Whoever pre-runs that trail this year needs to take some pruners!
hes4all said:Looks like you do Steve. Very nice set up.
Do you have trails around where you live?
Get out and drive that puppy!
And ditto on the leather gloves!
Just curious, does your winch have cable or rope?
I put together a nice recovery bag with all the goodies in it!
And John, I carry a pruning saw too.
That way that is all I need to grab to help someone!
And a good tire plug kit is a must! I don't think anyone has said that yet!

I use Back Country Navigator on a Nexus 7 tablet - works great!taoshum said:if you have an android tablet with a built in GPS... find the app called "Back Country Navigator"... You'll love it for finding your way around the trails of Moab and many other places.

Ask Mike & Crystal how they liked it.<G>
Betty Brewer said:The trail starts out pretty enough and then... note the archway. I think it is about here that Mike turned around as this was an out and back trail to get scratches coming and going!
That depends entirely on the type, difficulty level of the trail and what you're driving. A stock 2-door JK Rubicon is very, very capable right off the showroom lot. A stock 4-door - no way Jose; I've seen stock 4-doors play the beached whale trick time and time again. I felt embarrassed for this one guy I was on a trail with - he had to be strapped over sharp breakovers maybe 6-8 times in one day. Made for a long day for everybody else :.vmax1 said:You dont need to prep for anything, my stock wrangler goes places atv driver are scared to go, save yourself the $$$$
The blurb I read said 3/16" steel so that's a positive. Generally speaking, Smittybuilt isn't exactly top of the shelf stuff.captsteve said:I may not have put up the right link. They are for the JK. They bolt where the stock ruby rails do on the floor and pinch weld.
