wroose's Blog - I survived the Rubicon but not Johnson Valley
I survived the Rubicon but not Johnson Valley
Main Blog Index

Date Created: 12/06/2008

Went out to Johnson Valley today and went up a small canyon about a mile and a half long. Roughest trail to date for me. got about about 3/4 the way up and we decided to turn around and head back down. I got down to the bottom and on one of the easier section I caught a rock on the left side and fell into a hole on the right rear. and rolled it onto it's side. Nice slow roll. with some good damage. I hit the right side A pillar windshield frame, cracked the front window, front fender, smashed the right rear top and took out the side window. New top $1300, New fender $400, New windshield frame, window,
and body damage $1,500. Memories to share with friends for a lifetime, Priceless. I think I will use my American Express card a lot soon. I think since i spent all the money i did on this engine swap and goodies to go with it. Rolling was my biggest fears. But after it happen I didn't bother me, Bother Me, Bother Me. At all. The roll cage add-ons where money well spent.
I have the rear crossover bars from Rockhard and it landed on it square. No problem!!! So any of you guys out there have a hardtop, windshield frame, CHEAP? contact me!!!
