People forget, the object is to get from point A to point B. But heck if you can have a little fun along the way and a little adrenalin rush why not.
We have been Jeep people in my family for a couple of generations at least, if not a Jeep some kind of 4X. My older brother rolled his and died, my little brother rolled his and damamged his back, my wife rolled hers (with my son) and got out OK. My best friend lost his on the ice and blew both my knees out. Plus a whole litany of crashes I´ve seen. A short narrow wheel base is inherently unstable, plus the extra ground clearance built in and maybe overdriving the vehicle or conditions, is gonna bite you in the butt.
What I´m trying to say is chit happens, but if you go looking for it, it´s gonna happen sooner. Play safe.
When you mod your Jeep, really think about it. 600 lbs. of tires and center of gravity raised well above design tolerances, is a recipe for disaster.
PA has a lot of good points and I agree with his concerns, heck most of the points he has made are what kept me alive this long. [img]modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] [addsig]
