Had quite a bit of snow here yesterday so i took out the 90 all day! What a load of fun! Managed a few donuts to lol, roads up the mountain were fun, managed a few drifts lol! Spun out once up there, nothing major, until the way home. Went down a single track lane which i came up, started going down, realised i was in the wrong gear, picked up speed, started pumping the footbrake, next thing i know ive hit a banking and im starting to spin, i opposite lock it hoping it doesnt over turn, i manage to spin completely and end up in a fence! :D Phew, Managed to rip the floor clean off where the cubby box screws onto so i could see my transfer box lol! :D Was a total brown trouser moment and i hurt my knee and thumbs lol! Heres a pic i took on my phone!

Those trees are surprisingly unweilding when you hit them, as my old Cavalier found out a LONG time ago. Tree = 1, Car = 0
 
Difflock and low range for the win!!!

How did you rip the floor out to see the transfer box - under the cubby/3rd seat its an internally mounted cover with the Tranny box, transmission brake and prop shafts eblow so i can only presume you ripped it off grabbing it rather than from outside as a result of the crash?
 
Yea forgot to say, ripped it off due to hanging onto it with my left hand lol :p It was too late for diff lock by the time i realised mate. Got down the rest of it with Diff lock though :D
 
Remember to keep your thumbs well out of the way when going off road,I've known people with broken thumbs and it's no fun having to get people to help you with your toilet :0
