OK.... I had a bad day wheeling yesterday...maybe not a bad day, atleast a bad 5 seconds...
John Cranfield and I were showing a couple girls that had attended the Jeep Jamboree in BC and were in NS on vacation a trail that we had just cleared this spring for the Jam. Victoria's Secret...
I was letting the Jeep pull me along in 2nd gear with no gas while straddling some ruts.. I then saw a tree coming ahead and pulled closer to the ruts to get around the tree and just as I was going around it my rear wheels fell into the rut sending my fender directly into the tree...CRUNCH! completely righting off the fender and then some at only, maybe 2 mph...
now here it is... The Jeep is almost new...2003 still stock other than skids and 31" mudders.
What would you do??
New flat tube fenders (like poison spyders)
It's almost a stupid question 'cause of the bias of the offroaders in this group.... would also like to here from those who do own a newer Jeeps and can sympathize with my tears I have shed...like I said...if I was rich...oh well big deal...but for me "the poor boy", it hurts cause I'm so broke! I just maxed the Visa on home reno's...
I love my Jeep and it breaks my heart knowing it may never look the same... Be nice guys...it hurts!
