Plumberbill sent me this today. He’s fine and the buggy has minor damage on the roof after landing on Odyknuck’s shock tower.

Bill maybe we need to add 1/2" plate to your entire floorpan to give you a lower center of gravity. Hows Ody's shock tower? :cry:

I was there to see the end of that situation, although i didnt see bill on his roof, He said they were there for quite awhile and I believe it was a blown brake rotor that started it

it all started when odyknuck broke a stub axel climbing a hill. he rolled back and got wedged against a tree. his winch couldn't quit pull him off the tree so i rolled down from above, tied off the rear of my buggy to a tree and used my winch and his winch to pull him off the tree. at the time we thought it was a broken cv but when we winched him up hill, his tire pretty much fell off. so there i am half way down the hill, cant get around steve and i cant go up hill in reverse so i tried to turn around. as you can see i didnt quite make it. fortunately it was a slow roll nothing like my hillsville roll. thanks to the couple of buggys that we flagged down, they helped us flip it back over, didnt get any names but thanks.

Shock towers fine he missed it. For the record he landed on my Bumper and put a small dent in it. Along with the Stub axel when the tire peeled of it took out the caliper too! The pictures do this situation no justice. The hill we are on is really steap as in about 30 degrees. The winch cable and a strap to a tree was the only thing keeping my Buggy on the hill for the repair. Jacking the Buggy up was quite a treat! :roll: Oh! BTW the little dent in the Bumper is a mute Issue now. Riding around the rest of the weekend in wet terrain with only three brakes is not a good thing. A down hill slide into a tree crushed the the little dent to a flat dent and a wasted Bumper. Hey it saved the shock tower and beam. :lol: :mrgreen: Its allways an adventure when Bill and I set out on the trail. :wink: Untill next time! :shock:
