One sidenote...if you're lowered, be careful. A buddy of mine rolled over a parking block almost exactly like you're describing. His insurance company rejected the claim when they found out his car was lowered. Now, I'm here to tell you he'd have screwed up his car no matter what height he was at, but they attributed the most significant damage to the fact that he'd made an alteration to his car and rejected the claim outright. YMMV.

DagerOne is right, get that bitch back to stock. only takes 45 minutes. then call the ins company.

That's why I said "be careful," and didn't direct him to do anything.

He never actually DID say he was lowered. I just was throwing that out there. In case.

yea, i cracked the housing. the bolts that make it tight wont tighten anymore. i think the transmission is fine though, i think i just screwed the housing. im hoping that i wont have to replace the tranny. i dont know much about transmissions though.
they came and towed it today and are going to look at it monday. the insurance wont do anything for it. blah.
i will let everyone know what they say monday. keep your fingers crossed its not to expensive!! haha

Will keep our fingers crossed for a small repair bill. I did that once but luckily I was driving a Ford Ranger so it never touched anything. I was lucky! Please let us know what they find.
ok, so they looked at it today and they are going to replace the housing(for $1500, is that right?) and then they are going to drive it and see if the transmission is bad. If so, then its another $1900 to put a used one they have in. Im hoping they just have to replace the housing, if so, i get the back back thursday probably.
