I found out last night that one of my freinds was in a bad accident and he is in hospital with serious injuries.
I do not know exaclty what is wrong, or to what extent he is in right now, but hopefully i will get another update in a few hours.

All I have heard is that the are workin gon his HIp and Back :(

He was driving his Jeep on 751 in Durham NC when a car tried to cut in front of him to make the turn.

Well the other car hit him in the front drivers side tire and his TJ just used the BMW as a launching rap and drove staright up over it, which then put his tj into a flip and it then rolled 3 full times.

Please keep him in your thoughts.

Many thanks

I am sorry to here that..

Many prayers and thoughts for his family.

Damn Ken, He is lucky to be walking at all.

I saw the pic of the tcase parts in the back seat. Did he crack the case in the roll or is that what started it?

Get that Jeep out of the yard before parts start missing. No matter what they tell you the yard CANNOT keep your wreck if you want it at your house, shop, wherever. I know, I have a body shop.

That is what I told him.

But they are not listening to me..

Oh well he will be loosing not me..

Now for an update:

Found out at his last Doctor visit that he has a crushed vertabrate(sp). He can walk but still small baby steps, so this is gonna be a long recovery process.

I am just glad to here he should be fine , eventually.

He should find out more tomorrow if the Jeep is totaled or not.
