wowza, good luck with the rebuild...thank goodness you didn't get out into oncoming too much, you would be somewhere else right now...whew!
 
Dam good to hear you and the flea-bag are ok, definetly hit the Dr. and get checked out. I left you a voicemail.

It doesn't look too bad, replace the windshield, fix the xfer linkage and drive it. It could certainly have been worse. After this incident do you have plans to install padding in the back for your four legged friend?
 
Glad you walked away man.. The only thing that matters....

:cheers:

Amazing that the truck survived that well..
 
beno,

As many others have stated---ITS GOOD TO BE ALIVE:) Sorry about your Cruiser--maybe you can do something like the 1st gen 4Runner? I take it you have another ride? On the high side cruisers appear to be a good buy right now...... A couple guys here on mud have swapped bodies....lowertide comes to mind and somebody made a FZJ45. If you need to relax and head to Mexico I can help.;)
 
That first pic had me thinking your frame was severly tweaked. Glad to see you were just making use of your hi-lift.

If your lucky Insurance will total it and you can buy it back with some cash left over to reinvest into upgrades. The body doesn't look too bad. Heating the buckled areas of the roof before you push it out may get it close to where it was. Doesn't have to be exact. Its the roof and nobody really sees it. Besides, you'll line-x it.
 
Onur, if it's gonna sit till the thaw..set a date for a weekend wrench session and the Cbus crowd will be up to help.

Seriously..it will give you some time to sort things out and something to look forward to also.
 
I can smell them from here....dont give it up though.

Glad to see you made it out with your pup! Those roll overs are scary! i had an old 91 Trooper driving 60 on a highway when the front passenger tire blew and i headed for a bank! rolled it once and it landed back on its wheels! I wasn't wearing a seatbelt (stupid, trust me i never leave the driveway with out it now!) i was all screwed up and with an altered mental status drove it home (over a mile) with no hydro brakes(could still stop but not too quick) or windshield and on the flat! i felt pretty embarrassed about the whole situation and by all means don't brag about it! i'm really glad you and the dog were ok.

fellow cruiser!

I bet Doc is itching for some parts...that snake in the grass :flipoff2:

I'm slightly offeneded by that! :flipoff2:

Onur- if you need anything that I can get for you, just say the word. It's not that far!

Oh, and OUCH- man you have some bad cruiser luck!
 
Holy shiznit! :eek:


Glad you are OK and in pretty good spirits, considering...

You are a trooper for sure.......


:cheers:
 
Glad to hear you and the pup are OK!

Considering what it went over (concrete divider), I think it came out pretty darn well. I see you're lined on the sides, so this is a trail rig. Depending on how you feel about leftover battle dents, this might not be all that expensive to "repair". Ths big one is truing up the windshield mount and putting one in. Use a -LOT- of goop on it. The rest are aesthetics from what I can tell in the pics.

A bottle jack and 2x4 might be able to pop your roof back up. Best to do this before the metal gets too much of a memory of being dented. For a rollover though, especially going over a barrier, your truck looks pretty good.
 
happy you're OK...

waddya mean, a wall in the left lane...? whose wall was that...:D ? good you're not one of them lawsuit happy types...! :D
 
Keep up the good spirits Beno!

So glad to hear you and the pup are OK.
