Project-JK Monache Meadows & Sherman Pass Jeep Trail Run 07

[jeepcreep84]

are any of u guys near La Verne California or San Dimas? I Would love to join u guys. 07 2 door jk Rubicon on 35s with 3.5 fulltraction lift

[wayalife]

@jeepcreep84 we are all over socal and you're more than welcome to join us

[mxtremecooler]

would i be able to do this trail with a 2011 jk sport 2 door on stock suspension and 33" falken rocky mountain ats?

[wayalife]

@mxtremecooler yup, you sure could

[Alexkido12]

@waylife ok thanks! ill do a coil conversion! and i need new leaf springs all together..........

[Alexkido12]

@waylife any suggustions for mod my jeep scrambler? like lift wise?

[wayalife]

@Alexkido12 if you can afford it, do a coil conversion. if you can't, make sure to lift your jeep with taller leaf springs and not with shackles.

[circa331]

what would you guys choose... the teraflex 2.5" lift with shocks OR the teraflex 3" lift with shocks. there are 2 of each kit, one with the teraflex shocks and one with bilstein shocks. im very new to this and do not know what the difference of each kit is?

[wayalife]

@circa331 what you need to know is that the 2.5" kit will give you about 3" of lift and the 3" kit will give you closer to 4". this matter if you have a 2-door as at this height, you will need to change out your rear drive shaft sooner than later. also, it matters if you have an auto as at this height, you will need to change out your front shaft as well as the factory one will make contact with your tranny. bilstein shocks are nicer than the TF shocks.

[circa331]

@wayalife ok, its a 4 door manual so the 2.5" or 3" would both work without having to do other modifications correct?

[wayalife]

@circa331 for the most part, yes. with the 3" kit, you will most likely feel the need to add a set of adjustable front lower control arms as they will help you to add some positive caster and that'll make your jeep handle better at highway speeds.

[circa331]

@wayalife ok thanks so much for the help, its really appreciated

[Alexkido12]

this video is just amazing!! i love the jeeps! :) i have a 1982 jeep scrambler! we just took it off-roading at trabuca creek... and its set for sherman pass road! the coral way! :) i heard SD Ca. has legit areas?



[adanac96]

what is the difference between the 3" pro comp and the 2.5 budget boost??? wat is a budget boost???

[wayalife]

@adanac96 a budget boost is just a set of coil spacers that get installed on top of your coils. these are cheap and easy to install - a great option if you're on a "budget". a 3" procomp lift will have taller replacement coils but, i'm no fan of procomp products - they are cheap for a reason.

Really liking the Project-JK videos. Could you turn down the music a bit, I'd like to hear the vehicles in action a bit more.

[TipsEZ]

Thanks guys for putting together so many "Project JK" videos, I use em like game film to prep for a new trail I've never ran.

[ChristianJames6759]

i've always wanted to do this.

[SweatyFunSeeker]

do you think its worth to get a hemi installed in to your jeep? you guys know any fun trails in the Mammoth area?

[wayalife]

@SweatyFunSeeker in my opinion, no, a hemi is not worth it especially being that there are so many problems people are having with them.

as far as trails go, there's wheeler ridge and laurel lakes - nothing hard but nice and fun

[SweatyFunSeeker]

@wayalife thanks a bunch =]

[blueduster74]

@wayalife where did you hear that? only problems people have are running the wrong oil in the MDS versions and driving stupid. worked for dodge since 01 and have seen one replaced under warranty. the rest were all from owners stupidity. even then only 4-5 in 7 years.

[blueduster74]

i agree that a hemi swap is entirely unnessecary though. nice videos.

[wayalife]

@blueduster74 you'll forgive me but, i didn't hear it from anywhere - i personally know several people that have put hemi's in their JK's and they have been having problems with them over heating. they have been working though it and have been getting things better but it has been a chore and they are far from what i would consider "stupid" people or drivers.

