Trail Damage

this is a thread to post the caranage.

i'm to the point where my dents have dents, and if it weren't for the 3/16" plate armor my junk would look like a raisin now.

this is my first trip out, i had only made 2 payments on the rig

a couple months later i stuffed it under a rock wall

then added armor plate

the armor plate doesn't keep you from falling over, just from screwing the body up more

and once i got a cage, i had to make sure it was strong enough

"will you check all the grease fittings for me?"

i actually just flopped it pretty hard on this same obstacle last weekend. i was just trying to scare my buddy a little and smashed up the passenger side pretty good but nobody got pix, and now it's in the shop after i blew the trans

This was from my last off road trip to Wispering Pines. I also messed up my passenger side rocker pretty bad but didnt take a picture of it.

When Phunkeydude tried to run over a pink Jeep at Sedona, I was at the end of the group. I had to turn around in a tight trail that was lined with brush and trees. The trees pushed back when I pushed them out of the way to turn around. It all turned out good because I got to practice putting bed liner on both bumpers.

Glad I have the lifetime power-train warranty! I would hate to pay to fix one of those.

The parts on the Jeep TC is not bad at all. The part is only about $ 600. Where if it was a Toyota Land Cruiser, the LC TC is about $ 5000.

It just depends. I have seen worse things get covered by warranty.

Nope was not covered by motor plan as it happend off road. If it broke driving on road they would have covered it. We also cant expect Jeep to pay for all the stress we put our Jeeps thru.....lol.

Dude you have to feel just a little proud you broke that TC. I guess your not messing around when you leave the pavement LOL

I might have missed it but I did not see any entries in the August contest stuck/carnage. I think there is a lot of people who can post in this and a broken TC diffidently fits the carnage theme

You are correct, no entries. I guess we have to wait until next year! :)
