you wanna know the best part? its your jeep , you made it YOURS dislike and hate all you want fellows. Get yourself a jeep and make your own. sure i disagree with some mods here, but thats why jeepers are awesome. each has his or her own. great video

@woodman9505 4 года назад

Yes you have to do what works for you.

@patrickbyr 5 лет назад

New Jeep owner (bought a ‘15 JKU Sahara this week). I’ve spent hours pouring over your videos. Such an amazing resource, wonderfully useful & interesting content and very high production value. I can’t get enough! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience!

@TrailRecon 5 лет назад

Congrats on the new Jeep and really great to hear the videos are helpful for you! Thank you!

It cracks me up when I see a thumbs down on your videos. Who are these people?!?! If the vid’s not for you then move on. Thanks for entertaining us Brad. Keep on truckin!

@problu9586 5 лет назад

Over the years, kept all my 4x4 vehicles stock, except for upgrading from incandescent to LED bulbs before LED lights became Jeep stock. Admit to being a little envious of super upgraded Jeeps, those upgraded capabilities are amazing. Congrats on creating your dream machine.

@TrailRecon 5 лет назад

Thank you! A stock Jeep is a very capable vehicle and you can have some amazing adventures without ever doing any modifications.

@alexbenford9511 6 лет назад

This is the first time I’ve ever heard any jeeper mention Georgia. I’m from Georgia and there are hardly any trails here. I only know of 5 decent trails in the whole state. But you are definitely right on the clay. All of the trails in Georgia are rocks,roots, and mud.

@doodoocow 5 лет назад

I'm from Ga (just south of Macon) and just bought a JKU Sahara. I can't find anything that isn't in North Ga.

@willb1132 3 года назад

@halxiii7538 5 лет назад

Brad, you honestly have on of my favorite jeep set ups i have come across. Thank you for making these videos and always being positive. your videos are inspiring, Makes me proud to own a wrangler.

@Gazziza29 6 лет назад

Your videos are very helpful and entertaining to watch. As a 4Runner owner this is one of my favorite channels. I think you bring an honest perspective which hasn't changed since day 1. I think there are too many other channels out there that are copycats, me too's, trying to capitalize on this "overland" fab that are pushing products, giveaways, and selling themselves out to sponsors. Aka a certain 4Runner owner that rambles on too much, constantly pushing and advertising products, and talks more about adventures than going on them. I never got that vibe from you. I can tell you do this channel because its a passion of yours. Keep up the good work Brad!!!

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Thank you! I'm glad you are enjoying the content here. There are a few other solid off-road channels out there putting out great content.... I find myself binge watching other channels all the time.

@johoffman3893 5 лет назад

You should reach out to Shane at Genesis Off-Road. We installed their dual battery system before our cross country overland trip (10,000+ miles) this past summer. It saved us when the primary battery would not start the Jeep in a fairly remote location. The system connected the two batteries together and we were back on the trail. If you overland at all, this type of system should be a must if your Jeep includes auxiliary lights, etc.

@davidgagne4373 6 лет назад

I have the same shocks, and when I sent them in for a rebuild, I had them re valved for my weight and a LSC adjuster added on the reservoir for the rears. This allowed me to control stiffness (body roll mostly) at slow speeds.

@heath8109 6 лет назад

@Slartibartfast70 6 лет назад

I like your mods, good video. Just want to say I put an Airaid cold intake and a throttle plate on my wrangler. No moving parts, nothing to fail. I combined that with the Magnaflow exhaust and it really woke the motor up. Not loud but, you can tell when you push the pedal on the right.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Great to hear your mods are working for you, it's just a personal preference for me.

@tonyvet2278 4 года назад

I just put on Rough Country V2 shocks, and they seem great so far. I looked at bilstein 5100's and fox monotubes. but RC seemed sturdy and about $500 for all 4.

@lawrencemoore2981 6 лет назад

Love love your videos. I have a ‘13 JK Rubicon with 35 MTs. (3” lift). I get my upgrade ideas from your videos! (Just got my HAM radio license b/c of your video about ham radios). I’m so totally with you on the muffler. Love something tucked away (like the flow master) but much quieter. Cant wait learn what you choose. Thanks!!

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Congrats on getting your HAM license! Really glad the videos have been helpful. Thank you!

