I went Bajaing 2 days ago in a new subdivision(their just starting the roads, and my friends family owns the company doing the work), and hit I bump I didn't see and then wham. Then yesterday at lunch I had to slam on my brakes to avoid a dog and the ABS/Brake lights came on, then on my way home I realized my turn signals didn't work. Turned out I somehow blew the ABS/turn signal fuse when I bottomed out... So yea, I won't do that again anytime soon.
Damage Pix:
Gaurd:

Brackets:


IDK what its called, the plastic piece under the rad:

Goes here:

Busted light bar:

And one of my Daylighters got taken out by a rock thrown by a semi:


Now it looks funny:

Also upgraded my amp wiring to 4g and replaced my batt. terminal and fuse:



Then got a GM trouble light:

And a matching spare:

 

damn that sucks... but sh*t happens when you play...

what up with the trouble light? whats it for

 

ballin surprised u didnt break your head when u bottomed out when ever i bottom out in my truck my head hits the roof i have several dents on the top of my cab from my head going into them lol.

 

Our trucks dont have one, and it has 12' of wire.

Not that tall.

 

that front cross member by the lower control arm does not look good get that checked..

 

Its been like that for 2 years.

 

good eye it is definitely bent tho

 

ouch, prbly a good thing you didnt make it to the badlands with luck like that.

 

Yea, tell me about it.

 

I see you upgraded the positive wire on your battery/amp to 4g. Did you upgrade the negative also? You need to do that also to gain as much as possible...just doing the positive is pointless unless you have a negative that's the same or larger.

 

that does suck

 

I wish I could afford to get a nice truck like that and tear it up. My 01 sees some woods-action, and some mud every now and then, but "baja-ing"? --- NEVER. These trucks don't have a stock suspension made for that.

 

That stinks. Gotta hate breaking stuff.

GM trouble light is awesome, I've thought about getting one myself.

 

Everything is 4g, all thats left is a bigger alt, batt., and associated wiring.

I realized that after the fact, I'm just glad it aint worse.

Its very useful, but $90 new, and hard to find used.

 

I avoid flying down rough roads, etc -- ANything that even resembles Baja

 

You're rough on your truck.

 

This is the roughest I've been with it since I bought it. The damage was mainly due to a cheapo brushgaurd, but you get what you pay for... And the plastic piece was ripped off when I was going slower, it got snagged and I didn't realize it, cause I just found it last night.

 

I wouldn't call it a "cheapo" brushguard haha. I had one too and the height clearance on the bottom of the brushguard was so low that I constantly hit it off of the ground off road. I did hit a nice bump once and completely jar it up like you did. I was always taking the brackets off and bending them back to straight haha.

 

that sucks, your lucky you didn't pop the airbags

 

I was only doing 5-10, but oh well, least I learn from my mistakes.

 

Yeah i learned that hitting ant hill that is almost as tall as my truck can get really hairy keeping the truck right side up. So yeah i know how you feel when **** happens. My front pumpkin on my truck still leaks.

 

that sucks man

 

That Sucks man. How's the axle going?

 

I love those GM trouble lights, every truck i have owned, except this one, i put it in
