Hello,
Well, after a little trip through venezuela, brazil, and guiana I had a little incident regarding my upper coil mount. I came down a little hard with the XJ on the right wheel and the axle side bump stop crushed the upper coil mount into the car. Luckily the coil didnt fall off, though it looked like a half-circle. With a little help of the winch we straightened it out but now im concerned about the structural integrity of the mount. What comments or advice can you give me regarding the above? Is this a terrible incident, enough to consider selling the vehicle? Can I reinforce the mount with a support that bolts on to the unibody and goes to the coil mount?
ANY HELP is welcome!
thanks!
Luis.