[blueduster74]

@wayalife your earlier response wasn't real clear. did not know you meant hemi's swapped into jeeps, just hemi's in general. the "stupid" people i mean are those with ram trucks towing WAY more than their truck was rated for, running power programmers and generally abusing the crap out of their trucks. did not call your friends stupid, your response was too general and seemed to be trashing a great engine. i know mopar built some that were at Moab last year.

[wayalife]

@blueduster74 it's all good and ya gotta know that i'm a big time HEMI fan and wish that the new jeeps came with them from the factory. as you've realized, i was referring to 5.7's and 6.1's that get swapped into JK's. and, as i mentioned, the problems my friends have been having are started to get worked out.

[giftedNmusic]

what came loose around 5:30 from the under carriage?

[wayalife]

@giftedNmusic EVAP canister

[lovedavdubs]

I'd like to know who the six mutants are that gave this video a thumbs down. Are you kidding me! Yet another PERFECT video from wayalife.

[SkooledINC]

wow just got back from monache the river is a little high but the road has got a lot of erosion so it was pretty fun

[MomentaryLapse86]

Great video! I am going there tomorrow to camp and 4x4 for 3 nights. Looks like some fun trails.

[acrazybassplayer]

there are some amazing trails in the sierrias on the california and the nevada side. Hard to find an unoccupied area on the weekends which is sad- go during the week. I spent my youth in the sierrias and remember building some of the fire rings 15 years ago and now they are still being used every weekend... cool stuff.

[SkooledINC]

@acrazybassplayer look up Monache Meadows almost nobody comes up and the view is amazing.

[frumpyman333]

kinda glad to see the average enthusiast enjoying the trails. no super rigs. kinda cool. love the vids. just wish we had your terrain out here in va.

"doesn't really matter what you drive, just enjoy the time spent wheelin it."

[cpierson22]

My thoughts exactly, only have a slight lift with 35s on my JK and I love to see the more street driven ones on the trails once in a while.

[acuqueen]

I've been there several times with my 2003 Pathfinder. The road is easier than it looks on this video, and Monache Meadows, if you go there as soon as the snow melts or late Fall before the snows start again are a really nice area to camp. Gets busy during the summer, though!

[brandon06wc]

awesome video!!! i love my jk!!!

[mpnnapjcgj]

i got a 96 cherokee and am lookin for new wheels so this helps, thanks.

[mpnnapjcgj]

what kind of wheels does the 2dr black rubicon have? views at 1:25 and 5:40

[wayalife]

crager soft 8's

[aurora911806]

hey guys may i just say that y'all keep me alive while im at work each weekend, i work the graveyard shift at a hospital here in town and i just sit here all night just watch you guys. however i do have a question, i see you guys drive stick, im abit new to wheeling and end up stalling out sometimes trying to go up hill or over rocks, how do i keep from stalling without burning up my clutch??

[wayalife]

LOL!! glad to hear it. regarding your question, there's nothing wrong in stalling your jeep and i would recommend it over burning out your clutch. what helps a lot is using your e-brake to help you out on tough climbs. crank it up, start accelerating/let off the clutch and as you feel it pull forward, slowly release your e-brake. that will give you a lot more control.

[CAjeep09]

these videos make me proud to own a jeep

[ElemntOfOne]

Makes me question if black my have been the wrong choice for me.

[SahRacer01]

did you think about offering this to jeep for comercial or something ? maybe you get a few $ . wonderful vid

[Czar5]

your videos are good dont get me wrong but they are all the same w/ minor trails

[dthomlyn]

[Sonnyjim27]

Angels and Airwaves - The Adventure.

[thfxr]

Like so much "new music" what you use has a downer feel, and what you are doing with the Jeeps is such an upper, it would be better just to here the Jeeps doing their thing....

[chili4x4]

@thfxr so turn off the audio and enjoy

[07RUBI]

I have a quick question. I have posted how I love your videos. but in watching them all I notice there is a little advertising for full traction lifts. do they sponsor some of you guys?

[ovesnavlocka]
