Testing 2010 Rubicon Lockers.avi

Testing a stock Jeep Rubicon to check out the lockers function correctly in 4WD-Low. Hill is steeper than it looks... This is a very impressive vehicle. Traction control in 4WD-High keeps good traction and avoids wheel spin and is disabled in low.

Very impressive. That dirt is like talcom powder, and very difficult to go thru. Even if it were level (which is was not) most vehicals would stop. Nice.

@lawnchair11

2012 models will have the new pentastar engines with like 280 hp

BUT I STILL WANT A DAM DIESEL!

i had two jeeps transfer lever broke on 2011 the small clip made of plastic thats' all hold the cable linkage show i shifted out of 4 hi to 4 lo it broke in neutral, so i was stuck ...why would jeep build something like that POS , you 4 wheel your going to be shifting, only 10k miles on it

@alexrex20 MY JKU weighs in at 5200lbs with bumpers, inch and armor. Way more than a TJ ever weighed in at pretty sure. The 3.8L makes more HP and torque than the 4.0L. I do not drive slow at all, and I have never owned anything gay like a cobalt. The JK is definitly not a hot rod and the 2012 JK with the 3.6L is supposed to be amazing. Do you own a JK? Have you put over lots of miles on one??? Im happy with mine thats all I am saying. Some people arent happy with a 600hp Mustang.

[forknuts]

@mudog35 Nope but advance adapters has a beefy upgrade to prevent that.

[alexrex20]

@forknuts it's also a matter of opinion when YOU say the 4.0 would be a dog in a JK. don't lecture me on opinion vs. fact. if you have a JKU on 35s and don't think it's a dog on the highway in the mountains, then either you drive really slow or have never owned anything quicker than a Chevy Cobalt.

[forknuts]

@alexrex20 Thats a matter of opinion. I live in the mountains and have since I owned a JK. I have a K&N and a programmer. I have 0 complaints about the JK on and off road.

[alexrex20]

@forknuts be honest, your jeep on 35s with the 3.8 is a dog on the highway

[mudog35]

has you transfer lever ever broken ???

[turfwerks1]

@lawnchair11 Very true. My cousin had a 08 wrangler 2 door and I have a 98 with 4" lift and 35's. We lined them up at a light and raced each other. I blew his doors off! The best part is that his jeep was stock.

let the air out of your tires on sand

[alnebular]

@lawnchair11 Wrong! . A few years ago I would agree, but now, the new V-6 motors are developing some really impressive performance.

[alnebular]

@2grand4U You said "any ways the 3.6 on the way is alot smaller and puts 280Hp and 260HP with better mpg.."

And you are correct. I have a 2012 Wrangler w/the new Pentastar engine, and it is a definite improvement.

[2grand4U]

@lawnchair11 any ways the 3.6 on the way is alot smaller and puts 280Hp and 260HP with better mpg..

[lawnchair11]

@forknuts i never said anything about putting the 4.0 in a jk. im just comparing engines and saying that i would own a jeep with a straight six any day over a 3.8 v6.

[forknuts]

@lawnchair11 The I6 would be a dog in a JK. Its under powered for these heavier beasts. My JKU weighs in at 5200lbs with all the bumpers, winch and 35's. The 3.8L does a fine job on road and in 4 low its more than enough power to scare the crap out of anyone. 

[caboosez250]

Is that in canadian lakes mi?

[Fordfanforlife777]

No actually, as my username suggests I'm a Ford fan. I love any thing that gets beat on of the road though.

[lawnchair11]

@taypuc31 i dont care about numbers of horsepower....any inline 6 engine has more balls than a v6

[taypuc31]

@lawnchair11 Actually the current "mini van" engine has more torque and HP than the inline 6. 215hp vs 177.

[kferrell630]

@Fordfanforlife777 I take it your a die hard CJ fan?

[Fordfanforlife777]

@kferrell630 Yes, it was the first of the fake Jeeps, I think...

[kferrell630]

@Fordfanforlife777 So does a YJ

[l337pwnage]

now you just need CTIS. ;p

[Fordfanforlife777]

@lawnchair11 grand cherokee is not a real jeep. OlllllllO it has square headlights.

[lawnchair11]

@Fordfanforlife777 ok....you know everything then...and the new 2012 grand cherokee srt8 is designed to go over 60MPH, thats why it has a hemmi
