Default First trial run

Okay, I fianlly did a first trial run of my Jeep. In the past my off-road experience has always been with my stock Sahara TJ. Now I am running a 2010 JK Rubicon with a 4" suspension lift and 35" tires and a sway bar. Unfortunately today I had no spotter nor even another rig to help out so I stayed on the "bunny" trails. They are at andles of 35-60° hill angles. The soil i smostly sandy and there is some brush and branches and things. In fact, a rather large branch gave my vehicle its first damage. It is just a scrape on the fender, but it is damage! lolClick image for larger version

It is just a scrape on the fender, but it is damage!

It's not damage, it's a beauty mark... congratulations!
