good times gone bad for my gmc - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*gn4u2c* · 07-17-2005, 06:27 PM

well I was at a 4x4 get together and there was only one other chevy and a buch or crazy done up jeeps well we are doing trails and things and hanging out . Then for some reason these guys started getting cocky as all hell. Like a full size truck cannot do half what a jeep can well. Needles to say we started hooking em up The gmc pulled them all with ease. (lockers front and back

then we go do some trail action I trumped them on everything .
Then again they are talking like jeep is god so, There is one bad ass hill that no one has ever made it up without being winched. Well no one still has made it as I caught some good traction and BAMO !!!! freggin truck stands right up and flips over down the hill. It's pretty bent up.I did manage to drive it out of there but it's not happy

Only good thing was I did not get hurt. Knew it was going over and layed down on the seat. And the jeep fools were like ok you are crazy and that truck is bad ass if you will take on all that stuff without thinking twice and drive it after flipping it 2 ways. Will post some picks when my pops tows it home for me later. Happy 4 wheelin stay safe !

Glad your ok, as well, saw the "truck-ups" segment on TRUCKS on Sunday,, lots of roll-overs there...

*gn4u2c* · 07-18-2005, 11:26 AM

Yes it was the truck that was stolen I had just finished fixing it the day before, New locks, inj, engine swap AHHHHH sweeted my ash off in the heat around here for 1 day of fun .

*gn4u2c* · 07-18-2005, 11:31 AM

and

68haywagon · 07-18-2005, 11:41 AM

WOW you did a great job. Kick that roof up, weld in some roll bars, and show them jeeps guys what a GMC is made of

. Or you can make a 4x4 convertible

.

Important thing is your OK...now have fun with it

.

Mike

*gn4u2c* · 07-18-2005, 05:52 PM

I have had that thought already use a highlift jack, put a plexi window in it roll bar and BAMO !! Buck truck. However the drivetrain is so sweet in that truck, I just best find a 2wd lb with a cherry body and throw it up on there. + I need it and use it regular

Brainchild · 07-18-2005, 06:11 PM

All you need is 2 fenders,both doors a cab,and a bed,and she'll be good as new

Hard_Core_Hick · 07-18-2005, 06:35 PM

bita surgery and she will be good as new looks like u need a dent puller and a halfdecent cab , lucky it was ur truck and not u

LUV2XCLR8 · 07-18-2005, 06:44 PM

WOW, glad ur ok, I like the convertable idea

**N2TRUX** · 07-18-2005, 07:28 PM

I think it will buff out

If your not concerned with looks, just cut the top of the cab off a donor truck and weld it back on. That gives you a nice frame for your windshield again.

Oh yeah, add a roll bar and go get the freakin Jeepers....

lloyd k · 07-18-2005, 07:54 PM

OUCH-its easy to get outahand when your out fourwheelin,i had an 86 heavy 3/4 ton,4 wheel drive that i bought bran spankin new(last year for regular gas and factory dual exchaust)it would scream.my buddy bought a new toyota and he thought it was pretty hot,nothing compared to my chevy,he ended up crashing the front after cressiny a hill racing,ended up so far into it at the top trying to keep up and ran down the other side ,brakes didnt help and k-bom,my truck was awsome i look for an original one all the time -wish i had it back

86swb · 07-18-2005, 09:07 PM

Man you are lucky. That must have been some flip over you took, Also glad to here you are OK. Even in the condition it is in, it is still one kick ass truck. LOL

86 GMG · 07-19-2005, 09:26 AM

*gn4u2c* · 07-22-2005, 02:43 PM
