My first flop

[79BRUISER]

Pics from yesterday. came loose sometime that day. Flipped it over and checked fluids and she fired up after a zillion pumps on the petal.

Good thing I installed the winch and 4 point belts last week.

Finished up a pretty good day of wheelin.

Just thought I'd share.

I wanted to get a pic like cbbr has with his burb but was leaking gas all over the ground.

Did you at least lube her up while it was easy to get at.

Ah chit. Glad she fired up without to much trouble.

Good thing you had protection for your first time...

We need some pics of the damage.

Not much damage to speak of. Pushed in the rusted out front quarter panel. Pushed in the rear corner by the stock brake light. torqued the rear gate so it won't close without help from a hi-lift lifting up the passenger side.

No broken glass. That surprised me, but it did roll over in the mud.

It even folded in the mirror without damage. That poor mirror has been thru hell, and keeps holding up.

The door damage was from a previous encounter with a tree that kept me from slidin off the side of a hill. Or I would have roll over last year.

After I swamp in the 3/4 ton axles, I'm going to start on the body mods. Starting with a cage. At least a cage around the front seats. I don't use the rear seat anymore. The price of steel has shot thru the roof and I can't afford a full cage right now.


The rear inner fenders and floor are shot, so I'm thinking narrowed rear. Then narrowed front and tube doors.

Anyone need a rear shell thats in good shape let me know. I will be removing mine and not reusing it. Finally.
