Finally got my issues fixed , changed to a two speedn400 from rossler . Old 3 speed was not working well shifting 1-2 at the release of the brake . It worked or sometimes spun as the shift took too long and the car couldn’t take all the gear . Any way look on “random mopar pic of the day “ thread page 60 . Big dad put the pic in there .

Saw the pics on facebook yesterday. Sorry to hear it had such a hard landing. Sounds like its all plenty fixable but still. I know you have access to a frame machine so she will all be good. My son fixed similar damage to Jays car when he did the same couple years ago. And added some snout bars to it as well as the sissy sticks:)

Sorry to hear about and see that Tony. I hope you get it fixed soon and get back at it. Get your back or whatever is hurting checked out. A buddy of mine did the same thing and is on his 2nd back surgery because he delayed getting checked out initially. Glad you're okay.

I feel your pain, car came straight up after the 2nd pass on new radials and I instinctively lifted.. Not as high or all 4 off for me but this landing cost over $5K a while back. It squashed the sump, which pushed the windage tray into the crank, which threw metal onto #1 and #2 bores. Also sprung the wings, dented 2 or 3 header tubes and cracked the k member.around the weld on the LCA mount. I also had the wheels checked and replaced the front tyres.

Saw it on FB this weekend...hoped the damage wasn't too bad. Hate to see this Tony! I know you were really getting it dialed in. I've been lucky so far w/ mine...but I'm sure my day is coming when it gets more than the oil pan.

Man that stinks. I know what this is like. Last year I put mine on the bumper and bent the pan and LCA's. My problem was caused by weak shocks up front.
Had them revalved over the winter and barely pulls the fronts now.

I know a few years ago I put my car vertical and it came down real hard..blew both struts, buckled the front motorplate..had to build a new one,, much thicker.. destroyed the oil pan.. built a new one. trashed both bumpers.. got new ones and fixed a section of moly front rail .. the struts cost the most.. forgot to take a pic of it at the time.. my car came loose in the trailer and that cost even more.. but I do all the work myself
