No, I haven't flopped my rig, but it's probably what I worry about most when wheelin'. Anyway, for future reference and slight peace of mind, what's a good way to right a flopped XJ without doing more damage? When we were in Tellico last summer one of the guys with us flopped his XJ on the passenger side. The only way I'd ever seen a flopped XJ recovered before was to bring the strap over the roof and wrap it around the b-pillar on the ground (the passenger-side b-pillar in this case), so that's what we did. It worked fine, but the force from the strap folded the rain gutters down over the tops of the doors. I've only recovered one flipped SWB Jeep before, and I just wrapped a strap around the frame rail on it, and as we all know you can't exactly do that on an XJ... So I was just wondering what other folks have done to get a unibody shiney side up again.
