Default 4wheeling at the Badlands NOV 15

Went wheeling with some good friends at the Badlands on Sunday... sorry I didn't make Saturday with some of the other JK guys.

The Yellow Jeep is a TJ with 6" Rubicon Long arm, super charger, Dynatrac 60's, 38.5 super swampers and every possible upgrade you can imagine. He has 3000 miles on this jeep and has put probaby 50-75K into it. He wheels it hard too!

The white Cherokee has a D60/44 combo from a 79 F250 and has a detroit in the rear and is welded up front with a custom 8" leaf spring lift and 39.5" super swampers.

An you will all be happy to know my Jeep with little 37's went places no one else could go!!! Gotta love a JK!!!!

I posted a video and tons of stills here:

It was a great trip but I wheeled REALLY hard and broke 2 1350 ujoints on my rear driveshaft (must have came down on a rock!) and my HUGE front drag link bar (not sure how I did that!) Fixed the ujoints in minutes and kept wheeling... the steering bar broke at the end of the day so it was back on the trailer!!!
























Ok, there are way more photos on the website so make sure you click the first link above!!!

Thanks for the compliments... Video editing... I use alot of different stuff. Final Cut Express is a KIller simple program if you have an apple. The imovie stuff is pretty good too especially the newest version and the old version HD6! Skip the in between ones!

After effects gives you some sool stuff.

Microsoft Photostory is super easy to mix pictures to look like video and animoto is alot of fun too but costs money if you use it regularly.
