[QUOTE="stephenspake, post: 429040, member: 18834"] So my only update so far isn't a great one. We woke up to the sounds of a large tree falling on top of vehicles in our condos parking lot here in ATL. My jeep took the brunt of it. Fortunately I have insurance (if USAA ever responds to my claim), and nobody was hurt. My future brother in law is an engineer and a gear-head, but a Land Rover guy (I don't hold it against him), and once I get a claim finished, hopefully its substantial, so we can put some time into it. The windshield and frame, hood, cowl, drivers fender, quarter panel, and grille are bent to shit. The suspension gemoetry feels off, and it pulls hard to the left now. Brakes or suspension are making a god-awful noise. Didnt want to fiddle with it too much before insurance looks at it. I've never made a claim before, so I'm going to try and get my moneys worth. Plans are to do all the work ourselves and save some money there. Looking to do a 3.5" lift with a progressive coil (likely AEV), replace the hood, windshield and frame, bumpers, tire carrier, quarter panel and fenders (fenders are not a high priority), and move to 35's. Brakes will likely be done as well, just because they've always felt a little soft. And now that I've popped my "ding cherry", I'll play with it a little harder.[ATTACH type="full"]116513[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]116514[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]116515[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]116513[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