@4everjeeper 6 лет назад

muffler on my next to do list on my 2012 rubicon, I also don't want a loud fast n furious type sound, been looking at the AFE Hi Tuck muffler they seem a little loud, videos r nice but id rather hear in person so I don't get a loud to me muffler

@Diego_de-la_Vega 6 лет назад

Hi Brad, Kevin from New Zealand really enjoying the content mix of jeep mods and trail vids. Very helpful , very useful and practical and the South West sure has some great outback trails.

@roberthart4160 6 лет назад

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

@henrycolestage7650 5 лет назад

Hey brother! I don't know if anybody mentioned it to you yet but...Fox makes adjustable external reservoirs for your shocks. I run them on my desert racer. It is really handy to be able to stiffen them up if I have a passenger/extra fuel, etc. or soften them for the sand at Glamis. Check with your Fox shock guy. ISC(PJ), out.

@TrailRecon 5 лет назад

I've been contemplating switching to an adjustable shock, maybe when the budget allows. Thanks!

@michaelkirkwood5393 6 лет назад

I have the same roof rack and you can put the accessory rails up there it will make your life so much easier! Just so you know!!

@terry1967ful 6 лет назад

I live in the north west.... "Washington state". I did the 3" lift with 33's MT. kinda wish I did just the leveling kit 3" was more than I thought It would be.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

I use to live in Washington... love it up there. Just slap some 35's on the Jeep, will fill in the wheel gap real nice!

@keithhodge395 6 лет назад

Falcon 3.4 shocks are great love them

@moabwheeling 6 лет назад

Great video Brad , cant wait for the interior video . I don't think our jeeps are ever done. I have had my TJ for four years and it get stuff added to it every year. Already have next years mods planned . I use Banks exhaust on my TJ and I' m very happy with it. Not loud at all , just a nice mellow tone . Take care my friend.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

They are never done! I've had a few recommendations about Banks... I'll have to give them a closer look. Thanks!

@johnq.customer8027 4 года назад

Had a Smittybilt winch. Nothing but problems from day one. And getting the guarantee honored was impossible. Never had any problems with my Warn products.

@donjernigan8119 6 лет назад

Your gonna be over 3k rpm running 75 on the highway with those 5.13 im on 37s with 4.88 and at 75 im right at about 2850-2900. Great video as always!

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

That's a debating I've been having with myself over and over... I'll be sure to share with you guys all the detail with the time come. Thanks!

@hamidnia7242 3 года назад

I was going to buy a jeep, but after I saw this video, I discouraged to do so. It seems we just buy a piece of land with four wheels (which they need to be changed too) and build a house over it!

@lettuceshred9107 3 года назад

@ravenbarsrepairs5594 5 лет назад

@TrailRecon Keep an eye on the base of that winch. Had a couple club members have major cracking or catastrophic failure of the winch base. Smittybilt replaced parts under warranty.

@markpate9656 6 лет назад

Brad, great informative video on your various upgrades, really gave me some ideas on a few potential changes to my Jeep. Really like the lights mounted on your rack, think I may do the same set-up on my Rhino Rack.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Thanks! I think once I raise the roof rack up I may tuck those lights underneath the rack a little.

@dennisc8664 6 лет назад

Great vid Brad, thanks! That spare tire rack actually came on mine from the dealer, very heavy duty.

@timweimar8768 6 лет назад

Thanks Brad!! You and Marco have definitely inspired and assisted me with some many modifications. Thanks for sharing the info, really appreciate it.

@user-ys1ki8sp8s 5 лет назад

@punknjl8722 6 лет назад

I love your channel, I bought the KC headlights on your recommendation and love them. You explain them perfectly. Do you ever take your top off? Is it hard to remove with that roof rack?

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Great to hear you are happy with the lights! I take the top off occasionally. It comes off with no issues, which is what I really like about this roof rack.

I'd love to see a sports cage. Like a color matched rock hard 4x4 sports cage. I've got a sports cage in my TJ and love it.

@TrailRecon 5 лет назад

I think sport cages are great, I'm just not sure I want the added weight, my Jeep is already on the heavy side.

@jacman619 6 лет назад

Excellent upgrades Brad. Especially that big brake one. Did mine about a year ago and felt an immediate improvement. Looking forward to your review of your upcoming 5.13 upgrade.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

I'm so happy with the big brake kit investment and glad I did it before the Colorado trip since they got a work out up there. Hopefully 5:13's in the coming months. Thank you!

@Rooterofvalue 4 года назад

Love the video Brad. What mounts did you use to get the KC pro 6'' onto the bruiser bumper? I have the same bumper and lights and would love to do the same setup. Thanks and keep the videos coming!!

