Bottomed out HARD!
Thursday, March 08, 2007 10:07 AM
Hey guys,

I bottomed out going about 45 mph last night and i hit hard. I hit a damn sink hole in the pavement that was perched right over the top of a huge hill. never saw it comin. I got the car up on a lift and checked the oil pan, exhaust, ect...everything looks fine cosmetically. Is there anything else i should check for?

First time bottoming out at this speed.

if something had gone, you probably would have heard it right away, or the next time you hit a bump. I hit a one like that awhile ago, couldn't see it and wham, there was anasty sound, but everything still semms fine and there are no clunking sounds when i turn or go over speed bumps or anything. you should be ok.
