Project-JK Valley of Fire Logandale Jeep Trails

[Skail115]

Did you have your Dana 60's in this video. Maybe Im looking at the wrong Jeep but it looks like your are running different wheels and tires. Not the 20's with 40's

[wayalife]

@Skail115 good eye. back then, we were still running factory 44's with 37's

[amodrocks]

sick



[EchoShotz]

What tire carrier does your JK have wayalife? I've been looking for one that holds jerry cans like yours does.

[wayalife]

@EchoShotz LoD Off Road

[btarrh]

I haven't wheeled in a JK yet, I know my TJ's ride was greatly increased when I added my long arm. Wish I lived out west, jealous.

[z50king29]

awesome video! I drove through the state park while i was last in vegas

[dre200112000]

do you you think the two doors or the four do better overall in that terrain? does the shorter wheelbase give it an advantage, also do you think the 4 door has a better overall ride quality on road? thanks

[wayalife]

@dre200112000 the only place the 2-door has an advantage is in the s-turn. aside from that, i think that 4-doors have the advantage here. overall ride quality on or off road, the 4-door has the 2-door beat.

[drexelpike]

@wayalife i'll say the shorter wheelbase of the 2dr also has an advantage for beach driving. i know you're more of a rocks guy, but just thought i'd throw my .02 out there.

[drexelpike]

@wayalife although a bit off-topic.. i missed the 'in that terrain' from dre200112000

[MrDom42]

Thank you! I just bought a 4door . Tryn to do my home work :). Much appreciated .

[MrDom42]

what coil over setup is on that white 4door?

[wayalife]

@MrDom42 Off Road Evolution

[thekiller2133]

how high is your jeep lifted.?

[wayalife]

@thekiller2133 in this video, only about 4.5"

[thekiller2133]

@wayalife ok thanks , i bought this lift kit 4" X-series Kit

Features X-Flex Joints for my jeep u think its any good... ?

[MsMexicanmonkey]

damn insurance people i want one so bad but i cant afford 500 bucks a month

[YELLEBG]

I've turned in to a "Project-JK" junkie...Sandra, you've got mad video recording & editing skills.  Your final posts are worthy of high praise. What are you using for cameras and editing software? On PC or Mac? Did you teach yourself how to do this or do you have some formal background in video? I've been toying with the idea of building a J8 Milspec (AEV) with a 4BT and NV4500 HD tranny on some 40 or 42's...

[wayalife]

@YELLEBG thank you. we are just using a cheap sony hd cam that we bought at costco and adobe premier cs5 on a pc. cindy, taught herself how to do all this - no schooling.

[YELLEBG]

@wayalife Sorry for the getting the name wrong Cindy...ugh...long week....wanna be wheelin' instead of workin'. Your vids are truly a blessing! Great work! Lovin' the music too! Nice balance between that & "jeepin' sounds". C'est magnifique!

[IRunzXbL1]

your OIIIIIIIO = god-like:)

[ambienttechno]

So fun, You guys got nerves of steel and some wicked trucks!

[tehmanfromsnowyriver]

What a badass video



[fallingzeppelin69]

so whats in the bathroom?

[wayalife]

@fallingzeppelin69 you have to watch the end of the video

[spamstoper3]

*****

[csc9950]

i worship you guys!

[NullusxVotum]

Love my JKU!

[luis051692]

your jeep rules

[idriveacab]

I currently own a 06 TJ with 3 inch teraflex and 32 inch tires. Love it but have been dreaming of a CJ. I have watched all your videos with the JK and really think jeep needs to contact you for marketing options, because you are really making me want to hop down to the dealership. Great stuff.

[badassYJ69]

I am glad to see the garbage bag on the back, nice to see responsible trail users. If everyone did this less trails would be closed.

[TheKodaShane]

So what's the purpose of the sack or whatever that is hanging from your spare tire?

[wayalife]

@TheKodaShane we use it to haul out whatever trash we find on the trail. you'd be surprised at how much of it can be found.

