It's not only your friend, it will save your tranny. If you had a tranny gauge, I bet it would have been smoking hot! Steep climbs and boulder crawling quickly raise the tranny temp. Low range raises the RPMs so the fluid moves around and cools and doesn't sit and boil. Nice video though!
Hi, is it necessary to have trussed axles or C's welded on to do this type of wheeling? I have a 2 door JK Rubicon with 35" tires and wanted to know if I need to get that added before I do this type of wheeling. I to live in Colorado (Highlands Ranch). Thanx for your reply in advance!
Zdenek Stuchlik oh you are close to where I live! I live close to Parker. You won't need those for 35s and I personally only run c gussets, I don't think truss's are worth it, but everyone has their own opinion on that.
Loved to wheel with you, you guys had too much fun. Question: I notice you and your 2 door jk friend have stock wheels.how are they holding up on bigger tires?
srkn100 you are more than welcome to join! They are holding up great. You can run 10-12 psi and they hold the bead. I've banged the wheels up pretty good and they are holding up.
Ethan Gorosave it is. It's noticeably louder, especially because of the exhaust I have. The actual wind noise is tolerable unless it's really windy out or someone passes you with a loud exhaust. I daily drive it, so I'm use to it now.
Can't believe you went over that monster rock like half way through the vid lol
Brady Dingeldein should have come!
xj reppin da hi life tagz
Looks like a great time. I would love to wheel out there
The Bearded Jeeper thanks man! Anytime you want to come out let me know.
David Van Voris for sure will do!
another good vid, reminds me of just wheelin with my buds...hey what video software are you using?
Lee Dixon thanks again! Started using Final Cut Pro, but I am a rookie with it. Lol. So much to learn in there.
Such an awesome thumbnail shot!
hey guys don't be afraid to use low range!!! as soon as you hitting the trails low range is your friend!
V2Rotax definitely agree! I tend to only use it when I need to, but I know I need to use it the whole time. Thanks for watching!
no problem dude you got a sick jeep!!
V2Rotax thanks!

Awesome off road action - I know you said you run 26-28 lbs air pressure for daily driving, what do you air down to when off roading?
Ken Nelson typically 12-15lbs. I didn't go that low on this one, but I typically do.
do you think it's a good idea to run 35s with 4 inch x series lift?

Legit
Trail has changed a bit, not that quite that easy anymore.
Are you in low range in the jku? It doesn't look like it for a lot of the trail
John Davis I was for parts of it and I should have been for the whole thing. Lesson learned lol
Use your diffs!!
y'all have rubicons. Use your lockers!!!
Is that a bestop trektop nx? If so how quiet is it (wind noise)?
Ethan Gorosave it is. It's noticeably louder, especially because of the exhaust I have. The actual wind noise is tolerable unless it's really windy out or someone passes you with a loud exhaust. I daily drive it, so I'm use to it now.
are you like spraying something under your jeep at 12:14? and just before.
schnob92 no it's the Evap system which is a lot louder because of how open the front bumper is.
ah thanks. Love the jeeps, I really want one but for now I'm stuck just watchin' other people play around. haha
schnob92 thanks man. I'm sure you'll get one soon!
what's the XJ set-up? looks like 3" with 31's. both jku and jk have 35's?
JON BARTZ xj- 3.5" with 31s. Jk 2.5" with 35s. My JKU 4" with 37s.
nvm. haha
I really like your videos but please stop putting music over everything, the jeeps and trails sounds are way better. Not dogging you just a suggestion
Jack Davenport thanks Jack! I will definitely not use it as much.
