Default finally some trails close by!

I found some trails behind my parent's new property that just needed a little trimming to fit a jeep through. Not very challenging, but fun to take the kids for a little light wheelin. A few shots of my lightly modded Sahara and my buddy's bone stock Sahara. Even easy trails remind me how much the stock 3.21 gears suck!

definately not worth a drive that far, what you see in the pictures is pretty much it. one small hill up, turn around and one hill back down. My 2 and 8 year olds think its fun when we visit the grandparents, but that's about the extent of it.

I didn't read your whole post, PM me about the bumper and I can try to give you some details if you need them.

I like the bumper too. If you felt so inclined, I'm sure a lot of people would love to know how you pulled that off. Looks more like what I want than the bigger heavy duty metal bumpers.

I actually got the idea from others on this forum, do a search and there are several good threads on it. If you decide to try it and have questions i'll be glad to give you more details on what I did, in fact I think it was on this forum that I posted some pictures and a few tips on what I did. If you can't find it or have other questions let me know.

It's alright - I remember the thread. Thanks. I'm sure I can do this without any help. But I'll be sure to let you know if I run into a bind.
