we tried rolling it the other way, there was a 50ft cliff about 20 ft from where she was and no good way to get a truck in where it needed to be.

It's one of those things where it doesn't look that bad until you look more closely. Then you'd see the crinkled driverside A-pillar, roof, door and quarter panel. I can't replace the windshield or quarter glass until the crushed metal around each are popped out, and the roll destroyed the window channel on the door. Thankfully I had just bought two perfect doors off an identical sport in the junkyard (to make half doors for the summer), so at least I can fix the door for now. I'm going back to the junkyard this weekend to (hopefully) get replacement parts out of the aforementioned sport. We had to pull the plugs and crank the oil out of the cylinders but Morgan fired right up and drove home just fine, albeit with a new wobble in the front end. Thanks to Rookie, Micah, Jay, Chris & Marcy for getting my truck out of there

So...... do I qualify for Rollover Posse membership now?????? :roll:

 

[sn0border88]

(Oh and IZ, it really isnt that bad.)

It is too, genius. Splintered down both sides, halfway across my driving line of vision. Oh hell, gimmie a few minutes and I'll take a trip to the parking lot for some pictures :

 

[sn0border88]

Where are the rest of your pics? Rookie still hasnt posted any up

 

[Spas]

Nyah.

Passenger side's not too bad, just a dent behind the door and a crinkly front fender:

But this is gonna need fixing, it's leaning in too far. I don't mind wind noise, but I REALLY mind soaking wet seats and carpet :fire:

Micah, I put a few pics up in my gallery. Most of the shots I got were repeats... what ones did you want me to put up?

 

[John_Rock]

Holy moly Lindsay!

What's the details on how it happened?

 

[Blee1099]

Wow.. you sure made us proud

 

[JoshC]

So...... do I qualify for Rollover Posse membership now?????? :roll:

Well i believe that inorder to qualify it has to roll under it's own momentem, not that of about a half dozen guys

 

[explornj]

not enough damage you have too many windows intact and you could drive it home

 

[JDraper]

Oh Lindsy, Lindsy, Lindsy....didn't anyone ever tell ya KEEP THE RUBBER SIDE DOWN!!!!! Or was the blind cardiac patient guiding again....:scratch:

 

[briwayjones]

Sheesh, what are ya doing that to a perfectly good Explorer for. You barely have it finished. :

 

[sn0border88]

Oh Lindsy, Lindsy, Lindsy....didn't anyone ever tell ya KEEP THE RUBBER SIDE DOWN!!!!! Or was the blind cardiac patient guiding again....:scratch:

It was acually her not listening to the blind cardiac patient. The blind cardiac patient was right. :

 

[JDraper]

It was acually her not listening to the blind cardiac patient. The blind cardiac patient was right. :

I can believe that!! I've guided her before...........

 

[Spas]

Holy moly Lindsay!

What's the details on how it happened?

Uhm.... I suck at driving manual? Lol. Chris (Skunk) was spotting me up the final off-camber section of 'The Ledge' and since Morgan still crawls too fast in 4Low I was only letting the clutch out halfway. Well, keep running into rocks headfirst and the impact is gonna move your foot off the pedal That, and the new higher ride height and body roll from putting in 2" blocks was throwing me off a little bit. If I'd let the clutch in when I started to lean I would have rolled back instead of over, but I didn't know that at the time. My theory was "Turn into it and keep the clutch out, maybe you'll crawl up and stop leaning over". Obviously I was wrong. Whatever excuse I use, it all boils down to plain ol' bad driving I need more practice. A LOT more practice!

Here, you can see how I keep accidentally rocking the truck back and forth when I'm trying to climb steep obstacles:

Josh, can I be in the flopover posse at least?? :

I can believe that!! I've guided her before...........

I listen but it takes too much time for my brain to translate the proper action to my body. So shoot me :

Just washed Morgan.. twice.. the only window that doesn't leak is the rear pass side quarter Oy vey.

hope you dont mind a few more incriminating pics.
