I'll see if we can get a Window's Media file up for ya.

For those PC users who aren't opposed to it, you can get Quicktime for free at Quicktime.com and you can choose the player only (no iTunes) to avoid the additional "crap".

 

Cool video. Looks like the Sahara needed a little more "motivation" to get over some of the rocks. How do you feel the BLD did. I know it's not a locker, but I'm in the same situation and wondering if locking it is worth the cost.

 

Cool video but torture when watching at work and the Jeep is at home.

 

The BLD is great-- you can see it kicking in that shot from behind my Jeep (where I slide off the rock ). Without it, I know I would have had a harder time getting over stuff. Honestly, I think the biggest advantage the Rubi has is the 4:1 low-range gearing. It's a bit harder to get slow, controlled movement with the Sahara/X's low-range. I'll probably add a locker someday, but the BLD helps enough where it doesn't seem essential yet. Maybe WOL has some more thoughts on this.

 

Thanks doojer. We now have the video available in Windows Media. Click on the link below:

 

Yup, it works surprisingly well but as doojer said, what would really make a difference is a t-case with 4:1 gearing like the Rubicon has as opposed to the 2.72:1 that the Sahara and X come with. Fortunately, all JK's come with NV241's and I think it'll just be a matter of time before someone comes out with a 4:1 swap kit

Of course, there really is no substitute to Lockers but I think you find that you can do quite a bit without them too

 

doojer - great job!

WOL - MORE! MORE! MORE!

 

WOL - were you locked for those rocks?

 

WoW! Guy's & ((Girl's if there)),....just a fantastic Vid & very well put together. If there was enough Vid's here on Jk-Forum I wouldn't even watch TV anymore.
Just a great Job well Done, way to go Sahara, definitely showed your stuff, you to Eddie, but your a given..

 

I was sad before that I mussed that run not once but TWICE. Now that I've seent he video i'm just even sadder!!!
