would be kind of surprised if you bent a control arm depending on how much air you got. If you think you got more than 8 - 10 inches of air (and depending on your [b]speed[/b] @ the time of impact) you may be looking at control arms and ball joints. Depending on how deep of mud you got into, you might be looking at getting the front diff serviced although it doesn't sound like you hit that deep a pit. Actually, the fact that you hit the breaks hard may have damaged more than if you hadn't... depending on the angle you were turning the wheel if any. Dude a cell phone and/or cb and $40 worth of tow strap and D ring will save you almost any time you need to throttle it to clear a short bog. Chad... FOX coilovers??!! Man you don't mess around. Why not just SAS for the cost?!! [/QUOTE]
