I rolled off of Kodiak rock on Sunday. My first flop with my Jeep. Thanks to everyone that helped. It's generally a good group of people on the trails

Like the license plate!
 
Ben,

Looks like not much damage. Glad you got help getting it back over.
Good meeting you at Arrowhead. Maybe we will get together for a trip this fall/winter..
Take care, Ricky
 
License plate should say UREROLLS now. haha

Good work man, came close to flip time before last (avatar pic).
 
Looks like you got lucky with your windshield!! i know the spot...it was trying to push me right too!!

If you look at this photo, there was a little rock sticking up that caught the roll cage and saved the windshield. It's better to be lucky than good! I apparently kicked out a 18" to 24" diameter rock from the main rock and that's when it rolled. Of course that's the rock that did the little bit of body damage.

mmmkay325- I like your Jeep. Are those poison spider rear fenders? I would love to get a set like those. I need on one the right side now!

RickyR- It was nice meeting you as well. I would love to see your TJ on the trail. The only problem is it makes mine look small and cheap! Email me about the CJ gas tank you have.

Thanks,
Ben
 
Heck you just about need a short wheel based rig like yours to get at kodak now. That big 20k pound boulder in the way sure makes it difficult.

Click to expand...

hey thanks man, i built it over the winter and finally have it where I want it now, so I'm enjoying the heck out of it!! They are actually TREK's corners with regular wheel opening (back when I had stock wheelbase) after I stretched the rear...i just cut my own comp cut into them. So yeah they definately look more poison spiderish now. I think I paid $260 for them and took about a week or 2.
