Damn, glad you are alright.

Its hard to tell from the pic, is the cage all tweaked?
 
All I can say is WOW to that series of pictures

yea I'm ok sore and sorry the first ones roll happend so soon

wont know till i chop the windsheild frame off but it looks ok the floor is pushed down about 1/2 in on the drivers side ... JK was goin to tie it to the frame nexted week and make a stinger with fender bars :lol:...I guess I'll tell him not to worry about the fender bars

Windsheilds are overrated...
can you tell any noticable differance with your tires siped?

Glad you are ok hope this may somehow work to your advantage.
 
I sure like that truck. It has been my desktop pic several times. Glad that you are alright.
 
Wow! This picture looks photochopped. It looks unnatural being that far off the dirt. I'm glad you're ok, but I bet your shorts didn't make it out unscathed.:)

Yeah that looks like a serious OH :censor: moment!
 
holy crap. nice series of pics, even if a s***ty circumstance. the rig still looks great though, that's one of my favorites.

Could you tell us what happened when things calm down? what was the original intent there? was there just not enough ground under the truck, and the left front dived leading to the role?
 
i think the intent was drive over the big a$$ rock... I would do it if i could too...
 
i think driving over big a$$ rocks is overrated.

but its pretty cool to watch someone else try it.

nice chassis shot there by the way. very clean.

im sure it will come back better than ever, though the big a$$ rock is gonna claim its $$sssss....


one love

glad to hear your ok

and is that a role of duct tape sitting on the rock where your Cruiser was at ?in the 3rd pic down?
 
Hey you dropped your Pringles
 
Nicely done Brotha...


Wish I could have been there to try the same line after you flopped:bounce:

Would have been fun....Tie that cage into the frame and keep on rollin..



My buddy rolled on the trail a couple weeks ago down a hill, bounce and squashed his roof to the dash. It was a bad roll if he would have had a cage or not( would have been better if he had one) but it was one scary roll. I thought he was seriously hurt.

Think of the positive, at least when ya flopped ya dint keep flopping down a big ass hill. I see if I can dig up a picture of the flop.


We gotta get on trail sometime together...Maybe Round Up if Tellico gets closed down.

the drivers rear WASNT suposed to climb over it ... I thought I was closer to my rocker and It would have stopped the roll ..... the one time I didnt want my tire to climb :lol:

nope its a tree saver we put afound the frame to pull from... took two winches to get it backover

Hey you dropped your Pringles


all my heavey stuff was still in the truck still. all my food was was just in the back seat with my plug kit and rain coat ..... no fuel leaks, shovled up all the oils and glass ,cause I alway carry trash bags all and all it was not bad it was a VERY hard hit cut off some bent stuff and clean off the gear oil from in the dash and wheel the piss out her again



the longs and poly rears held up great too I had it bound up bad quite a few times even in stupid low

Sounds good....

Tellico might be getting shut down so there is a big question mark on GSMTR next year, kinda want to wheel something new anyway. Hopefully Ill have enough cash to make to round up...
 
damn dude... you're hardcore! Oddly enough I talked to LT at the Cruisin the Woods event about a cage over the weekend. I better talk to him again!

Glad you're ok man...
