Well today was great. First rock race, did awful. haha, came in like 3rd from last, It was great experience, I need to get better shocks and make my turning radius 10x better.
Let's go through the carnage first.
tie rod bent out, had to turn the tierod so the bend was down. Continued to wheel throughout the day.
Power steering hose busted, fixed it, continued wheeling.
fish1200 got some nice new roof dents.
he also bent his steering
Crushed in my B pillar
Spring came out
reseating spring
Pulling B pillar straight, Still havent checked to see if doors will work. gunna strengthen the shit out of it.
Completely busted my steering. hydro line broke off, and possibly damaged my ram.
Wheeled it a bunch, almost flopped it a few times, good times good times.

Holy shit!at the flop. Any after pics?
Damn maxx, I didn't think you'd ever damage it, but you did. That silly stock B pillar, its gonna be pointless when you buggy it lol.
Props to wheeling it hard dude, showed all them haters up huh!

very nice, well except for the dmage. My front spring on the pass side did the same damn thing which wiped out my hydro. steering.
06-28-2009, 10:58 AM
still drove it home
thanks to the guy that let me borrow his spare short shaft.
i need videos and pics from another angle...if u got them, post them. i wanna see where the steering bent. if it was already bent while it was rolling or if it bent when i tried to turn into it.
some pics of the damage

how bout that truss
06-28-2009, 12:57 PM
Thats why your shit didnt snap in half!
06-28-2009, 01:46 PM
Your shit is noisy maxx lol. Clankin and clunkin everywhere hahaha.
Were you goin lock to lock on your steering when you 3 pointed those turns? You REALLY need to work on that turning radius if you were...
06-28-2009, 02:40 PM
fish1200, your jeep really made out well for how hard you flopped it
06-28-2009, 03:44 PM
yea, it hit the slider and pivoted on it so the landing was smooth
06-28-2009, 04:41 PM
Good times yesterday guys. Glad to see you again Fish1200 (Matt) and Maxx.
Sucked that you rolled it yesterday Fish...although it was fun to watch. You had a great attitude about it and it didn't really do a ton of damage so you don't have to cut it all up if you choose not to.
Maxx...you did good yesterday. With some limit straps...new shocks (to control the rear bounce), and a geared case...you'd be hard to beat. Keep it up

you call 3:00 and 2:14 good???? lol
ill get the vids i got up sometime soon.
and that little 4 sec vid you left on my camera was fucked up
good trip and i hope that light you won is keeping the back of you neck warm

Very nice!
So why did you back up in the last video? It's just glass and sheetmetal

Yeah, you were just getting lined up! And some still say the "back hack" (d pillar and rear window chop) is pointless.Very nice!
