View Full Version : Rollover on Shaw Lake Rollover on Shaw Lake Schludwiller 06-04-2001, 01:13 AM Here's one of the pictures of his truck: http://www.4x4forum.com/images/Shaw_632001/Image14.jpg Here's a shot of my truck at the spot he rolled: xterrabull 06-04-2001, 01:33 AM That does not look fun... Actually, I'm surprised that big-@$$ ARB sticker didn't keep him from tipping....yeah, I can be a cynical bastard sometimes :D! Do you recall if you "felt" close to tipping when you where on the same part of the trail? Schludwiller 06-04-2001, 01:46 AM Oh yeah, I can remember feeling like I was going to tip. :eek: There were a lot of streams that would loosen the downhill slope. As you traversed some of the trails you would pivot the weight of your truck from the back tires and uphill front tire, to the front tires and downhill rear (that wonderful feeling when the weight of the truck shifts between your front and rear diagonal tires). Flying'S took that picure of me. We had some interesting shots watching the driver white knuckle the steering wheel as his truck tipped down the trail. I imagine we made it ok because it's a hard trail and we took it slow. Some of the guys with the modified trucks and lockers can take things a bit fast. Gravity effects us all equally. :( rhombus 06-06-2001, 05:36 PM Yikes is right! Have any of you thought about a rollcage for the X? I don't know if they is much room in the cabin for it but it would be a good thing to have. flyins2k 04-16-2004, 03:36 PM does anyones pictures work?
