Had a lot of fun with 4 rigs and 10 people running up to the mountains at the Kaena Point Forest Reservation. Attached is a picture of Demeeder and his wife driving her Jeep (they have a 3" lift with 35s to give you reference)....mine is behind it but will have to wait for everyone's picture collection so I can post up (my phone wasn't on me at the time).

We also had the following damage:

1. Stacman7 caught his right fender on something breaking 2 fender clips
2. Demeeder broke the passenger side mirror
3. My transfer case C-Clip broke!

Other than the minor damages it was a great time!

Awesome, in for more pictures!

Good pic but waiting to see more!

Just got some more to load up! The guy driving my Jeep is obviously not me....we were taking a Senior Member of my unit on a tour of the mountains since he is an outdoors guy and likes to off-road!

stacman7 flexing his Jeep! All of the Jeeps with the drivers rear tires that look like they are suspended in air are free-hanging!

Here is more of "Mrs." Demeeder's Jeep!

Thanks! There is a great video one of the guys did, but it's on Facebook and can't download it. Once I get it from the creator I will post up here but was a lot of fun.

I am still kicking myself that I have known FOR A LONG TIME about that little C-Clip on the t-case linkage and never bought extras....good thing I had zip ties with me!

Great pics, Tom. Looks like y'all had a good day.

 

[TXROCK]

sure did....everyone wants to make it at least a monthly run now!

Thanks for posting the pics, Tom!! Was a great day. Looking forward to the next run. And for the record, Demeeder's wife was driving Demeeder's wife's jeep . Demeeder needs to find a way to lose the Volvo and get his own rig.

Here is a link to the video:

Jeep Exchange...

Jealous!


I think we need a Jeep Exchange program! Kinda like student exchange...


You guys come run the Rubicon with our Jeeps and we come run Oahu with yours! Sounds good!


Nice pics...

Now I'm REALLY sad I didn't go. I would have had the only XICON there!! Haha. I'm already thinking of getting 33s when these tires are done. Hopefully before I do the RECON thing, that way I'll be set. I just need these to wear out faster.

Yeah, I left him out on accident trying to get everything posted....I met him briefly on our way through the trail.

Sounds like a plan!

Don't waste your money on 33s....go for the 35s!

Haha! 35s huh? I'll look into that. But doesn't that require a bunch of suspension nuggets added on? Those shock extensions etc? We have talked about a lot of stuff, so I want to make sure things aren't running together.

with what you have you would just need some wheel spacers (can be found on the for sale thread here for about $130 I think the last pair I saw). But once you put 35s on you are going to want to go to a 3"+ lift kit!

Here is stacman7's Jeep with his brand new 35s, 1.5" wheel spacers and a 2" Rubicon Express lift:
