Whats mods do you have : What level your running

[XJpax]

I was just wondering what size tires/lift/lockers/skids everyone is running and what level they are gonna do?

Unless I manage to kill my XJ by then it'll be on 5" lift with 33s, 4.56:1 gears, front EZ 297x D30, rear spooled D44 (maybe with R discs and mico-locks f/r?)

Engine/tranny & t case skids + factory fuel tank skid. Mini-truck step/tow R bumper with 2 balls and a hole, no front bumper, tow hooks, a cooler full of Mello Yello and yogurts. I might bring a few tools and spares.

As for level...moderate to low-high . Maybe lead or tail a high-moderate group one day. With no winch, going up lower 2 is probably out...might go down it though LOL. I haven't done slickrock yet or schoolbus hill...and want to. Did guardrail 2x in the MJ, I need to do it in the XJ to get to schoolbus hill. I wonder how the "little" gatekeeper ledge right below the rail is...last time I looked at it (day after we ran it) it looked ugly & fatal (that's why best not to look down while in the Jeep up thar LOL) I'd like to drive mine home from there again, but up upper 2 looks fun if it isn't a waterfall.

My two most recent experiences up there (7-02, 11-02) have been in the XJ open-diff on 33"/4"-+, rainy and sloppy with a 242 that was more 2 than 42 LOL so I beat the shiz out of it in 2x low and we went down upper 2 to 6 to 4 and 5 a couple times. That route is a good moderate trail strech though.

On a clear day, the views up there from all the trails are pretty great!

this recent cherokee has gotten alot further along than the last one; RR 6", spooled dana 44, arb'ed 30 in frnt, 4.56 gears, lots o' trimmin w/ bushwackers, 35" SSRs, all the necessary skids, and all kinds of other doodads. I hope to be in tellico for the crawl (lets do the fun stuff!!!!).....................slickrock is a blast

 

[Fore Wheeler]

I'm wanting to run the extreme stuff, I really NEED to make guard rail and helicopter w/o breaking.

36's (maybe 38.5's by then), locked front, spool rear, winch, lotsa body damage already.

[MrShoeBoy]

I will TRY to run any trail. Weather the Jeep makes it is another question, Thats what spare parts and a winch is for right?

I will probally end up sticking in the moderate trails and maybe trying some hard stuff depending if its wet or dry. Whats the worse that can happen? I get stuck.
