Re: 7 time roll over
After being in the Fire Dept I insisted on fabricating a roll cage for any vehicle I owned. Nothing too crazy, just a simple cage. Usually took me a few days, but from what I had seen in many many many accidents we had responded to was a roll cage would have saved the people from injurys and death. Didnt get around to doing a H2 cage yet, but I might pass on this one since, from the pics I have seen, the H2 seems very strong on side impact and roof impacts (rolls).
In the fire dept, the most injurys I saw was due to a passanger being crushed by the steering collum/ dash or driver door. It doesnt take too much of a cage to reinforce these area's and with a little planing it doesnt even get in your way.
If I buy a car in addition to my H2 there will DEFINATLY be a cage going into it.

Re: 7 time roll over
All I can say is "all those Idiots that say that H2s are re-bodied Tahoes haven't seen these pictures". After my accident and seeing other accidents involving H2s, there is no way that a Tahoe would withstand the impacts that these babies can take. I have never heard of a rollover involving a Tahoe or suburban that the passenger only received a scratch...... I guess size does matter!

Re: 7 time roll over

Wow! I would have been dead! My head is above the headrests. I'm glad to hear she's alright, but DAYAM!

Re: 7 time roll over
Shame about the mirrors. I would have been interested in getting a working pair on the cheap.  Let's see though I still need a clean passenger side rear tirewell trim piece. . ..... ok chances are that's in worse shape than mine too. Hows the rear? I need a new rear door latch assembly. Is it still intact? Glad everyone was ok.
