Check out my JK gallery - http://my.project-jk.com/showgallery...r=3359&cat=500 - let me know if that works.

Most of those pics are green or blue trails at RC...

A stock JK can easily handle the green trails and they still have their fun and/or challenging parts for a stock vehicle, especially with newb driver. Run around on trail D, O, 101trail, 14, Js, etc. - they are fun, but like I said still a little challenge here or there for someone on their first time out. After the first time or two, they will become almost second nature, but then you can bump up to some of the blues like 23, etc. A stock JK can still do those, but even more challening spots, clanking and scraping, etc.

I've had my 4 dr. there and had no problem with the green trails. I was completely stock, and have the little 29" tires it came with. If he has the bigger 32" SRA's, he will be more than ok. I'd advise taking the plastic trim piece off under the front bumper if he doesn't wanna risk tearing it off.

I took a few vids when I was out on Sunday, we ran mostly greens and blues... the HD vids take forever for me to convert and upload to youtube so there is more coming, but you can check these two out for now. This is a green trail S, but probably the most difficult part of that trail... the rest of the trail is much easier. But this just illustrates that even the green trails have a few parts to flex out a stock or near stock Jeep. I have 1.75" lift front, .75" rear, and stock 32" muds and you can see its stretching pretty good to go through this run... My brother in the YJ has 4-4.5" lift and 33s.

If you check my youtube channel there are also some vids of trail 23 which is a blue trail, and would have more difficult sections, but still doable by stock JK. They aren't in HD b/c they were shot on my old camcorder - sorry!
