Default Accident pics from "Is my Jeep totaled?"

As you can see in this picture where the reese hitch is attached to the frame it didn't budge, just buckled into the frame.

Same thing on the driver side

You will notice hear the bumper is pushed in, and then the bulge in the quarter panel. I can't tell but it seems like the rear is just flat out off center now.


What do you think?

Here is the before:

If it is indeed totaled I will be buying it back from the insurance company and selling it as a salvaged jeep or part out. What would it be worth?

2001 w 91k 3 inch rough country lift, 31x10.5 Toyo Open Country A/T tires w 75k left and up to date on maintenance minus the accident haha.

i believe the way they are going to total it is if it will cost more to fix. I dont see much damage but then again i am not a insurance adjuster haha

They will total it. That will cost way more to fix then it looks. I would buy it back and make it a wheeler Then get yourself a little gas mizer to jump puddles with from the settlement.

I would buy it back! Take it to a good shop, pay to have the frame pulled, take it and get it re inspected- and drive it. You will make out like a bandit- only thing that will be different is it will have a R-title, and you will have a BUNCH of money left for mods. Wish mine would have been like that!
