Just putting out a reminder to people to wear your seatbelts or harness every time you get in your jeep. I had a misshap today with my jeep. I was testing out my fresh engine in my jeep and the throttle stuck wide open in my yard and put me and my jeep into my 2 storage trailers at 60 km an hour. My harness was on as I do every time I get in it. I got out without a mark. The trailers did not. Very glad I got in the habit of putting on my harness before I move it. Steel can get fixed or replaced I can not. Happy safe jeeping.

Yes I have pics and I'm happy with this mess staying on my phone. Wildest ride in it so far. 60 km to stopped in 5 ft. On a side note I got a bicycle, lawn mower, rad, side of my garage, optima yellow top, winch fairlead and the first few ft of two 53" trailers and the swinging doors going cheap.

Started wearing my seatbelt in the late 70s after watching a driver at AMP walk away from a high speed crash in his Porsche on the back straight. All that was left was a cage and parts everywhere on the track. Sounds like you had quite the adventure, and didn't even leave the yard.

That would make for some great pics! lol |
