update:
body shop estimate is closer to 14K. i noticed this last week that im getting some premature wear on my passenger side tires so probably frame damage. car goes in june 8th to start repairs. will update once i have more.
really hoping the angle and speed I bounced off it’ll be okay. Really hoping to save this thing. But I also don’t want to keep it if it’s compromised
I drive this thing daily in all weather. it was really cold and just hit a sheet of ice as I was going along the freeway. Have never had an issue like this. I was a steady speed no speed or direction changes. Far from my first drive in similar conditions.
Finally became a statistic. Luckily single car accident and I’m fine. Spun out and hit guard rail. Speed was approx 30-35. Car started and drove home. What do y’all think about this?
no leaks. Wheels don’t seem like they got touched or tweaked at all. Car didn’t overheat in the short drive home.
for what its worth you dont have to run 1 inch spacers to run the rear pp1 wheels up front on stock studs. you can use a 5mm spacer and it will clear the strut tower. can still use stock studs and lugs.
i run rear pp1 wheels squared all around just uses a 5mm spacer up front. have had up to...

if you coat it and wash it well enough you could prob get away with one of these and just wipe off the dust daily and would prob keep you a lot cleaner.
do you notice that it happens at a specific rpm range? sounds almost like bbq tick but i only hear one tick usually its more. mine 17 had it early on and usually can be reproduced in the 17-1800 rpm range.

super interesting imo. i know ford patented something similar so curious if we will ever see it from the ford side.
had good results going from lth xpipe and roush abs to lth magnaflow tru x midpipe and roush abs. still loud when on it but not so loud when cruising or idle.
