You guys ever go out on a Sunday? Work Saturday nights, but would love to test out my stock JKU on some of the lighter things.

If not, I'd be interested in coming if I had a bit more notice to get my shift covered.

This is just what I've been looking for. (I have stock suspension) I'd be interested in a run the next time you guys go out if you don't mind another rig.

No problem, the trails themselves are quite mild but there are obstacles that can be quite difficult. All obstacles have go-arounds so they are all up to the driver, try what you are comfortable with.

Have some new pics from yesterday, will post up in a bit.

The white YJ was able to hit 54deg of tilt in that hole but the dirt was holding him up and keeping the jeep from rolling. Usually about 40deg and most rigs will roll. He later went through this same section about 2ft to the right and ended up rolling due to not being held up by the dirt embankment. Zero damage though as the dirt is very soft and there really wasn't very far to fall. You can see a vid of it under user mikesadass on ytube.
