i decided one day to drive the rokee to moab for a night and some easy trails, on the way there i met up with three guys who were trailering there rigs, after a little bullshiting they instigated me to follow 'em on their trails "we'll just winch you if anything happens"
rigs-
2 loaded samurais welded diffs, tsl boggers, 4psi and the tires barely bulged, dang those samis are light
1 blazer front&rear ARBs, front&rear winches, 35" mud terrains, and 2, yes 2, transmissions, 32 gears calculated 1600 lb/ft torque from the 350 and gearing
and mine
99 xj, 3inch coils and leafs, 1.5 spacer and shackle, 33" baja claws, and open diffs.... thats it
started easy on fins and things
then hells revenge the xj did the smaller hot tub, and the escalator!!!
then for shits and giggles i felt powerful and followed them to the moab rim and sure enough the xj pulled strong and never had to try something twice
i am just frankly dumbfounded and left all the spectators in disbelief that my rig was driven down in 7 hours, and completed the moab rim, then drove all 7 hours back.
xj's are just amazing,
damage: only thing is i managed to ram my fan into my radiator punching a fist divet into the aluminium on hells revenge, 20 minutes and a pair of pliers, and i was ready for the moab rim
