So i just went to go get lunch in my car and when i was going around a long right turn, i hit a sewer cap...not even 2 inches indented into the ground...so it wasnt even hardly a hole...when i hit it, it made a unusually loud noise from the front of my car. so i thought maybe it was bigger than i had thought, but its not cause i checked it on the way back...but when i got to my lunch spot, i looked at everything and it seemed to check out...my spring seemed like it was compressed a little more than usual but nothing crazy. I looked at the clearance on my driver side tire to the wheel well, and its tucking tire pretty good. I looked on my passenger side, and its not tucking tire like the other side...

now its not drastic like holy ****, its lower on the left for sure.... you can only tell by checking wheel gap. I figured if my spring collapsed, it would be MUCH worse than it is.

if anyone has any input, please do share....thanks

are you sure it wasn't like that before most hondas lean to the left because that side is heavier and the springs are identical left to right. and i doubt hitting a small one like that could damage anything. what do you have for suspension?

it made a pretty decent noise though...i wouldnt have gotten out and checked it if i didnt think it was anything....i mean MAYBE it could have been like that....now that i think of it, the collar may have gotten loose and wound down a couple of threads when i was beating the **** out of my lower ball joint on the driver side when i was swapping motors...

but that still doesnt explain the loud noise it made....

only way to tell is to pull the wheel off, check the lca, and where the shock is sitting in the perch, maby it fell off or slid...

if either the coil or the strut were blown, i would be on the ground....and im not, so i dont think they are blown...

the struts could be blown and you would sit the same it would just be bouncy, the coils could be damaged but not broken, you cannot narrow anything out at this point, pull of the wheel and take a peek.

yea just take time and have a look down in there. Hopefully it isnt bad like frame damage, cause that happened to me. That i remember annoyed the hell out of me. I ended up selling the car. Good luck.

Quick question what type of coils do you have? Hows the ride with stock struts?
