I feel like these JKs out of the box are much more capable then the older models stock.

I'm running on street tires BTW.

P.S. be jealous of my Rescue Green

Nice video. Looks awkward with a bra on a jeep an loose that air dam under the front bumper. I was hoping to see it torn off on one of the hill climbs...lol. Go easy on the mud till you get some good tires, stockies dont clear mud for shit. Good Luck, nice rig

I've taken the bra off because it got all muddy and havent put it back on... but you don't like it?

The air dam improves fuel economy on the road. I drive 7 hours from home and college about once a month. I know I own a Wrangler, but if theres at least one thing on this Jeep that improves mpg, I will cherish it.

If you off road like that a few more times that air dam will take care if itself...lol. An as far as the bra, just looks strange on a jeep, not hating just wierd to me.

It came with the Jeep off the lot. At least its something to set me aside from the rest of the stock JKs on the street until I get something noteworthy. I hate looking like every other stock JK... a copy of a copy of a copy.

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Stock JK's do better than older stock Jeeps, for sure, but you'll be even more impressed with some MT's and some swaybar disco's!

I got a few things i wanna say. First off, im not digging this camera man's style. Second, that YJ is taking one hell of a beating, and third, im always amazed at how capable these JK's are, even in stock form

It looks like you didn't disconnect your front swat bar.
