So I knew that my rear shocks were bad. They were leaky and basically stiff as board but tonight a lady who couldn't wait to eat a Whataburger hamburger cut across 3 lanes of traffic to make an emergency fatty maneuver and cut me off. I had to cut the wheel and put the car sideways. I heard a loud pop just before the two cars behind me collided but narrowly missed me.

The fatty with the burger fixation realized what carnage she'd cause and I saw her high-tail it out of Dodge. Thinking everything may be ok I proceeded to the daycare to pick up my daughters. the car was making an awful sound so I pulled over.
This is what I found:

S4IT!!! :banghead:

I'm not sure I even know what I'm looking at.

Is that the left rear? Did your shock explode?

 

[iaregenius]

Yeah, that's the rear drivers shock. It completely exploded. :censor:

Oh Snap! Literally snap.

Wow! Carnage. Glad your alright.

Hopefully fatass suffered a heart attack from the excitement it caused. Glad to see your alright and that you didn't get hit!

Thanks guys! I have some Bilstein's in the mail, should be here by Tuesday. I'm putting them in with a buddy (he works for beer and dinner). I also have some fresh springs to throw in while we're at it. :clap:

New rear shocks in place. This car feels so much better, I can't wait to get the fronts done! The rear interior dismantle was such a b1tch!!!
