Dave I did 90% of Wilson in 2wd. Its a really nice trail with lots of climbs and some cool hills to flex on. Next time I go, Ill do Tunica reguardless if I have lockers or not.

Here are the lift pics... looks kind of gacked with the small tires... putting on the 35's today.





Big thanks to MKJeep for the hook-up on the lift/tires and the use of his garage/tools.
Looks awesome! Man, that's up there! Maybe you should think about 37's!
Wilson trail was fun and a good beginner course although if it is wet some of the tight turns could get pretty interesting. If it doesn't rain a lot, I'd go to Tunica.

Sorry, did not mean to hijack this thread.

MKJeep: I owe you a 12 pack, but then I'll probably drink half of it, so I'd better make it a case.


Here are pics of the 35's mounted.





It's like a jungle-gym climbing in, and I nearly sprained my ankle getting out. Next I'm going to toss some spacers on there to get the stance right.

I'll pick up that other 35 this week for your spare. Looks good man. Maybe you won't scrape as much now.

Sign up for Tunica it is very cool with your rubi you should have no probs

You can make it with no lockers but you gotta push it pretty hard.

P.s. Nice looking rig man!

Mark and Ben were in a stock 4 door Rubi and they didn't have any problems with the Tunica trail. Highly recommended.

Cajun posted some videos from yesterday on YouTube... check them out!
