Dummheit pur hallo da liegt gerade mal 60cm schnee...

[Predwolf2]

Gooooo BC!

[SuperBooksmart]

you are bad off road driver, you should not stop there at all on such a road with that car, don't respect off road driver like that!!!!!

[CheesenCrackers69]

@SuperBooksmart What are you talking about

[SuperBooksmart]

@CheesenCrackers69 u probably don't drive a lot with your jeep on the snow off road. Your jeep is capable of driving much better through this road without stopping through that road. All it needs is experienced driver!!!!

[CheesenCrackers69]

@SuperBooksmart I know, but the point of thie video is to test out the grip of the tires. I drive in snow a lot. Thx for the comment tho.

@SuperBooksmart

I agree with you, I've seen good jeep drivers, and I've seen bad jeep drivers, this guy's jeep clearly is more of a mall crawler.

I drive a 1992 F-250HD, 7.3L IDI N/A stock height running Goodyear Wrangler Territories. Which are based on the mt/r, but designed for road use as well.

Living on the side of a mountain, with a HELL of a lot more snow than this guy "drove" on 3-4 feet on average, the tires perform well, it helps if the person behind the wheel does.

[claytony1234]

go with the Goodyear Wrangler daratracks the are an awsome tire

[DanoLXF]

@claytony1234 I agree , I put a set of 33's on my YJ and they absolutely tear ass in the snow.

[CheesenCrackers69]

I'm getting some of the new goodyear wrangler mtr's for my TJ so ill put up a video with my thoughts on them too, I hear they're great

[jackalope501]

I run 35" ProComp Mud Terrains on my 92 YJ and I don't have the side sliding problems most do. The alternating outer lugs provide a better cleat pattern on snow, at least in my experience. I know I was the only person moving arounnd in my neighborhood last Dec when the storms hit.

[OneLoneLegend]

your 4WD acts like mine, all 4 tires dont pull with the same rpm... its weird..should all be turning the same, why arent they?.. figure you might know

[CheesenCrackers69]

@OneLoneLegend Its because we dont have locking diffs...power is still sent to all wheels but the command trac system decides in what proportions. Locking diffs are a common upgrade.

[kenkeniffy]

i have a 91 yj and always found that a "good" set of stock tires always did better in snow alot less sliding on top of the surface,with wider tires or off road or style to much slip for me in ''winter'' - great vid and jeep

[Brannstroem]

Sweet YJ dude! It is truly a Jeep thing..

Tires however are bound to slide sideways, they are to wide for soft snow like that, need skinnier tires that cuts down. I'm ashamed to say I had a VW Jetta -89 this winter, but damn was she a snowplow! All thanks to my skinny tires.

[sidbarclay]

my mastercraft courser at also slide sidways easy

[NarsilsBane]

How do you feel about your YJ? I'm looking at a 92 with a 4 inch lift and 33" tires with a new motor with 40,000 miles on it for $3800. It's the 4.0L I6.

[CheesenCrackers69]

i much prefer my TJ. more comfy ride, better suspension, nicer interior. If you're using it for a daily driver i suggest a TJ. Don't get me wrong I still loved my YJ, just like TJ's more. and be prepared for terrible fuel consumption.

[jimlaredo87]

I would go for it man, I have an 87 YJ with a 4 inch and 31 AT's. It has the 4.2 inline 6 and i love it! Its the best thing i ever spent 3,000 on! IT had 120000 miles on it though, but thats nothin when you run mobile 1 through it for 25 years!

For 3,800 thats a steal!!!

[jimlaredo87]

I get about 13, 14 miles a gallon by the way, thats not driving it easy though :)

[letsparty666]

take it

[ftwneil69]

seems like a good deal, you'll only find a shitty 4 banger TJ for around that price and the yj will do anything a TJ can up until the really gnarly stuff, I've had two YJ's and one TJ, and my 92 YJ was the best vehicle I've ever had, I almost wish I didn't trade up

[timinator824]

love my yj thats not a bad deal

[SouljaBabyWayne]

@NarsilsBane

I've always loved Jeep Wranglers, especially YJs. I hope that one day I will be able to get one. I am frequent checking:

jeepforsale [dot] wordpress [dot] com

This site has a few Jeeps for sale on it.

[jaysayershuh]

where in bc is this? noticed the N haha i owe icbc 4000$ in points from when i had my mustang,nice jeep

[CheesenCrackers69]

LOL thats brutal. this is just a small forested area near Surrey we found.

[killerpollo14]

I had MT/R's in my cherokee and i loved them. they were outstanding in the desert. i ran over a few cactus and didnt get flat tires :)

[CheesenCrackers69]

yea they dont do too swell in snow :P

[fabianforfree]

looks nice but the wheels are tooooooo big for this track u need smaller ones^^

[Geepnut]

Prolly have open diffs. Don't think YJs came with LSDs. My 95 was open with 3.07 gears. Now run 4.10s with 33s and a Detrioit in the rear. It does pretty well. Nice Jeep by the way.

[olioli917]

these things don't have LSDs do they?

[CheesenCrackers69]

to be honest i dont know, the jeep command trac system has baffled me for a very long time. I dont think it has LSD's though. I plan on getting lockers

[mackalina2]

Got a little cozy with the tree, eh carl?

[CheesenCrackers69]

lol yes fortunately i didn't hit it, just the bush in front. So slippery
