I have no ego nor glorified opinion of my skill. Just want to learn. Iād prefer to figure out the limits of me (as a driver) and the bronco on 33s before moving up.
Thx for the other trail suggestions. Will try those first. With other people!
I was thinking sliders that stick out more are important (20 degree angle?). I read about older stock vehicles that do/have done the Rubicon on much smaller tires and I keep wondering if I can do it on stock Badlands 33s. Iām not afraid of body damage. Itās already pinstriped 4 weeks into...
Beautiful area. And thanks for the detailed response. I've never backpacked in grizzly country. Makes me nervous. Although rationally I know the risk is small. I spend most of my backpacking days in the Sierras, but that's easy cause I live in California. My other days are in Southwestern...
I like your camping style. I stick with my old backpacking tent. I'm too lazy for a rooftop tent. Plus I don't like how top-heavy it makes a vehicle and the additional weight.
Curious about your rack choice. Why did you go with the HOSS3 (I assume that's what it is?) vs the new 74weld solution...
Thx for the video! That looks similar to the concrete wall at the Hollister off-road area (northernCA). I did that with a spotter. Was scary the first time. Used both lockers after I started to slip. Then did it a second time without lockers. Less scary. But still some puckering!
Thanks. The only time I offroaded in Moab was in 1989. We rented a Jeep in Moab (not sure if it was a CJ or YJ). Went down Shafer trail and down Potash to the river. I remember being exhilarated. And terrified as a passenger going back up Shafer. It was really cool. But I never pursued...
Yeah is what I was thinking as a short term solution to compensate for the increased weight of a bumper and winch. Keep the OEM Bilstein struts and change the springs. Is this already discussed at length in another thread? Is it advisable? Is there a way to calculate the spring rate needed based...
This is exactly what I would like. (The Valkerie setup isnāt available anymore despite being on their website. )
Trailrax told me their standalone crossbar option will be available later this summer. But requires the purchase of the PaxRax. Itās not full standalone...
Looks like a great solution. Iād use it with my OEM Capable Bumper just for insurance and future upgrades. How do you recommend drilling the holes for the front most horizontal bolts? Attach with the existing rear bolt and mark it? Or keep it attached and drill? Drill through both sides in one...
