Sorry to hear about this Kevin!

Let me know if there is anything I can do - Like I've said before, the bender IS portable. I do have a week of free time between Christmas and New Years.

 

[Charlie's_93EB]

holy crap batman, i am glad to hear you are ok.

how far did you drive it home?

 

[MyExpWork]

Glad ur okay.

And...Ummm....your gonna need a new driver's side mirror.

You could start a new club. Dif whack Daddy and the rollover twice posse.

I trailered it home. That thing is strictly a trailer queen since I got the F-350.

Good news, just found a black 91 4dr with a siezed motor. $500. It looks like it has a new water pump and an aluminum core radiator. Only problem is it's missing the left (drivers side) front fender, headlight, and turn signal. Anybody have these laying arround?

Ouch!!!!!! When did you do this? I was just up in the Tinkham area Saturday. Hiked to Mason Lake and drove around a bit. Wish I would've been around a little closer to offer a hand. Scarryyyy stuff. Glad you and yours are all right!!

 

[Rick]

That's great news Kevin

All the salvageable stuff is underneath. Thats the important part. The top is just cosmetic and conveniant.

List of damage
-Bent frame, gas tank pushing into the rear drive shaft
-Bent wristed radius arm

All the salvageable stuff is underneath. Thats the important part. The top is just cosmetic and conveniant.

Is the frame fixable or are you going to have to swap frames and redo the SAS mounts?

 

[tdavis]

Hey, you've got time to get it swapped over by thanksgivings!

Come on Kevin, get to work!

 

[Crankcase]

EEEK! I'm glad you came out of that unscathed.....


I think you are definitley the rollover KING!

 

[arsoul]

I still cant believe no one was hurt. When I first looked down that mountain at the rig, I thought "no way in hell am i following him down there", then i realized the third brake light was on the bottom....but hey, there is some good news from that weekend.....I didnt break anything for a change!

Kevin, we only got about 20 seconds of video, Jenna stopped taping because of the hail and snow. You can just make out your truck being flipped back onto the tires, and thats it.

 

[Diff Whack Daddy]

How about still pictures?

 

[Trckmagik]

I have a drivers side fender if you need it. Due to your situation its yours for 10.00 plus the shipping. Let me know

Hey Trckmagik, thanks. I PM'ed you with shipping info. Get me a quote and I'll get the money to you.

 

[Diff Whack Daddy]

More good news. I took my wristed radius arm which bent in the roll down to the guy that made it and he fixed it. A little heat and a 20,000 lb press at work and it was good as new. "FREEBIE" . That saves $300 on the repair cost. So far I have spent $500 for the donor body and frame and the only other parts I need is a new trackbar at $110 from Jeffs Bronco Graveyard and the $10 plus shipping fender from Trckmagik. That's a total of $620 to get my truck back to where it was. Not bad Now all I need is a fleet of mechanics to help swap it all over.

Glad to hear everyone was ok, now you'll have to add another rolled Ex smilie to your signature.
