Default Rubicon Trail

Finally got a chance to use the jeep for what I built it for. Ran the Rubicon Trail over a course of 3 days with a group of friends that drive solid axle tacomas. The jeep held up great, only damage was caused by a rock that removed my passenger rear fender flare. The RE 4.5" lift performed awesome, only complaint was that with it full of gear it squatted down to about a 2" lift. It was an awesome trip, already counting down the days to do it again next year!

Sure is ugly, but it got the job done! He toasted his master cylinder and had to run the second half of the trail which is mostly downhill with no brakes.

I haven't been yet, but that looks like the Little Sluice which I thought was closed. It looks like he's sitting on a big rock that may have been put there to stop traffic through there?
