Regrettably, we only had a few good still images (we only got Tex- sorry). The vid should be better.

Had a blast with you guys today. I'm glad that JD decided to give my winch a workout..... Twice..... But at least I got to use it on myself for something good for once too. That's my first non-highcentered self recovery. I can finally attack stuff that gets me just plain ol stuck... we'll have to see about that after D-60's and lockers. In my defense it was snowing and icey. And to whomever was pulling the cable.... it's the shinny lever on the right that say "Free Spool" and "Engadged".

But, seriously.. thanks for the help with that guys. I was going to give it one more try.. but that big Jeep swallowing hole was getting a little close.




See... It wasn't that steep!!!

















Clicking any of my pics will bring you to my "myspace page" I have video's uploading there now as well.

I think if you gave it a lot more skinny pedal you would have cleared that the second time. Ok... maybe not.

People ask me why 4" and 37's. That's why right there. And I still rubbed high center going over that.

yes... the leaves... but also the Ice/snow. Shale isn't great to climb either traction wise. It Just keeps breaking up in big chunks under the tires.

i like it. ill like it even better once i get all my connections filled with dielectric grease and extend all my breather tubes, then we'll really be able to use it
one of the other jeeps with us had the AEV snorkle which really didn't look to bad in person i must say.

yeah tex the two of me high centered was my excuse for 37s and more lift when i was thumbing through these with my dad lol some day

im feelin 37s, 6" long arm and coil overs

There is a guy selling a set of 5 35x12.50 16 Xterrians almost new on Jeep wheels(TJ not JK) for $650. If I didn't love my 37's so much I am tempted to snag them. Those will fit right under that Jeep of yours though.
