so, i foolishly let me roommate borrow my car...during a fairly heavy snow (for the 4x4). he hit a concrete lane divider at pretty slow speed, no apparent damage. but after the incident, the car makes a periodic clunking noise from somewhere underneath the body of the car. any ideas on what got broken?

Chances are he hit the tire. Check to make sure there is no damage to the front steering components and the ball joints.

Let me know what you find.