[TheKodaShane]

@wayalife You'd think people would have the respect to at least pick up after themselves..I never would have guessed thats what they where for though hah. I joined your forum just the other day, awesome site! username: lol just JK

[wayalife]

@TheKodaShane yeah, you would think. funny thing is, these same yahoos who whine about all our trails getting closed and wonder why. glad that you found our forum :)

[badassYJ69]

@TheKodaShane

Very nice to see the garbage bag hanging on the back, not often we see responsible trail users. If everyone did this to haul out trash we would have a lot less trail closures.

[iconhelmets]

When you rock crawl are you in 4L or 4H? because with 4H you get better speed, but with 4Lyou get more torque, and last question is on the gear box for an automatic the last two things say 2 then 1 is this just for towing or do you put it in 1 so as to not overheat somefluid i forget which. Also were your dana 60's hard to install? Sorry about all my questions

[wayalife]

@iconhelmets you always want to rockcrawl in 4L and 2 and 1 should be used. regarding the dana 60's, you will need to get gears and lockers installed by a professional.

[iconhelmets]

Sorry about all my questions

[adigalben]

After seeing this I do beleive that Jeep is the ultimate Machine!

[jared2235]

Ha watching this makes me want to be able to find a used leaf spring for my comanche wich i cant they are too expensive new to buy and too hard to find used

[MrDimonice]

это просто мега машина))))

[VanHoolPilot]

I love the video, superbly produced, but what some of you videodudes do not understand is that not everyone wants to look at shit on a toilet seat. I was about to post a link to the video in a memo to my commercial clients and family, but not all of them appreciate, for any number of reasons, the last few seconds of the video. In producing a video for general viewing, was the shit on the toilet seat necessary or could it have been left to our imagination? Not images one posts in a business memo.

[rickschade]

as it was meant to be

[L2S408]

great video!!!

[shinhigh]

jeepers paradise! How much did you pay for your fenders?

[regulator2delta]

the asian guy with the ponytale has the coolest looking jeep

[austinax123]

The guy drivin that white 4 door is a STUD driver

[alterwave]

I want a jeep bad enough already... this video just makes me plain jealous! nice rigs guys!

[jeepcummins721]

love ur rigs .... how r those baja claws treatin u ....i was planin on puttin a set on my jeep

[wayalife]

@jeepcummins721 the baja claws are run by dave and he seems to like them a lot.

[TheBAKERsk8er14]

just imagine an effin hummer h3 do tht.....not!!!!!!!! jeep rules!!!!

[errenthovsep]

can you off road in a stick shift wrangler just as good? i was thinking of getting a manual tranny

[wayalife]

@errenthovsep it's what i use and i'm the one with the big white jeep and stinger going through the s-turns :-)

[errenthovsep]

@wayalife alright thanks man i wanna get a white 4 door wrangler manual sport package one last question is the humvee looking soft top original or aftermarket? the soft top but not the original square shape the Humvee looking one

[cairnsguy22]

@wayalife Yea was gonna say, most people prefer an auto because they don't like to clutch, but I think if properly driver, a manual is more capable. I've seen too many occasions where accidents on the trail could have been avoided by simply disengaging the clutch, but since they were using an auto it just kept driving forward. Just my .02 anyhow.

[CharmedFreaxxx]

The white Jeep with the big crash bar sticking like 3 feet (ha) what kind is that? Really dig it man

[wayalife]

@CharmedFreaxxx it's an LoD shorty front bumper with stinger

[Pikespeak67]

Great Video, Looks like a fun trail!!

[yessamskates]

I want the white one so bad.

[thetrolone]

did the chick at the start eat your spare tires?

[m3bassman1]

nice videos man they are great. im actually in the process of buying a 2001 wrangler sport with only 34,000 miles. its been lifted and has a winch so besides it not having locking diffs( although i think they are critical) its pretty setup for hitting the trails. im curious where you got that rack on the back that holds the gas cans on either side of the tire. ide be interested in one when i pick my jeep up next spring. too bad you guys arent closer to north idaho, i need people to trail with!

