Default First serious trip

Well I've been playing around since I've gotten my Jeep but this past Saturday was the first serious trip I've done. First off, I love these 35"KM2's. They left the other rigs behind (Including an XJ with front and rear lockers, running 33" BFG M/T), they clean real well, and grip awsome. This trip involved some trail running, slick hills, deep mud holes, and some muskeg. A TJ that I was running with even broke both upper control arms, the Jk didn't even hiccup! I have pics but can't seem to post them. Going again next Sat. Now I just wonder if I should clean up my Jeep or leave her till after the next trip

Glad you had good time. I've been considering the BFG KM2s for my next set of tires. We need pictures of your trip too!

With a manual tranny, I can manipulate the gears so I don't notice it as much on the trails. On the highway it's a different story, I find myself shifting gears at least twice as often as I would with 4:88's.
