Looks like the MCE flatties held up good.

It rolled pretty hard and fast. Didnt feel it coming. The rock face I was climbing was real slick with mud and my front tires slipped and over i went. Damage was windshield frame, hood, toast... DS door surround cracked, and my rampage top got pretty tore up. The MCE did their job. Help up great and didnt tranfer any damage to the tub. Also the factory roll cage held up to my surprise... back DS pipe is a little scratched up but not compromised. Once we winched it back over had to pop off the coil pack and remove plugs. cranked the engine and blew oil out of all the ports. After that started right up. Smoked like hell for a few min but ran fine. All in all I was lucky. I got off easy.

Damn, glad you're ok. That is exactly the reason I have never done that climb. Don't think I'll try it until I at least get some form of cage over me.

eh...its not that bad once you do it once.
soem people it scares to death and they are affraid forever after it. Me, i am less afraid once i rolled one. i know what it is like and what the expect now.
After my first roll, i put it back on it wheels and went right back to where i had just rolled at to conquer it and did so. Gotta get back on the horse that threw ya.
glad everyone was okay and you kept on wheeling.

Yeah, I'll pass on rolling. I guess most people don't have that intention going into it... Congrats I guess though.

Your tube fenders held up? I had to switch to tubes after rolling this spring. The tube kit was cheaper than OEM replacements.
Going to upgrade your cage now? (it was the first thing I upgraded after I rolled)

Was in a full sized ford 350 crew cab long box work truck in the interior of BC Canada the driver lost it at speed and rolled it 16 times down a mountainside def not something I have any need to repeat... Thank god for roll cages on Jeeps, wish the truck would have had some.
