No longer have pics, that was all back in the 1970's. The rig had some cast aluminum spring shackles (that we manufactured for a brief period in the 1970's). We had the spring shackles tested, and the shackles were broken during the impact with a solid rock mountain. Almost all of the damage to the vehicle was undercarriage, so since their engineer didn't see a lot of body damage, he claimed impact was less than 10 mph- - -dude was an idiot, hard to keep from laughing at him during the depositions.
