I'm sure glad you seem to be OK. That is scary. Many people have rolled their lifted XJ on pavement and offroad. Makes me worry. And wonder how/why.
Did you have to make an evasive maneuver? Mechanical failure? I look for the causes to hopefully prevent it from happening.

turning left into traffic out of the gas station after filling up for the week. of course the *******s who were passing that I was going to pull behind slowed down so I kinda swerved to the right and back to the left to come around the back of them. I guess frusteration had gotten the best of me and I ended up on my lid. After I got out I did see that one of my quick disconnects had lost a pin and come disconnected... I'm sure that didn't help.

Thanks for the reply. I have witnessed a car spin out of control doing the same maneuver. Quick right-hand lane change then jerked the wheel back left, spun 540 degrees across 4 lanes..

Lol, if it was off road only I'd buggy it. But it's my daily for when I can't take the bike.

Luckily I was able to call my own wrecker and have it towed to the shop I work at so I still have all my parts. Now I have to find another body. Anyone know of any near Columbus, Ohio?
