Question about wheeling in deep snow
I'm still new to snow wheeling and have a question about ground clearance.
Should I be concerned about, what I believe, are my rear lower shock connectors dragging on the snow? Also, how deep, is too deep for a stock JKU with Rubicon wheels? Sure that last question could be relative to driving experience and knowledge, but what's a good rule of thumb for calling it quits once the snow gets too deep? Frame dragging?
I plan on getting a 2" RC budget boost. Will I see those parts connected to the axel gain a bit of clearance as well, or just the body?
Thanks

The boost will not gain you axle clearance, only larger tires (or trimming/cutting/relocating) will do that. As far as the snow goes, be sure to stay aware of the density of the snow.
