Some guys on here are much more experienced than me. I'm curious to see what they say.
Dont do this. Always have jeep in gear when descending. Brakes may not be enough to keep u from picking up speed and getting out of control plus locking tires up can be very bad descendig causing you to start to go sideways and roll.
