Was out playing on some of the local forest roads with another JK-Forum member today and got a chance to test out the articulation after the recent lift and new wheel/tires have been added.







Hunter (the rottweiler) was helping us spot

 

Looks good! After all these "x versus rubi" threads i'm curious to see if a similar X could get up there..

 

I have had my 2dr X up on a rock about the same size I will see if I can find the pic.

 

Sounds good, friend had a hard time with his x on the packed dirt out here. The two driven tires had zero traction to get up the rock.

 

LOL, Even the Rubi cannot drive "over" it.

 

With such a loose surface I'm afraid the only way up was with the axles locked (I had to engaged my lockers in order to successfully get up there)

 

Nice flex shots!

 

Nope... couldn't get up there. Even tried the hand brake, but no luck. just threw the loose dirt w/ the 3 wheels on the ground. Not that I couldn't get up there if I really wanted to... just didn't have time to wrap my winch line around the tree and pull myself up

I'm planning on swapping the front axle, re-gearing, and installing lockers when I get the $$$$
