I’m just about fixed up after my last roll. Fixed the cracked welds, put a new A brace in (some how it hit a tree), added a few windshield gussets, and finally put an X brace in. All I have left to do is a front spindle and beam and need to get a new light. The light also hit a tree in my roll, glad I tried to hide them under the shock towers.

I added some weather stripping on the roof to help soften the hits when I roll. :roll:

I got the front end apart and it doesn’t look good. Afterburnt is going to help fix the spindle and if he can the beam and arm, if not I’ll just run it until I get the money for a new beam and arm.

I rode it for 3+ hrs with bad bearings. There isn't very much of the bearing races left. I post some pictures when I get them out.
