Default suspension question

Hey everybody. Well Don't want to sound like a nut or an obessive. I just love my Mustang. Today I was driving and headed for the gas station.I accidently went on the side walk and not where the side dips down so the car can enter thegas station. I hit the curb the carit hard as like you would when you would run over a pot hole but harder. I have no damage on the car could did this event hurt my suspension inany way. How tough is our 07 v6 pony edition suspensions.

If you didn't "snag" your tire and you don't feel any difference in the car, you are probably ok. But you can only know unless you get it checked out.

More than likely you just bottomed the car out on the frame.

I have read this post again and again, but im still unsure about what actually happened? lol
To the Original poster, you might want to proof read your post before you submit it. I cant make any sense of it other than you hit a curb somehow, maybe ran over it? If it drives alright you are probably fine. If there is a difference than there was before the accident, or you are really concerned about it, you should take it in for a evaluation.

The lower reverse L control arms in the front are the weak link
in the crumple zone approach Ford designs into these cars.
