    That's usually a good start. It's hard to overcome that fear of what the hell will I break next though. lol

    Side note: @JLee ’s BAMF skids and sliders got a workout. They’re the only reason the rest of the truck made it out ok even on 33” AT tires and a sagging front end (need to upgrade to 700# springs ASAP)

    Some really cool shit

    Thats a better title than what it was. It was inaccurate. I never bitched about not camping, only that when the thread was made no one was TALKING about camping. Only BS'ing. But fuck yeah, Rob and I ran the Rubicon from start to finish. With a lot of help from my buddy Joshua.
