- Join us as we lead a group out to Crawler Ridge at Rausch Creek PA. We were joined out on the trails with Grand Cherokees, Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Gladiators. Crawler Ridge is a Jeep Badge of Honor Trail and this was the first time we took our Jeep Gladiator Off Road at this park.

Another awesome video guys. As always I wish I was there. I never get tired of watching the underdog rigs hitting the trails. I hope the KL has a cheap and easy repair ahead of it.
I know Jeeps are designed for driving in places like this but I just can’t LOL. I have a 2020 Grand Cherokee High Altitude V8 that I love. I’d have a heart attack driving through there! LOL
After watching this I have serious regret passing on this obstacle. Yes there is some finesse needed but its really achievable and I shouldve gone for this. Love the video and now this gives me a reason to come back to this place
It’s doable for sure. Just have to find the right lines!
Totally agree with you! I did the same, or didn't do it either! Lol
I have both a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk 5.7 V8 engine and a 2022 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with the Xtreme Recon Package and LOVE them both.
Those Grands make this look challenging
Love this video. Fantastic. Thank you guys!
Thanks for watching!
We had such a great time with you guys! Just wanted to add two comments:
1- I’m a Jeep guy through and through, and the TH is all Jeep!
2- Sorry about Wilbur yipping throughout the video….😂🤣🐶🐶🙄. He had fun too!
Gland you guys came! it was great to meet up!
@@ProdigalOverland looking forward to the next trail ride. I hope to have some additional body armor by then and push the limits a little more.
We enjoyed having you guys and Wilbur is always welcome!
@@laurenkresge5336 thanks!!
Ya’ll need to figure out who is spotting someone .. ya both giving directions at the same time is no good ,, “One person spotting at a time”..
It may be some rpm sensors not tallying the numbers thus throwing gear ratio issues and would not engaged the 4wd.
I love the music
Thanks Ravin!
Got the Cherokee Trailhawk on this one ;-) looks kind of like mine.
Oh hey there
Saw video title, skipped ahead and when I saw the Cherokee heading up the trail I just *knew*…uh-oh. And yep.
Yep. That’s the one
@@ProdigalOverland PTU failure?
Wish I could have been there. Will have to keep an eye out for your events. Wonder how my tundra would do in rausch.
Next time!
Tundras are great trucks but I think they're too big. I've always found that the smaller vehicles are better. My renegade trailhawk and TJ made it up a lot easier than any of these vehicles did. Approach, break over, and departure angles are very important.
@@dirtycommtroop oh of course, definitely agree. I think tundras are deceivingly capable but has its limitations due to the size.
Yah something seems wrong with that KL, I been up a lot tougher spots than that and never had issues.
Great catching up a bit. Shows that the WKII is a very capable vehicle. I think a computer chip sunk the Cherokee. Be well.
I got a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited with a 6-in lift I'm dying to get out there with my brother and my wife and all their Jeeps... Getting them all fixed up to get ready to go hopefully hit the spring time ride
If the Cherokee has manual E-brake, would have been interesting to see if that would have helped get that left rear working a bit more.
Can I come with you guys one day? I’ve been there with a quad but never a Jeep. I’d be in a Jeep Wrangler.
Love from India ❤️
Quadra Drive II no longer available on 2023 Grand Cherokee. Quadra Lift is available, but only on 4Xe models. Quadra Drive II is available on Grand Wagoneer.
And great time was had by all! I, too, now regret not doing this section when I was with y'all at Rausch Creek; my very first off-roading experience with my brand new JGC TH then!
But, there's always a next time...as Harmut has proven; he's done this Trail at least four times (?) so he should be able to do it with his eyes closed!
Night wahr, Herr Hartmut? ;-)
I have a 2014 Cherokee Trailhawk 2 inch spacer lift 30 inch tires rock rails. In my car you have play with neutral and reverse with a little roll to get the rear locker on or off
This is probably a ‘over-reach’ for the WK2 Grand Cherokee Limited V6 on this trail. Oddly enough, I still want to give her the ‘Badge of Honor’ doing this!🔥🤘🏽💯 😅
Watching the video, at 6 minutes 10 seconds you talk about william having issues with his cherokee rear end. At about 45 seconds into the begining i thought i heard a little rear end breakage in that shot. You guys ever figure out what was wrong with it?
He ended up needing a new rear axle, But I'm not sure what exactly went wrong
@@ProdigalOverland wow!
I’m looking to get out there this summer. If a Grand Cherokee can do it then I think I should be fine with a 2 inch lift and 35s on my Wrangler. What do you think?
It's like he's stuck in auto or something. Or his clutches are gone. Not sure.... Never seen that kind of trouble ... He has a broken rear CV or something...
Awesome video! I’ve been to Rausch a few times but haven’t seen the mud pit at the 5:10 mark. Would you happen to have coordinates of it? Or the trail name/letter? Please and thanks
What the name of the intro song. It’s great.
Why cut it when he's getting tippy. That was the best part of the video :/
Our camera storage was full. It just cut out at that point. It was a bit frustrating for sure!
The other thing is, my wife's compass Trailhawk had an issue where the rear went out like that and it was just that some wires that were corroded . When that got fixed , zero issues.
I've never seen anything like that with mine. It's usually an insane amount of grip and very difficult to produce any slipping whatsoever. I'm on Cooper 265 65 17 . AT3 4s. Ridiculous grip... 4 low and rear locked ... Almost never slips .. just goes...
2 inch Teraflex lift... That's it. Just tires , lift and sliders. Nothing special. Climbs almost anything.
I run 27 psi , basically all the time. Street and trail. If you do the tire pressure conversion for larger tires you'll land on 29 psi to hold the same load as 36 in the old ones. I just go down 2 from that. I set mine to 27 using the Wrangler as a reference vehicle. If you go from it's LT tires to my metric 265s and support the same weight, you'll come up with 27 psi (even though it's LT tires are 37 psi- LT tires need more air - I know , it's counter intuitive). If I go on a long trip I'll put it to 32 . 36 is insane. Don't do that with upgraded tires . Way too stiff.
For something like these rocks i'd run 22 psi. I could explain why... Lotta boring research... 22 is the number though.
If I were there with my Cherokee this would be my setup for that obstacle (where he was stuck).
22 psi
Rear locked
4 Low
Rock mode
And probably throw it in 1st manual shift to prevent upshift.
Thanks for sharing. I appreciate the comments!
Trying to set up a day to come up. I’d like to do a class. Learn how to off road and see what my 4Runner TRD PRO can do
Sweet! I’ve you haven’t signed up for our newsletter yet. Head over to our website and do that. New events will go there first.
Hi
What is the pressure of the tires?
Regards from México 🤙
Does the cherokee have an option for a selectable locker?
It did. Not sure that it was engaging. Even though it said it was
@@ProdigalOverland thats pretty slick, looks like a fun trip
Thanks!
Can you put Harmet in contact with me? I want to see how he mounted everything to his Chief rack :) Or maybe he can simply take sime pics
Will do!
Would this be good for a 22 wrangler JLU Willys?
Sure!
@@ProdigalOverland Nice. Also can you go there anytime or do you have to be with a group of people?
@@chevyfan8428 they open Friday and weekends during the day. You have to have at least two rigs going in.
M/t are better for climbing
The problem is the vehicle. It’s not ment for this. In the slightest bit I’d never go off-roading with that Cherokee in my group. No thanks!!
You need to write big J and tell them all about it ,
