What John thinks happened is I busted my seal in the master when I mashed on the brakes. Once I knew I wasn't going to stop, I tried aiming for a tree but I hit an embankment in front of it.

After getting pulled back over and on level ground, I pulled a plug to check for oil. Then fired her right back up.


On the way back to camp I flexed it out. Does pretty good with the new coils.

OUCH


I don't think that will buff out, that's going to take a bit to fix.

Dont chop it the damage isnt bad enough from what i see to justify it. Just replace the window im not a huge fan of chopped b2s if you want a pickup get a ranger not to mention if it rains it sucks with an open back. Id definetly be caging it thougb

it doesnt look too bad. grab a new fender, try to pull the dents out a bit, a bit of bondo here and there and it'll look fine. body damage is inevitable.

Glad you're alright. Passenger to.

But those pics break my heart. I don't care how "minor" some say it is-- it hurts!
I mean it's really not super bad. But still

I know I already commented you on FB. I didn't know you had passenger I could imagin that with door off. I've was in a flop in a 88 ranger I was the passenger and the door was there and the window was up. We was on back counrty road and my buddy took a corner too quickly slid sideways in some gravel and the rear tire caught the grass on the burm and grabed. The truck floped onto the passenger side broke the window and pushed the mirror into the door. The truck was still running on it side, we both had our belts on and I couldn't get mine off. He kicked the windsheild in and cut me free. I was scared everytime we took a sharp turn for months after that.
