True, If he can't find a 240in the meantime, just practice without the ABS, rear seats, spare tire, and play. ...j/k.

Gwasabi; If you really tripple checked everything under, you're very lucky nomore other parts are bent. But be prepared for some hammering. Eibach Anti-roll bars are great, has collars for no sliding. I heard Hotchkis Sway bars are updated with anti sliding joints too.

Can; Just need atleast 5mm spacers for the rear and maybe rolled fenders. Learning to preload all the springs "after" picking up 10.5 rims is just not right for a newbie.

when you get everything back, GO TO ISLAND BRAKE & ALIGNMENT. they might tell you your hub/bearing is f.ucked too. that happens 90% of the time in these types of accidents.

lol, i was just about to answer what those bars are! Island Brake is in waimalu next to BestBuy. they've been doing it since before Christ, lol.

if i were you , i'd just get the oem replacements because you don't have a true coilover setup.