[shotgunjohny]

You guys look like such a fun group of ppl, and your vids make me wish id bought a jeep, at least i know waht my next car is gunna be :)

[FireballGER]

I whis, I would life in the united states of amerika..... to share the same passion, but over here in germany its not legal to drive in the nature, everyone is immediately pissed of..... oh I tink I have to move my ass ;-) great vid great landscape, and also great cars...... have fun this summer, ;-)

[Viperdoom]

Love goin wheelin... i have a 1986 toyota pickup 9" lift on 35's. If you guys ever head out to colorado there is a place called "Point of NO Return". That trail will give you a great challenge. little of everything. My fathers 1977 CJ7 barely made it... Its near Alamosa, CO. Have fun if you guys wanna try it.

[JIMMIEDFLAME]

wata hell... white people is having adventure.

[CrossmanM]

god this is amazing! Much respect! i wish i could do this but my 96 wrangler isnt all that good = [ Im going to get a jeep like these one day!

[ScrappyTURBO]

Ah takes me back when my bro had a JEEP. His wife did not like it so he sold it. Now they got devorceed and he is stuck with a YOURS what he does not use. Thanks wayalife for the reminder of how rad it is to go JEEPING. I am off to get a 4 door JK........... !ASAP! I MISS GOING JEEPING!!!!!

[wayalife]

@ScrappyTURBO well, when you do get it, make sure to visit us over on jk-forum . com :)

[ScrappyTURBO]

[UNENCUMBERED1]

some of these places you guys go i wouldnt even think of taking a vehicle

[fisherman783]

Do you guys change your tires when you get there like use smaller tires on the road and and change to the big ones when you get to the trail?

[wayalife]

nope, what you see is what we got and we drive our jeeps to the trail and back :)

[ajh1031]

@fisherman783 some of us even drive to the trails from home. instead of towing them

[Scotts98TJ]

Nice video and nice Jeeps!! What is the bag hanging from the spare tire though??

[wayalife]

it's a trash bag. we use it to help pick up and haul out beer cans and other crap that obnoxious yahoos leave behind on the trail.

[Scotts98TJ]

ahh nice!! I hate trash on the trail!!

[gaited07]

WoW, what a video adventure, LOVED IT!!!

I've been on most of these trails with my horse. There are some pretty tricky spots back there but it sure is beautiful. If you get a chance, try the Black Diamond trail. I've done this by accident coming in from the back side. Makes for some interesting riding;)

[redneck3913]

like you want to use it as little as possible. off road.

[wayalife]

if you're off roading on a tough trail, you want to leave it in 4LO.

[redneck3913]

i have been told that its bad to keep it in 4 wheele drive low is this true?

[wayalife]

did the person who told you this explain their logic behind this comment? honestly, this person doesn't know what the heck they're talking about. it's only bad to be in 4LO if you're driving on pavement or need to exceed speeds over 30 mph. for the most part, if you're on a tough trail that you're creeping along on, it's better to keep it in 4LO the whole time. this is pretty much standard practice.

[jtp1717]

my uncle really got me into jeeps and I feel like getting a manual would be a pain for offroading/two tracking because you have to constantly shift/clutch. Is it worth it to have a manual? What are the most beneficial parts of having one?

[wayalife]

well, in all fairness, when you're on a tough trail, you're pretty much in 4LO the whole time and not really shifting a whole lot or, at least, that's what you should be doing. granted, an auto is so much easier to wheel in and whenever i do, i feel like i'm cheating. a manual is best in steep descents as you have way better engine braking abilities.

[DallasStars248]

@wayalife Thank you for answering all my questions! I appreciate it!

[DallasStars248]

I have another question, when mudding should you use 4l or 4h? I know 4l puts more torque but do you need more torque when mudding? Or should i just engage 4l when hitting the really bad stuff, and 4h on the easy stuff? Thankyou!!!

