Hey, Popcan. Thanx for all the help from you guys. Would've never gotten it out without your help. We're a little sore, but ready to go back. That was a big hit. If it wasn't for the Metalworx roll cage being tied into the frame stiffeners & rocker skid, it would've pushed through the floor. And who knows how bad we would be hurt. A year of work fabricating down the drain.. Oh well, back to building or rebuilding. Haven't decided yet. It drives good still and will go any where, but the store..

My goodness, Dave. Our trip to Walker Valley last weekend was pretty quiet when compared to this. we had a couple guys come close to rolling on the Rock Face on Expressway but we watched everybody really close and were quick to get them off the skinny pedal if they started sliding. I think the worst damage we got were some broken taillights and David (TransAm) smacked his hatch pretty good. Alex took some good videos of it but I don't know when or where he will be posting them.

I was the passenger in the first rollover. I just want to give my sincere thanks to everyone that stopped and offered help and support. We felt truly blessed to have had you all there. Thank God my boyfriend does amazing work or we may not be here to tell about the story. A good roll cage is an absolute MUST and I have no doubt of my safety with him.
So nice to see there are such good people out there.....

Glad to hear no people were hurt. Jeeps can be replaced, people cannot be. Glad to see you all were well prepared and worked really good as a team during the rescue/recovery.

I have some repair work first, but that sounds like a good time. Thinking about a Comanche truck for the next project, since it's basically a cherokee. Oh and I have all these new parts, and what can't be taken off, I'll just fab.
