Also a stock jeep just done up with outta the box parts is a good all around trail rig. That what I consider my jeep. There narrow n short enough to make it thru all the tight trails n if you got lockers and strong axles you can def do some good crawlin. I believe in drivin my jeep to a location 4wheelin the shit out of it then drivin her back home. My jeep is a solid rig n still registered and insured so I can drive her ne where i wana go. I like turnin heads while Im roarin down the MA pike!
Just read threw all the arguements here. 1st off it is awesome to finally see someone from MA with a whellin vid. I love it out there in the Berkshires!!, 2ndly, yes if your makin a rock-buggy you want full size axles danna 60 front n somethin like a 14 bolt main rear or if ur loaded go with rockwells. Ive tended to use a 14 bolt from a duelly cuz its a lil narrower in width n fits good under a jeepo. But yes you gotta strech ur rig a longer wheel base for crawlin give u more of a reach
Agree on the longer wheel base argument. My 4 Door Wrangler makes it up this ledge in one shot. Short wheelbase has more difficulty unless highly modded.
Thanks, The total lift at the time the video was made was 7.5 inches, Skyjacker's 4 inch Rock Ready Long Arm kit , JKS ACOS 2.25 inches and a JKS body lift of 1.25 inches. - total lift at the time of the video 7.5 inches. The tires were 13.5 x 37 Nitto Mud Grapplers .... I'm running IROK 13.5 x 39.5 now
i dont get why people think jeeps are so bad ass. i used to own a toyota hilux stock suspension with over sized tires. i sold it. then i bought a jeep wrangler TJ with a 4 inch lift and 33's and That jeep cant do hardly anything my old toyota used to be able to do. i don't get all the hype. the jeep is tough and can take a hard beating but My old toyota would have out performed it on the trails. i like my jeep but i miss My yota.
@americanmonster1 nope your wrong. the short wheel base of the jeep is a big disadvantage when it comes to rock crawling and articulation. it makes the roll over risk much much higher. the short wheel base is a good thing in trail but not in crawling. ask any real off roader they will tell you the same. jeeps have a place in the off road world but rock crawling isn't it.
@MrGizmo757 then why is that you jeep dominating the rock crawling world??? yes they do roll easy but they climb better and can flex a lot more than any vehicle. Jeep is off road, keep your toyota in the city
@americanmonster1 they dominate because they are the only light wight 4x4 vehicle that still employes live front and rear axles. duh! its cheaper to buy a rig that already has that equipment then to convert one. i promise you cost is the only reason. there are plenty of vehicles out there that can do better. just like the argument that the older short wheel base jeeps do better than the long wheel base jeeps. on trail yes. rock crawling no. long wheel base is much more stable than short.
@americanmonster1 yes but My main argument is the long wheel base jeeps or long wheel base 4x4 of any type. is better than a short wheel base vehicle when it comes to rock crawling or other similar situations. the longer wheel base is more stable and less likely to roll over. the standard short wheel base is good for trail ware you have to make lots of tight turns and maneuvers. and anybody that want to argue that point has not had the experience to know better.
Nice video, i have a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon stock with the only addition of a roof wrack and im very happy with it. :) Would love to have a hummer to!!!
Nice jeep man just sold my wrangler it had a 3 inch teraflex and 33' mtr's and it would go anywhere....i live in mass too you ever been to coys hill in ware MA?? nvr been out to old florida rd but rattlesnake gutter is pretty sick too
I have made it up this obstacle since this video was made. Airing down the tires was definitely a factor. This was my first Jeep build and one of the first times I'd had it out. Most of the trail is rocks on top of rocks on top of rocks !!!
nice jeep mate bit cheaper for you guys to build them ,,im in oz and its about double the cost on eveything here ....whys the front bar on such a forward angle ive have never seen that before
Thanks ! The front bar is called a "stinger", why I don't know. Its purpose is to help prevent front end roll overs while going down steep angles and to limit damage to the radiator in side roll overs. The stinger projects out 1 meter at 45 degrees and is reinforced now with 4cm D.O.M. tubing that is welded to the frame. I once had a stock Jeep, then I meet my good friend Dan from Australia - LOOK WHAT HE STARTED!!!! We've had a blast!!!
he might have been able to get it if he went back so the fornt wheels barly stayed on and then bumped it on up, maby second gear in 4 low? who knows, when it is slippery like that, a rock under the wheel is probably best
You are 100% right. I did get up the rock using 4low and 2nd gear, bump and jump ! It worked once. When I tried to do it again for the 3rd time - things went bad, very bad ! I've sent you a video that someone else recorded that shows what happened ! It was fun and it beat sitting home on the couch !
Dang you guys got a pretty sick jeep man. I got an 89 2-Door XJ. I like the barbie jeeps, but you gotta have the folding down back seats lol! Jeeps for life man! Fords suck... lol
wish my ford would crawl like that lol, that would take alot of skinny pedal to get my truck over that......maybe not but thats probly how i would do it :)
Something just doesn't look or sound right here. First you insult people and call them name. When they respond to your comments by pointing out the obvious, you continue to confirm the obvious facts by babbling on with your mouth. Here is what's obvious: 1.) The sky is blue 2.) You have posted 3 child like videos on youtube 3.) Your favorite video has fat guys in diapers showering together 4.) You live in an intellectually inferior country 5.) YOU SUCK FAT DICKS - That says it all !!!! -
No - no payments, you were close though. That was one of the first times it was out after a frame off 8 month build. I'm still building. The rule in my house is: I can't buy anything new until I break the old. Now, I'm trying to figure out the best way to get a new top!
