Thats why everyone should use a clutch defeat offroad, he sealed his fate when he pushed in the clutch. I gotta say though, I love how Jeepers band together to help one in need ;D

it was an automatic transmission I read through something on one of the forums and they said it was a stick. I don't see how an auto would roll back that fast. |

I was at HDR and heard about this rollover from Dan, the guy that took the couple to the hospital. But I did

and from vicki's other posts, it sounds like she knows the occupants and was there.
but he could still have popped it into neutral
looks like he was moving forward, applied brakes, and was intentionally rolling back to possibly change his path.

it's a combo of 2 at this point, i may add gussets from a 3rd.
koz main cage kit, it had the most for the least $$
a to z , i got the hoop to triangulate.
the gussets (if i add them) will come from blue torch fab works.
plus i may add a couple other pieces of tube/pipe in the rear, and grab handles. i know someone with a small bender to do the handles, we didn't think it would bend the cage.
i don't have josh money to do the custom route.

From what I could see on the video, it looked like an auto trans pan in front of the shovel.
Newer autos have such low resistance built into them for fuel economy that they can roll back real easy with your foot off the gas.
