So today I was taking the inlaw for a short but quick drive to show off the affects of the supercharger, well he was amazed right up to the time the accelerator pedal stuck to the floor, the car fish tailed about 3 or 4 times before sliding sideways, driverside first into a ditch, the car took the whole ordeal far better than I could have imagined, a couple of scratches but no dents, well after pulling the weeds and what not out of my hair and checking my pants a friendly neighbor stopped by to lend me a hand, well the driverside tire was folded up onder the car a few things broke and bent ,


now the question, I am not looking for a high dallor suspension kit but as fight would have it I was thinking about redoing the front end, can anyone point me the right direction for a Complete kit if there is such a thing

While you are redoing the front end...i will take the paxton off your hands...sounds like the heavy foot got you in trouble

i would first start by taking the front end end apart too see what other damage was done. if the tire folded under there is a good chance that the shock tower is now cracked
