You are right, I had not thought about the stability on a wrangler. That would be a benefit to a longer wheelbase, it would ride nicer on the highway. But even then I would like to have easier loading of gear with more access points of 2 more doors.
I love my 2 door but every trip I do have a...
I got the 2 door for the short wheel base. When I am loading gear in the back seat area I wish I had more doors to get stuff in there. But I have never wished for my two door to be longer.
A long 2 door would be the worst of both worlds for me. Too long on tight trails and no easy way to get...
I have never made it to Bickel camp. We did not try to go this time but some years ago i did try but they were closed. What is at the Bickel Camp Museum?
SoCal Broncos. I just did Last Chance Canyon and it was awesome but a difficult trail. I recommend checking out the Last Chance Canyon, Randsburg, Jawbone area. It is Close to LA so you can make a day trip out of it...
I did Last Chance Canyon about 5 years ago and it has gotten much more difficult. Back 5 years ago I was in a truck with no lockers and 32" tires, it rubbed on a few rocks. Now even with 35's I was hitting the skids a lot. But a super fun trail. Interesting area.
Lots of old...
Yes there was some areas with rocks on the trail. I think I only touched the skid plates once.
There were some sort of pine trees but I can't tell you what type.

Some cool trails in SoCal we are lucky to live in such a beautiful area.
An hour and a half north of LA in the redrock canyon area are a bunch of off road trails. I am slowly working my way through them. I just did McIver's Jeep Road and some other trails going to and returning from this trail.

Your passenger is in the middle of the vehicle so only half their weight is on the front axle. So for a 200 Lbs person that's a 100 lbs on the front axle. I don't know how much my winch weigh is but considering I lifted it out of the box it came in it has to weigh less than 80 Lbs.
Plenty of people run a winch with no lift. It only brings the front down at most 1/4 inch they say.
I am about to add a winch so I will find out if it does make a difference. The weight of a winch is much less (1/3) compart to the weight of a passenger and you don't need to add a lift to have...
For the current price of $75 this looks like a great deal. Wireless carplay or android auto is not really wireless without wireless charging. The fans are a great idea, I have had my phone overheat when driving and I added a USB powered fan to cool my phone so this adding two fans is useful...
