First Flop
« on: Nov 20, 2005, 08:00:28 PM »
Last night I took my first flop. It was on a hill that I've made who knows how many times before and was completely unexpected. For the most part everything was ok except for the hydrolocked engine due to the oil filling the cylinders and a dent on the side of the cab. But I drove it home so everything's ok.

The passenger side doesn't look that bad, the pillar behind the door by the latch is pretty smashed and it made a dent on the front fender a little bigger but other than that it came out pretty good, it could have been a lot worse, the windshield didn't get broke.

No, it keeps the door from rattling and coming open on the trails, they're my door locks.
