My friend's KJ was hit last week. It had to be towed due to suspension damage ("broken rod"). I haven't seen it in person.

What do you all think?

It doesn't look that bad from here, but the big question is whether there is underlying "frame" damage. (Quotes because I know this is a unibody vehicle.) Suspension components and body panels can be replaced. The body structure behind the bumper looks ok in the pictures.

Check for shifted ifs cradle. Of suspension parts broke there's a good chance something may have shifted around. I hit a rock and shifted mine a bit.
