I head out to they Owyhee Mountains in Idaho and Oregon to test my new Metalcloak Gamechanger suspension and new Nitto Trail Grapplers on my Jeep Wrangler 392. Along with me on this trip is my best buddy Chris whose testing out his Metalcloak suspension on his Jeep Wrangler JKU as well, and our great friend Lance, who's testing out his brand new Ford Bronco Raptor. We take a easy to moderate rock crawling trail to flex out our rigs, practice spotting, and increase our skills to get ready for harder trails this year.

So refreshing to see a Bronco Raptor actually wheel. And Lost Trail is always a good one. It's a great trail for beginner rock crawlers

@Venture2Roam 6 месяцев назад

Thank you! More of that BRaptor wheeling soon. Lost Trail was a great warm up. Moab vids coming next, then we’ll get out to some tougher trails in the Owyhees.

Will and team, I watched lots of videos from lots of RU-vidrs, and you guys seem to cover the Overlanding, but now the basic rock crawling we all do. Nice to finally see some common sense and reality in these videos that help all of us get better. Watching that loud, clicking noise and you guys figure out what it was is a gift that we all should pay attention to. After watching, you guys find that noise, I have to find that exact same noise myself. Great cinematography great video and I love my V2R Patch. Have a great week and look forward to the next one.

You're going to love those Nitto's! You're probably going to get more adventurous than you have in the past, but don't forget who all is with you on your longer trips. Chris needs a set of Nitto's now, so you're not recovering him all the time!

@laloolhouvum1634 6 месяцев назад

The JKU may be the oldest model, but it's still very much capable like the 392 and the Bronco raptor. It's the driver not the rig which makes it look like it is obsolete.

@Venture2Roam 6 месяцев назад

I love this comment. So true. Chris is a great driver BTW…but those JKUs are still very capable..just not as fast 😂

@bobcooper1055 6 месяцев назад

Good morning.. Great vid.. creaking and popping noises.. a friend works a tire suspension shop in the SoCal high desert.. they have done 100's of suspension upgrades plus normal brake and shock work.. this is what learned from them.. On all through bolts etc.. they use Permatex brake lube.. stops the noises from bolt bind.. I added a good PTFE spray lube to everything else.. I use WD40 one because of the spray nozzle.. my jeep, 1998 XY.. Thanks again for a great vid..

Good Morning. Like everyone else has said, great video, camera use is awesome. Rubicon is super close to where I live, been a few times, I have never done the trail. My Tundra would not have it. But your jeeps will have a blast ( drivers will enjoy it as well). There is a little kiosk in old town called "The Enchanted Forest". They have the best little pasties when you feel like eating. Can not wait to see the new adventures....Cheers..

@stephenlewis8143 6 месяцев назад

Enjoyed the video, and the one posted by Brad in the San Rafael Swell, Behind the Reef Road - I've been on that route many times; (you were on that trip). You mention new Nitto Ridge Grappler MT for your vehicle. I had the same on a 4 Dr. Rubicon for 5 years. Last fall after a long trip, I was told I needed new shocks & along with that they put on new tires, Toyo Open Country MT. (My friend owns 3 Big O Tire shops & advises me.) Toyo, Falken, Yokohama, Cooper, NItto, BF Goodrich, Milestar....I've seen all these brands (highly rated & promoted) spoken of & used by many that have you tube sites or post on other sites. And I've seen the discussions re MT, the step down from that & AT tires. I had a 2 dr. Rubicon (a while back) & the Nitto MT's were used & then taken off & Goodyear Wrangler Dura Trac put on. It climbed & did rock just fine and was smooth on dirt & highway. Myself I've found no difference between the Toyo and NItto. (Will, you need not respond to this; good luck in your travel & be safe, always).

@Venture2Roam 6 месяцев назад

My Behind the Reef vid is coming out soon. Really appreciate this comment. The best way to know tires is to run a bunch of different ones to see what you like best. Wish you could test drive them.

Great video how about doing a video on all your upgrades and why you choose the upgrades versus other options to those upgrades. Or do you already have that video . I always hit the thumbs up button that way I don’t miss anything but I’m finding that some of the same videos will show as not watched and the thumbs up is taken down. So I will start to rewatch it again and definitely remember what is going on in the video. Probably RU-vid taking the thumbs up off or something is going on. It’s not just your channel I see it on all the channels that I subscribe to . I definitely don’t mind rewatching a video it’s just something that I’m seeing more of lately. Definitely can’t wait to see your next videos. Cheers!!!

@PrestonGladd 6 месяцев назад

I am debating on which lift to put on my 2021 White 392, I have the XR package but like you want to run a larger tire to simply make the trails a breeze. I have seen a lot of hype on this metal cloak suspension but have never really heard of them until recently. Did you get your suspension kit for free? Or did you research and choose this kit based on its merits and track record? I am considering everything from a TeraFlex kit to an AEV kit, but am keeping my options open. It’s hard to trust influencers on social media today, especially when it comes to new companies making these suspension kits and all the corners I see being cut.

@Venture2Roam 6 месяцев назад

I think AEV, Teraflex, and MetalCloak all make great suspensions. I’ve run all three. MetalCloak is a channel sponsor, but I chose them because they are made in the US and high quality. Brad made a great vid comparing suspensions that’s worth a watch too.

@denism3711 6 месяцев назад

How about KO2 39x13.5x17? They are 79lbs. which makes them 11lbs. lighter than your current 38 Nittos, you get bigger tire with less weight and A/T should last you longer than M/T.

@Venture2Roam 6 месяцев назад

KO2s are great tires, they come stock on the 392XR and I put about 5K off-road miles on them. Right now I’m liking the Nitto Trail Grapplers and the MT treads for how I’m using the 392..but I wouldn’t steer anyone away from KO2s.