[wayalife]

depends on the mud, how deep it is and how you plan on taking it.  i prefer to keep it in 4LO but in a higher gear so that i can spin the wheels hard to help clear the tread if needed. but then, i'm out in socal where we don't see a whole lot of mud and i know back east and in the south, it's a whole different game altogether.

[DallasStars248]

When climbing in a manual, lets say you stop, and you want to keep going, what prevents you from rolling back wards right before your plates engage?

[Trueduster]

From what I've heard/seen from the other JK vids wayalife has, its the E-brake but thats just what i've heard never climbed with a manual.

[wayalife]

use your e-brake. depending on how steep of a hill or rock you are on, it will hold or hold just enough. keep your hand on the e-brake and as you start letting off the clutch/applying gas, wait till you start to feel it move forward and slowly let the e-brake down. this will also help you to keep your rpm's down and clutch burning to a minimum.

[DallasStars248]

@wayalife thankyou!

[christian2]

Best JK vids on the net!

Thanx, great stuff :-)

[julesw71]

Whe do you American's always have to spoil your video's with a music sound track? The sound of the Jeep's is all that's needed!! Appart from the music, great video.

[julesw71]

Why do you American's have to mess up every video with a music sound track? The sound of the Jeep's is all that I want to hear!! Other than that, great video.

[marcel51017]

nice video ;)

[GraphicDejavuFx]

soooo many sexy jeeps

[fact0is0fear]

WOW just amazing my dad just got me a 07 jeep sahara unlimited but one problem........ its f***ing 2wd now it will go through more than any other 2wd but should i try to buy a new transmision and drive shaft to make it 4. and one other thing, tell me somthing to convence him to let me get 4wd. he says "you will just go out ther and beat it up" and how much is your insurence

[wayalife]

all you need is a transfer case and a front axle. depending on what you are planning to do, you can find a used dana 30 front axle for cheap and an X or sahara transfer case for cheap too. insurance really isn't that much more than what you are paying now.

[hockeyrock101]

none of them have 2wd they all come 4x4 my dad used to have one they all come 4 so dont say its 2 because all there cars are 4wd ok

[fact0is0fear]

wow get off the JEEP channel please

[copenhagensmile02]

they actually DO make 2wd JK wranglers. You should make sure you know what you are talking about before you open you rmouth. KID.

[SteveO199150]

If your dad is getting you a new jeep, you should stay off the trails anyway, you gotta DESERVE your jeep, not just have it given to you

[fact0is0fear]

to tell you the truth i actully agree with you on that, but it is hard to keep it on road man and i would rather buy my own if i had the money cause its like owning a trophy that somebody bought for you

[SteveO199150]

good call on that, ive been trying to get a jeep for 3 years now but all the times my parents offered to loan me the money i said i would make it first so i can be proud of owning my own creation

[pilatus5000]

Dude your videos are slick.... I just watched all of them........no joke.... If I win the lottery im gonna come wheel with your club...lol

cheers!

[JerkEnginyrdEvryPart]

Enviros can shut down all they want, lock it up and hit the rocks next to the gate. Nice to see JKs, even moderate ones, actually crawling rock and not the local mall parking lot

[f250bigdog]

I thought all the enviro's shut that all down nice job

[walkonsta2000]

CHIDO TU VIDEO MEN.

[ZLITES101]

does the stock JK Rubicons come stock dana 44s in the front or is it 30s?

[wayalife]

they come with 44's

[HeavyChevyK10]

Dana 44 center section but Dana 30 tubes and knuckles.

[1000sheilds]

what axles are you guys running and what size tires

[wayalife]

most of us are running dana 44 front and rear and a minimum tire size of 35"

[unitaper]

if its in the credits i didn't see it, I never watch the credits in your vids, i know its a sin =/ I'll watch it again.

[unitaper]

what was in the bathroom in the beginning?

