- Got some Cherokees together for one last romp in the woods for the season. It was a great day on the trails and everyone enjoyed it despite some unintended damage to the doors of everyone who didn't have rock rails. I still feel soo bad about that!
Keep an eye out for more random vids over the winter, but i don't think i'll be out wheeling until spring. There is a high chance there will be a Modified spring ride in commemoration of my 2 year lift and tires!
Finally got some much needed PC upgrades installed so after reinstalling everything i started editing some stuff again! (still missing some of my settings...oh well)
Mods:
-Rocky Road Super Sliders (rock rails)
-Dobinsons KL Trailhawk suspension lift, paired with partial Hazard Sky lift spacers to achieve 2.5" lift
-32" Milestar Patagonia MTs (265/70/17) (had to trim front fenders and pinch welds)
-40" Rough Country Curved LED DLR Light bar with Hazard Sky mounts
-Rock Lights (cheapo)
-4" Pod Lights (cheapo)

It was Awesome to see another Jeep Cherokee pulling another Cherokee that was stuck! 👍🏾
I have always wanted a JK and then rented a KL and fell in love. For at least a year I’ve been seriously hunting and exactly one week ago I bought my first car on my own and it’s a ‘19 stock trailhawk. I’m am so excited for what’s to come and your channel has been a huge motivator in what’s capable and what’s to come. Thank you.
Thanks man! Glad i could help!
Excellent show and enjoy it w hashing
Can't wait to get mine fixed from my trip to Badlands off road park in Indiana. Waiting on a new transfer case still. Ugh I'm ready for some more trials.
Did you make it out to the Badlands? I live in Indiana and wheeled two other vehicles there in the past and am wondering how a Trailhawk does out there.
These Hawks are beasts, love your videos, keep them coming.
There was some nasty diarrhea in there. Also some pretty gnarly ruts that I was happy to see the stocks go through. I guess one advantage of not having a pumpkin hanging down in the middle.
Or the ultra low hanging transfer Case on the jeep wj. I personally clocked mine on the wj 8 degrees and was able gain an additional 3 in of ground clearance under it.
Love seeing all the T/H 4x4ing
Me too!
Had a great time, look forward to more of your events
Thanks for coming! I also look forward to more rides!
I had a lot of fun, can't wait for the next ride
Thanks! Glad you had fun man!
S/O from Franklin County!! 🤝
Thanks again for leading and filming! :)
Glad you had fun! Thanks for coming out! (or i wouldn't have anyone to lead!)
I just added 33" KO2s to 2013 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk, haven't taken it out yet, but it looks really nice.
Awesome video as always 👌
looks like a fun time. Could be interesting to bring the liberty out for a run,
What a pretty area to wheel! I’ll make it out there someday lol
Its alright i guess. But i'm a bit jaded as i have spent most of my adult life traveling...
Looks fun! Will have to come up from Tennessee and join you sometime!
Had a couple rigs come from Illinois for this run!
Keep up the good work
Great to see a new video 👍
Life got a little crazy there for a bit...trying to play catch-up now that winter is a bit slower for me!
@@FearlessTrailhawk I remember. Post when you can. We always enjoy your videos.
Awesome!
Молодцы, красивую компанию собрали!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed!
Yikes, that grey one looked like Sean’s grey one after a snow wheeling incident last year. Such an expensive fix. Anyway great vid!
Yeah, this guys 'fix' was the coyote sticker...lol
Great video!
Lotta grunt in those Cherokees!
Mine is the 2020 V6 Trailhawk.
Curious,does the turbo V4 have enough low end power over the V6 when engaged in 4x4?
There are lots of guys who wheel the turbo. Alas, i am not one of them.
Do you all have that super slick clay that I run into when visiting home in eastern KY (Ashland, KY across the river from Ironton, OH)? I don't have that where I live or the places I can wheel on the eastern side of the Appalachians. I cross over the mountains and wheel with my brothers and they're like "there's some snot up here....be careful, it's super slick". Sure enough, it's like driving on wet ice.
It can be. There are spots that have clay and others that don't. If it had been wet like the forecast had predicted i would not have done the final trail. That whole hill just gets too greasy.
Always good to see your videos, where was this at.
Thanks! It is some old county roads that are "local" to me in Ohio. My club runs them atleast once every month.
@@FearlessTrailhawk we should meet up sometime for some trails and shoot some video.
That could be fun.
IN the future I would like to know what 4x4 setting you were using, 4LOW, Locker, terrain selection, etc and when you switch .
Sorry my dude, not being rude, just being honest, but i got more important things to worry about while recording trail video and making content. I put up a video this spring about how to use the different systems in 4Low. That is how i use the 4x4 systems.

