Thanks Eddie and Cindy for preserving those great memories in such a cool video series! Part 3 is my favorite. I hope I can go again next year! And also MOAB...

For all those wondering about my Jeep and what happened - the lockers were on - I took my eyes off the road for 2 seconds to find the button to turn them off and that's when the mishap took place. I did not have PSC steering assist and could not turn the wheel into the fall to save myself. I have since had PSC steering assist installed and more practice. Thanks again to the great guys who winched her up and got me going again!!!

Excellent video series. The editting was fantastic and the trail looked awesome. I would love to make it out that way one day and do some trails.

That terrain is simply amazing, as is the landscape.

Wow the 3rd video seemed the hardest!
Was wild watching the wrench being welded to the axle.

All three were great, thanks for sharing your trip with us fellow JK owners

Awesome series as always! Hopefully someday I'll be able to run some of the gnarly stuff you guys do. Not all that much on the EC...

Default Lovin' it!

Video series is flipping awesome! Editing was top notch, too. That took a lot of work on and off the trail! Sure makes me want to turn my old TJ into a project vehicle. My JK is still too new and I'm sure the bank wouldn't appreciate the body damage on THEIR vehicle.

Great job on the video, guys!

Wink Some day!

I enjoyed every second of this 3 part video production! Thank you Way Of Life and Lifette I do plan on making it down to the Rubicon some day, however not some day soon unfortunately. My handle is Maritime because I'm from New Brunswick, however I live in Alberta now. So it's a little bit of a drive but one I can't waite to make!

thank you.
Hi Guys,

Don here (with the almost stock black JK) we eventually did join the forum. We really appreciated what you guys did for us on the trail, and absolutely wanted to be a part of this community. We had lots of people stop to watch us (expecting carnage) but not too many willing to help. We love the videos, the story stretched a little bit as time went on (as all good stories do), but it was definitely a memorable trip. I will be going back, but next time with about 3" or so more lift and on 35s.

Cheers all!

if it's something you can do, it's definitely something that needs to be done

it'd be a hell of a drive but, i think you'd find it worth it

Great job on the video, guys!
thank you and as far as your JK goes, i think you would find it to be way more capable of running the rubicon as is then would your TJ with a lot of help. trust me, i've owned a built up TJ and there really is no comparison.
