ever bottom out the TL where the shocks compress to maximum if you go into a bump ?

I had to go offroad today due to closure of a bridge and as I got off the road onto a 'muddy' trail... i heard a SUPER ASS LOUD bang on the front end and then the rear when the car left the road.. i dont think it hit anything.. just the shocks bottoming out?

any damage possible or anything i gotta look out for.. drove it for a good 1.5hrs after that and dont really feell anything different.

 

You probably heard the sound of your j-pipe and 3rd cat scraping.

 

did that before take a look under your car now. lol

 

Bottomed out a lot after my Tein install. Oh well... as long as nothing is leaking, its all good.

 

i've bottomed out a few times. you'll be fine as long as anything isn't leaking (oil pan is right at the bottom). you probably just hit the supports on either sides. man, i used to SWEAT bottoming out - it isn't so bad any more. car isn't "meant" for it, but it knows how to deal with it.