FYI, 99% of the time i'm on a trail...i'm in 4Low, and in "Auto" mode. Only use the other modes for their specific obstacles. I'll use the locker on an as-needed basis as well, will turn it on for specific situations where i want to guarantee traction, and turn it right back off once i'm through.
Have y’all had any of the jeep compass Trailhawk’s out there
None yet
Gotta ask what tires are you running ?

how many miles do you have on it now? looks like you travel a bit with it. curious what i should expect with my 2020 TH
52k miles, 2.5 years. Your gas mileage will vary, i cannot speak to what you WILL get, only that if you mod it expect anywhere between 16 and 22 mpg. Your maintenance will vary. Some have to do lots, some have to do nothing. There are a few good Cherokee related forums and FaceBook groups out there with way more knowledgeable people than me...i'm just someone who drives and makes videos.
I have a 2019 TH Cherokee, what's the biggest tire with no lift
HAHAHA thats the most asked Jeep question ever...but i don't have the answer. Its likely been asked on numerous forums and facebook pages though!
Have you had to replace any rear control arms yet? They get really beat up on the rocks.
Not yet. I've only heard of one guy that has. CV's and wheel bearings, but no control arms yet. They are scratched, gouged, and dented to hell though.
@@FearlessTrailhawk I just replaced my passenger rear lower, the bushings were not centered after hitting something and who know when, I check them all the time know. I just installed the Dobinsons lift kit on top of my HS 1.5, loving it. Just need to get a bigger tire, currently on 245/70/17 BFG K02s.
Are these the current state of the 'abandoned township roads' in Vinton County? I stopped reading up on them when I saw the State was trying to trick the commissioners into basically giving them up to turn into ATV trails.
It is true, we have lost a few roads over the years. But there are still over a dozen active public easements in Vinton County. But most area vets advise going with others who know the trails as loners who are out 'exploring' and ending up on private property or abusing the trails is what has closed roads in the past. None of us what to see that again!
@@FearlessTrailhawk Definitely not. I'd hate for you to loose one if the only places to wheel in the state.
Right on man! Soo many ppl just don't understand that! "But i just want to wheel...waawaaa"....yeah, so do the rest of us! The main clubs are always fielding complaints from non-members who just want a location on the map they can 'go on their own'. And i get yelled at my fair share for not giving locations away saying i'm being selfish. And i'm like "yep, i don't want you getting my home trails shut down!"
Is there any transmission problems with the 2019 and up Cherokees?
No clue. Only issue i had with mine was likely from a heavy rear end collision. But thats the only knowledge on the subject i can impart, sorry.
Do the trailhawks have detachable sway bar? I thought they did, but having trouble confirming.
Ummmm, no. Never have. Though, anything is detachable if you have the right tools i guess. You might be getting confused by the press from the new redesigned Grand Cherokee that will offer a new disconnect...
The red Cherokee behind you is a stock Trailhawk? If it is I have the same and would love to try these trails.
Also with those pod lights on the hood (I have similar setup, clamp mount to hood) do you notice hood vibration on highways (around 70mph)? Occasionally I think my hood is not latched correctly, seeing the vibration. I know these are lighter hoods than the older ones, but sometimes it's wierd.
I think he had lift, but not 100%. Plus the rock sliders.
@@FearlessTrailhawk I have the factory rock sliders (metal rockers no step).
@@joel.7372 Sadly those would not have helped prevent the door damage a few of them received that day. I get that they look clean, but they don't offer any protection from the side.
I noticed this too. The hood on my 2019 KL Trailhawk looks like it's going to fly open whenever I drive at highway speeds. It's pretty startling how much it vibrates. Flimsy unreinforced sheet metal, perhaps? My only mod is the hazard sky 2" lift. No fancy lights, sliders or tires, so far.
@@iyhnALEX there are little hood stopper screws you can adjust to calm that down a lot. I don't notice it much anymore.
You ever do anything in Michigan?
Not yet, all the good stuff is 7+ hours from me and i burn all my vacation days to go to more exotic locations... 😋
@@FearlessTrailhawk I've been wanting to go to a place but don't really know many places or have people to go with. Maybe next year I'll join you
Does that one Cherokee that has 11 badges have an instagram account. Would love to follow him
The grey one? No idea, sorry.
Last jeep got a little tilty lol
That he did! Not sure exactly how he got into that position, as i was parking mine at the top.
Off road? 🥱
Haha, you're right, you got me, this was all in the mall parking lot right infront of Starbucks...we just used some creative camera angles.
Okay David. That’s why you clicked on this video because you’re probably driving a Prius wishing you had a 4x4
