Default RUBICON, But can it really?

OK, can an off the Jeep dealer lot Wrangler Rubicon do the Rubicon Trail.

I mean NO mods TJ or JK

I have a 2007 JK 2 Door Rubicon.

Would any of you expect a stock JK Rubicon to make it without damage and being stuck asking for help to get winched out of everything?

Any videos to see it?

I thought they actually took a 4 door through there. I doubt it got through with out any body damage but I think it made it. I don't think no body damage was a criteria.

You can make it but it probably wouldn't be pretty. The first time I did the Con was in a TJ with 4" lift and 32's. My skids definately took a beating.

Did you go the whole trail? How long did it take you? Any pics, I'd love to go someday.

I went from Loon lake to Rubicon Springs. I've done it 3 times. We did it over a 3 day period. You can actually run it in 1 day if you go with about 3-4 rig that are built.
