    what, no pics of the scene or the crumple zone....

    be sure to have them check out your rear axle locating arms and joints, rear prop shaft, park brake, rear output from the tcase and the tcase mountings.

    I know of someone who copped a good one in a toymota, in the same area but on the right hand side of the vehicle, insurance paid for the inital repair and once it was done the tcase spraged cause the propshaft was siezed in the slip join and it cracked the tcase around the output seal. They then refused to come to the party for the tcase, arms and propshaft claiming it had occoured after the repairs had been done.

    also check the exhaust system, Ive had a series rear ended and the exhaust system pushed forwards and cracked the manifolds where they bolt onto the block...

    Hope you get lucky with this.
