  • Brand new Jeep Wrangler JL 392 on Portal axles and 40 inch tires nearly flips going up an obstacle on Pritchett Canyon in Moab during Easter Jeep Safari 2023. A little bit too much of a lead foot almost lead to the demise of a nearly 200k dollar wrangler build.
    Don’t get me wrong, this was a very challenging trail and everyone nearly flipped in one way or another. The driver did the best he could given the situation, his vehicle, and his experience.

    For the love of God, someone please tell this guy to air down his tires.

    something was up with the wheel setup. even at a crawl there was way too much slippage, and the tires looked like they were maybe a bit too inflated? I bet if he aired down and tried it again a little more slowly he'd have gotten through it. He didn't seem like he didn't know what to do.

    Driving the 392 is a different experience than the other engine offerings. You have to figure out throttle response all over again and that takes time. Likely this is the first time he has had to apply that much throttle off-road.

    After 30 years of visiting Moab Easter Jeep Safari this is why we quit going. Capable Jeeps such as this...and drivers have no skill to operate such equipment. It is sad, but we are done with these credit card drivers. Jeep Safari has become a joke as there is no qualifying of drivers so folks sign up for trails way above their heads. Moab used to be a show so when something broke drivers had the parts and the skill to fix it out on trail.
