Just got back from power washing the Jeep and this seems to be the biggest damage i got. There is a nice dent on the housing just to the left of the big scratch. Lots of rock rash on the skids and a slight bend on the cross member flange .

Is the Jeep with the rigid lightbar belongs to the forum member, TexasT. The other Jeep with the 5 lights on the light bar belongs to JKCobra, Jason.

It's the same Hummer, this time I was helping him. The rain, mud, and wrong or an interesting combination. You definitely can't do some of these trails with regular city tires. JkCobra had the Wrangler dura Trac tires and he was doing very well with them, his Jeep had no lockers.

Not too bad considering the trails we tackled. Still impressed with the capabilities of your Rubi.

Thank you sir ! Wait till i get my tires mounted and we will tackle more level 5 trails next time. I just wish we would have gotten a pic of Baby Back trail and Turkey Creek trail. Those trails were pretty slippery and steep, i guess that happens when we do more driving than talking.

Yep, put an aev 3.5 on since you last saw it, very very happy with it.

Lockers and gears will be done shortly after Xmas, but as Sapper said the duratracs did pretty good on their own. I am much more impressed with them than the km2s I had previously.
