Nice pics and your ride is great

 

Brent, we must have been out there at the same time as you. We were wheeling with NAXJA (North American XJ Association). It is indeed a great place. I took some video too at http://www.j33per.com/blog/moab.html.

 

Finally got the Hells Gate video to post up.
Much scarier than even video can show!!

dude...i was starting to shake watching it. oh how i know what you felt. lol

i have not done hells revenge yet...that section scares the crap out of me! hahah

 

yikes,that was a little hairy!!!!!

 

So, tell us... what did you learn from that experience? Would you rather have an auto after that episode?

 

Jury is still out on that.....right that second the drive would have been much nicer if I had an auto but on some of the down hill portions where I shift into 4 low, 1st gear and let the 5.13's walk down the wall are priceless....

For rock crawling an auto is definately the way to go but I really like the conrtol of the 6 speed!!!

 

Couldn't you drop the auto in 1st and let it crawl down, too?

 

could but the ratios are not as low

 

Great pics. Really nice setup on the jeep what wheels are those?
