That jeep went up stuff that was pretty much completely vertical haha. I was I had taken more vids. And mine is fine haha. I don't live in salt

 

I need 4x4 haha. Too many times I got stuck that 4x4 would have got me out of

 

Ohh, true, you're lucky for no salt

 

Mine doesnt have a hint of rust on it Taylors has rust around the shock spot

Yeah if you move the intake that frees up so much room for you to be able to mount anything really

 

yeah man that jeep looked pretty sweet! Does it flex good too? Do you have any videos or are they in your thread?

hahah thats why you do the 4x4 conversion

 

Vids to come, waiting for the parental unit to get off her computer. Yeah, once I got stuck in some of that nasty clay and couldn't move. Jeep had to get me. The second time was in the canal. I kept bottoming out on my hitch, and my tires couldn't reach the ground haha. Lift would help that, I got out fine after they pulled me foward a little. Oh and that jeep flexed awesome haha

 

I wish I had taken vids of the jeep climbing the cliffs, but I don't. Just one vid of the trail really

 

That red Cherokee looks like it would rub if you flex it some haha'
And thats a pretty sick picture of your truck!

 

Alright cool! So you just hit some stuff no stock truck could go through in the canal? The hitch might be the reason you still have a rear bumper though haha Clay just sucks to drive in no matter what car you have really its just so damn sticky

 

oh well there is always next time! haha Did you only have those few problems out on the trials?

 

Today I had to run to my work quick and on my way out I saw two of my friends and we started talking about trucks or whatever and my truck was running and we noticed I had an exhaust leak so he told me to go to his house. So I thought it was just because my exhaust wasn't bolted on at the moment (long story) so when I was cutting my glasspack off my entire exhaust from where the cat starts fell off. So we took everything off and I was gonna run it like that until I got some more pipe...until I took it down the road. My truck was so loud, in just the short drive I took it down the street people were already getting pissed. So we ended up grinding everything down and welding the glasspack back on. We left the cat off though, so my truck is louder and sounds so much better! Plus, my o2 sensor was before the cat, so my engine light won't come on. I took a snap chat video of how my truck sounded with no exhaust but it was crappy but maybe I'll post it in a bit

 

That's really it. I did good for a 2wd I think. I went up this crazy ravine and flexed madly and bottomed out bad haha. Got all the way up and got stuck in the clay. My tires cleared great, cause it's all over my truck haha. It just dug and dug

 

I ran no exhaust for a while its loud as fack! Hahah but I had to weld a straight pipe on cause the cat was missing I miss that sound it was so much more tough sounding. Did you solve the exhaust leak during all of that hahah

 

That's pretty good for a 2wd most get stuck like crazy. You do have a nice aggressive set of tires too. How bad was the bottom out!? Haha I may have been in a truck that was airborne once...my dad was driving and no it wasn't mine

 

I hit my LCA I believe. And used my running boards as sliders at one point haha. It slid across the ground

 

You have bump stops though right? And atleast it isn't your rocker panels haha

 

yeah, i got bump stops

 

So its not all that bad then.

 

Sam did you get that video up? Haha I'm curious to see how different mine and yours sounded

 

I'll put it on YouTube now
