Novak Conversions Jeep Wrangler TJ engine mounts

What did you do to your TJ today?

Looks like the TJ will be parked for a while unfortunately. I got attacked by a conveyor belt at work Wednesday night and had to be flown to Inova Fairfax. After two surgeries in three days the doctors are optimistic about keeping my arm but it looks like my pinky might have other plans. I have a long road to recovery and probably won’t be able to drive a stick for a while or even work on my Jeep but I’ll still check in and try to help anyone I can. I have three more surgeries scheduled for next week. They’re flushing the wound out and applying artificial skin since I no longer have any on my forearm. Thankfully it wasn’t worse. Sorry for the gruesome pictures in advance lol

🙏 Praying for you bud! You've got a family here pulling for you!!
 
F*ck dude….sorry to hear about the accident…. Hope everything goes well in the recovery. All the very best….stay positive

I’ve been keeping the doctors and nurses laughing. It hurts like hell but if you make friends with the people giving you drugs it’s not so bad lol thanks for the support brother

I think my arm will be ok but the surgeon isn’t optimistic about the pinky finger. Thankfully I’m not British and don’t need my pinky for drinking tea lol accidents like this make you realize how many people are actually in your corner and my family and I have been overwhelmed with love and support.

I needed a vacation this was the quickest way. Plus I got a cool helicopter ride for the first time in my life lol unfortunately it was just a freak accident at work but it could have been worse. I was able to muster up the willpower to pull my arm out of the running conveyor belt and then dial 911 as I was walking across the building for help. I was the only calm one on the scene lol