[wayalife]

LOL!! i take it you didn't watch the whole video? you need to see the end.

[yourmoma0403]

Do you have to have a jk to go wheelen with you because i have a wrangler x and do you know any good trails in florida.

[wayalife]

nope, anyone is welcome but most of the people who do come do own JK's. as far as trails in FL goes, sorry, i wouldn't know.

[pacificcoast]

whats the deal with the burlap bags hanging off the back of some of the jeeps?

[wayalife]

they are trash bags - we use them to pick up crap that others leave behind.

[pacificcoast]

very commendable! we do the same thing when camping out in the desert. i'm happy to see you guys doing a good thing for the sport/hobby.

[1000sheilds]

kudos to you. really. leave only foot prints. take only pictures

[DJKing78]

Poor GPS at the end! This is my favorite video of this groups.

[Offroadpr]

Hot Video! Got to post mines

[JeepTJ78822189]

This video makes me wanna sell my TJ and go JK

[wayalife]

honestly, i'm selling my built up tj now and already bought a 2nd jk.

[JeepTJ78822189]

Sweet! I gotta get out west looks great.

[ZLITES101]

Are you still rollin on a stock motor?

[wayalife]

yup. the 3.8 isn't the greatest motor but it does get the job done.

[cuete909]

Jake is nuts! that was a hair pin turn from hell...I call next.

[semikrazy9]

Brings back memories. I spent a lot of time there back in the '90s with my CJ-5. Now I'm in Oregon with that same old Jeep.

[emmielie]

Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[eacampos73080]

que cabrones son  saludossssss desde mexico

[Made4aWomyn]

So awesome ,

I will be moving to Henderson next month...

[drbubble33]

What camera was this shot with? Great video!

[REL1203]

Hey Eddie, i would love to know this as well, and what format do you convert it to before you upload... Your vids always look the best and would love to know your trick

[ahzarit]

Great video! Had to re watch it after saw HD availability;) Makes me want to ride my rubi to the west side.

[morito12345678]

and yet people think 4 door jk;s suck they are great

[odwaud]

if you like wheeling a school bus... 4 door jks have all the disadvantages of trucks with the long wheel base and all the disadvantages of the jeep with the small engine. if you wheel something that big you might as well have a powerful engine...

[morito12345678]

its not big I have one now and outwheel all tj's

[c4ifford]

Unlimited's aren't that bad man.. and they don't weight much more

[evilwhitey98]

Um... for most wheeling it's more about gearing than pure power. The school bus's do really well for a factory vehicle.

[realtreeaphd]

how do u miss the seat in the bathroom like that LOL! 10:00

[acquarenza]

great  video...great johnny cash...great social distortion.......w la jeep.

[managebi]

watch ur old vids,and wait for ur new vids,is becoming part of my life

[k5gsxr]

great video!!!

[MVI2580]

wow your vids are the shit i love em keep them commin an be safe an stay away from nasty bathrooms lol lol

[coplin69]

sweet video, u guys' jeeps, and these trails look awesome.

also, keep putting up the HD vids, they look really good

[baristaprodigy7]

Another incredible video from project-JK -OIIIO- Jeep a way of life

[PSUyj1995]

Also, is that an aussie in the silver one on s-curve?

[PSUyj1995]

Amazing video, I love my yj, but I wish I had 30k for a jk. Those things are amazing.

[carlaxer07]

Another great video

[Dwealdric]

HAHA, I'm glad you showed the John, cause I was disappointed in the suspense building all for nothing at first.

Oh, great wheelin' too ;) Keep the vids coming, you've made my next vehicle a jeep.

[bmxsucks1]

what is your tire pressure?

[wayalife]

we were running about 10psi

[bmxsucks1]

kk thanks

[realtreeaphd]

Another sweet video 5 stars i realy want to go wheeling with you guys someday

[tadavis12]

awesome video!! i wish i had trails like this close to my place. at least i dont know of any close to here. i live in central pa
