Main Topic: Going Where No One Else Does!!

Many of us travel trails less traveled. That is what we love about 4 wheeling. But that idea in itself prevents many problems, obstacles and challenges. Going where many do not in a vehicle designed for modern travel. What gear do you need for these trips?

Chainsaw, loppers, garbage bags, straps, snatch block, shovel, digging bar
Spare tire, high lift, shackles,

Knowing your limits…and being prepared.

Visiting the Rubicon
If you have the driving skills, a brand new stock Wrangler can be driven through the Rubicon, taking the bypasses. Most people should expect sheet metal damage, at a minimum. Larger tires (33”), a lift kit (3”), body protection (rocker guards) and a locking or limited slip differential should be considered to prevent damage.

Listener Feedback:

A few episodes ago you asked that XJ Cherokee owners email you to let you know that we listened to your podcast. I have listened to every episode, even on your previous network, as I enjoy your show. I believe there are probably numerous XJ listeners in your audience after all there is a huge parts aftermarket for the XJ and they are still very popular on the trail. XJ’s are very capable Jeeps when prepared correctly just like any other Jeep. Mine is a 1992 four door California Jeep still in great condition. I have installed frame stiffeners and have had no problems that you allude to with having a unitized body. It is used as our second car and can still comfortably carry the whole family and yet go off road, something you appear to nervous to do with your $40,000 JKU.

I think XJ’s are one of the “best bang for the bucks” out there. Mine has an 8 inch left with long arm suspension, lockers front and rear, body armour (store bought and self made) plus many other upgrades and still has air conditioning and power windows. The wife likes to drive it off road also, and is becoming decent at it. We do all kinds of off road driving from the Colorado Rockies to Ocotillo Wells at Anza Borrego,Ca. I don’t really care to do STRICKLY rock crawling, as you are just asking to tear up your rig or break something NEEDLESSLY that you have spent a lot of time and money on. It has gone over its fair share of rocks when needed. I nicknamed the Wrangler looking body style Jeeps “Belly button” Jeeps as everybody has one.
