Default Friend rolled jeep

With me in it he rolled it into a 10 foot hole. We were upside down for an hour until more jeeps came and 6 hours later it was upright and restarted. Any suggestions on what to do after a rollover? We did take the plugs out before we started it and got her home?

x2, make sure your frame isnt twisted or anything, and make sure all your doors open and close ok. other than that if you want you can fix the body damage but it looks good to me.

don't chop the top!
that one up there^ won't last 5 minutes if rolled on the roof. that cage is preschool.
it's all about triangles, that one doesn't have any. and it looks like chit. imo.

sorry krawlthis if it is yours.

cherokees look good with a roof and doors.
