been a couple years since i've checked in here.
but i'm still around.
sold a bunch of my rigs.
but still have my staled yj build and a mild build 2016 jkur.
My 95 on 4.10 gears and 5 speed with 35's still cruised at 70.
It was slow getting there but it did it.
And I only used 5th down hill.
Yours sounds like the motor is lacking power. More than the usual 2.5 lack of power.
Do a compression test, check for a partially plugged cat, or a flat cam...
Ya it sucks. But we are the group that are easier to move.
And if we had been getting the permits every year they couldn't have changed weekends. So some of it is our groups fault.
I think if we stayed on the right side of Long meadow it can work.
Do our gathering where the canopy was at a few years ago.
Seems all the bikes where staging to the left side.
