MOAB : Pilgrimage to the Promised Land (Part 6 of 6 - Behind the Rocks Jeep Trail)

Episode 6 of MOAB : Pilgrimage to the Promised Land is the last in the series and in it, we decide to go against our better judgment, throw caution to the wind and take on one of the most challenging trails in the Moab area -- Behind the Rocks. With over 20 Jeeps along for the run, this would be the biggest group we've had with us all week and you'll get to see us take on imposing obstacles such as Guardian Hill, High Dive and Upchuck. About halfway through the trail, our group will only be about half as big as many decide to play it safe and head back to town. For the ones who remained, you'll get to see them spin their tires to the top of Hummer Hill, have fun rolling down the Rollercoaster and conquer their fears as they take the plunge off of the intimidating, White Knuckle Hill. We hope that you'll enjoy this final installment of our 6 part video series and, we'll hope to see you in Moab!

More than just a trail, Moab is a destination. It's what many like to refer to as, "the promised land." It's a beautiful off-roading paradise, sculpted out of red rocks and with breathtaking views every which way you look. And, it's a place that most Jeepers hope to make a pilgrimage to at least once in their life. Originally completed as a single 1 hour film, MOAB : Pilgrimage to the Promised Land, has been broken down into a 6 part series and documents the week long pilgrimage we made with our friends to attend the Easter Jeep Safari back in 2010.

u act like the 2door was inferier ive seen all these vid and u have only strenghtend my argument that 4 door jeeps r the worst thing to ever happen to jeep u might as well have a faggot ass hummer u can jack up a tahoo but that dosnt make it any better ther 2 long heavy and cost is way 2 impractical dont care how much money i have i would NEVER own a 4 door wrangler its a jeep thing dont think yall no what the thing is.

@TalleyDallasTX none of the 4-doors are running 6" of lift and only a few are running long arms. yes, they are running 37's or 40's but, the burgandy 2-door is running long arms with 38's and lockers front and rear. the green 2-door is running 4" of lift, big 35" toyo's and lockers front and rear. i own both a 4-door and a 2-door JK and have wheeled a built up TJ for a long time - the 4-door is what i prefer.

@thelaxer1031 @jrrdking its wheelbase has little to do with this... both the four doors if you look have larger lifts and tires, one a 4-6" straight lift on 35's, the next silver has a 4-6" long arm hard to tell exactly, on 37's or bigger... watch my JK with a 6" long arm kit 37's and both lockers, ill walk right past the 4 doors... the 2 door if you look has a moderate maybe even budget lift of 2.5-3.5" just to clear the baby 33's she has...

@1996dudeo @jrrdking invalid argument, its wheelbase has little to do with this... both the four doors if you look have larger lifts and tires, one a 4-6" straight lift on 35's, the next silver has a 4-6" long arm hard to tell exactly, on 37's or bigger... watch my JK with a 6" long arm kit 37's and both lockers, ill walk right past the 4 doors... the 2 door if you look has a moderate maybe even budget lift of 2.5-3.5" just to clear the baby 33's she has...

@jrrdking 4 door is better didnt u watch the video the 2 door needed help going down some hills and it was harder for it to get up that slick hill also the 2 door has a smaller weel base that the 4 door therefore it makes it easer for it to roll over

[thelaxer1031]

@jrrdking The 4 doors arent superior to the 2 doors they just have some things that make off roading better. Such as the longer wheelbase and weight can give some better grip. But that comes with the sacrifice of maneuverability. Thats where the 2 doors are better. All it is is a matter of preference. I personally prefer the 4 door

Epic! Someday my JK will be ready for this... someday!
