I have the B&G coilovers lowered about 2inches from stock, all four corners were even and riding good. The alignment was off but nothing to major as far as pulling to one side. Anyway I was driving at night in a pitch black road and on the last minute I saw what looked like a 5 foot section of road missing only filled with rocks I was doing like 50mph and slowed to about 40 but still hit it really good. Got out checked everything and looked good. Next morning I noticed the FR was sitting lower and stucking in more. Could this be a blown coilover or really bad alignment? I car does pull to the left now and when I try to center the steering wheel it pulls to the left. Thanks for reading and for any help ;-)

 

Could be blown but I think you'd usually see some sort of fluid leaking from somewhere on the unit.

But hitting something that hard you may have damaged any number of other suspension components. You may not even know until you get it into a shop.

 

i would take it in because you could have bent something, totally messed the alginment up
could be a number of possibilities and the only way to know is to have it checked out

 

Alignment should not effect your car height. Take off the wheel and check your front sway bar and end links. I had 2 bent Hotchkis sway bars and now my car is almost 1/2 lower on driver side than pass. side. Make sure coilivers on both sides are even and tight then you can just disconnect one of your endlinks from the coilover body on any side and see if there is any tension on the sway bar. There should't be any tension when you attach endlink to coilover. If you have to pull it up or down to align bolt with the bracket then most likely you have a bent sway bar or endlink. But yeah if its blown shock then you should be able to see some fluid on it.

 

Checked it out today, didnt see any fluid but I did see that collar on the b&g coils that olds the sway was loose. The sway seems to not have any tension since you can move it by turning the collar that holds it. I cant see anything bent or I missing something. The only thing I can think of is turning it up to rise it up and maybe that will fix it but I still cant justify why its lower lol.

 

raise it up a little and see what happens.. do you have camber bolts? and when you hit the dip, did you swerve to the left and brake at the same time leaving your front right to absorb all impact of the ditch?

 

Yeah I braked and swerved to the left at the same time was trying to get to the other lane. No I dont have any camber bolts.
