bottoming out

[nobrainer]

If I bottom out my camry.. what are some things i should check just to be safe.. and to clarify bottoming out... hitting the ground hard with the car

The reason i ask is because today i was driving down this road where my friend lives.. and im happy because it is a fun road just like the other way to his house.. and all the sudden in front of me is this drop off.. and im pretty sure my camry got a little air time... but it hit hard... and then right around a turn there was another one and I could feel the back end beginning to come out... but it wasn't as bad...and it actually felt really cool... anyway...it was my first time taking the road so ill know what to look out for next time..

the exaust pipeing, and then the inside fuel lines that run from the tank to the driver side underbody...and then up near the firewall...etc etc...

Not to mention your axles. They are clearly not broken if you are still driving, but be careful getting "air time" because I have seen many a broken axle after some hard punishment like that!

I got air in my gen 3 a couple times....nothing happened....I don't mean to but i have the music cranked and i m not really paying attention to my speed...and then ill go over a hill, well u get the idea....I know it is not good for it especially when i feel the suspension full extend then slam back down....it hurts me inside thinkin what my car is going thru...I actually did some damage...I cracked the front fender....there is a fine crack that starts at the top of the wheel well and goes half way to the hood...but i don't think that is from gettin air cause i don't think the wheel would hit the outer part of the wheel well...I have always wondered what cause that though...If i had to take a guess I would say that it looks like a stress fracture of some kind. I don't think the fender itself is actually cracked just the paint or something....It werid none the less.

That's why I never drive over 20 MPH in the city or roads...on the highway it's a whole other story......

look at your exaust pipe brakets i did that once and hit the pipe but only damage with the braket was bent and the pipe was on the frame and made the exaust sound real load
