Friday, I was driving home, left work early. I come to the stop sight, stop and look both ways. I then make a right and stop to let cars go by (Im making a left. Its a offset road I was on). 2 cars by, about 15 seconds. And then Wham. A 80's Lincoln Towncar rearends me on my passengers side rear corner. I was pissed. I Backed up off of the road. The Lincoln was messed up, all the plastic pieces were gone.

I get out of my truck and go to look at the back pasengers side corner. Luckly there where only scratches on the bumper, and the plastic piece had deep scratches. Thank god for the trailor Hitch.(i think it helped) The other driver stopped at the stop sign, and looked left, and then accelerated into my truck (so she says). My Question is:

1. Is there something I should particularly look for in undernieth damages?

2. I may have never realized this before, but I notice now that when I back up and turnning, I feel like "binding" or like running over bumpy road, hessitation feeling????. Nothing Bad at all, but I feel it. Is that the limited slip, or is something out of alighnment?

Thanx

Drew

Take it to a shop that can check the frame carefully for square. I've seen trucks that were hit off center and looked slightly damaged, but were 'totalled' because the frame was 'wracked'. Your right frame rail may have been driven foreward causing misalignment of everything attached to it.

 

Good advice from DHFerguson.

Sorry this happened to you. What a way to end the week.
