I went up to the tow facilty on Sunday to get some personal items out
of the vehicle, took some photos, and put them on a page that I had
started for the WJ, but never got around to finishing...

Yep, it's toast. With the unibody frame the WJ uses it can't be fixed
after that type of damage. And with the hits it took I would not feel
comfortable using drive train parts without rebuilding them first.
You can write off the axles with that type of damage.

The drag link is probably bent and that's why the wheel is out of alignment.

Glad everyone is ok, that' the important thing.

They'll total it, you may have to use an attorney to get a fair
price, though.
Thanks for posting it, as I was interested in how well the top
held, and it did.
I don't see air bags, is this it second accident and as so often
the bags weren't replaced?
Pretty wife, too bad this was not a day when she could have smiled.