@jmjhayes2043 5 лет назад

In one of your videos you said you were going to install sliders in the back (Actually you implied you had sliders that weren't installed). Did you buy the slider (If so, what did you buy)? or build one (If so, where did you go for instructions?) What were the needs?parameters you were looking for/wanted in your sliders? Also...do you have a power management system with all the extra gadgets you run? What is it and what do you recommend?Many thanks!

@fwschnaar3179 6 лет назад

Funny that when you Modify a Jeep over Stock... Some think you got more Money then you know what to do with it... Liking that Your trying to keep your Rig something that most Working Guys with an Allowance can do over time... I made a comment when You installed the Throttle Control, that I was running the Pedal Commander... I was very impressed with the Options in that you can add or take away Your Pedal Response with just a Push of a Button (ECO Mode is great for on the Trail, and the Sport Modes are Giddy Up!) And also if I missed a Comment... What happen to Your Wrap? 🤷‍♂️

@fwschnaar3179 6 лет назад

Hey Brad.. I have a Flowmaster Super HP2 that I installed... Nice Sound (Not too Loud) that Tucks way Up, and out of the way... Can send a Pic if you’d like? 😃

@csilv 6 лет назад

Great video! Hypothetical question... if you were to start all over again with a new Wrangler (say if you decide get a JL), would you start with a Rubicon again, or would you save a bit with a Sport and then build it up? Just curious.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Yes, I'd get a Rubi again. The Rubicon is the way to go in my opinion unless you have disposable cash and know you want dana 60's.

@jamesstanton8642 5 лет назад

Brad you should really try the bf Goodrich km3 mud terrain. I had the km2 on my 2012 and I loved them. So this time with my unlimited I went with a 3.5 aev lift with 35 inch km3 which I love. The km3 is quieter and more responsive than the km2 and bf Goodrich puts out a quality product. I also went with a 4.56 gear ratio in this one and it’s awesome! A perfect setup for me. But I would definitely check out the km3 because my Jeep is my daily driver as well and I love them.

@TrailRecon 5 лет назад

I've heard great things about the KM3's, but I've got plenty of miles left in these KO2's before I swap them out.

@jamesstanton8642 5 лет назад

TrailRecon absolutely I just figured I would give a suggestion for what you could look at or try out after those. I have heard great things about the ko2. A lot of people use them out here on the east coast so they must be great. Like I said bf Goodrich is such a great brand and they put out an amazing product!

@ayebee4703 6 лет назад

Question, how come no one ever talks about install prices. I'm looking at getting a Jeep and this is my biggest question what am looking to spend to install these parts. Great vid thanks for sharing!

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

I try to go the DIY route when possible. If you are going to have a shop do the install you can expect to pay $80-100 per hour on average.

@eesko2000 6 лет назад

Find a good small shop, pay him cash, and assist him, and learn to do it yourself, and what you will need to do to Adjust or Repair. Join a jeep group. Tons of help full ppl willing to assist also. ☺

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Thank you for the kind words! Going from 35's to 37's I think my mpg dropped almost a full mile per gallon. I get 15 mpg on a good day.

@shawnhudson7570 6 лет назад

After 15000 miles send your shocks in to fox for a rebuild and they can make them adjustable for an extra 110 per shock

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

I know fox has a great rebuild service, something I'll be looking into in the future.

I have a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Sport Unlimited / manual transmission. I just have KM 31s MUD TERRIANS ON THERE RIGHT NOW.. what tire size can I go up to with a sport wrangler and not have to change out the gears? I'm getting wheel spacers tomorrow 🤗. Just thought I would throw that out there lol. Very excited for that. I'm thinking a lift here pretty soon. I'm think 2.5 right now. With the 31s and wheel spacers, but yeah.. what tore size can you go up to without changing the gears ⚙ 🙄 just for now until I save the money for gears and such

I drive a lot on gravel and am afraid that bigger tires would stick out from the fenders and sling rocks. I know you drive on gravel some and was wondering if you've had any problems with this. By the way, your tags are expired. Thanks for another interesting vid.

@TrailRecon 6 лет назад

Yes, every once and a while I kick a rock up onto myself. A full sized fender would prevent that.

Wind noise is so minimal with this light bar. I had an older one that was awful, so I understand your reservation. The KC Pro6 make very, very little wind noise.. my tires are louder.

TrailRecon two questions. What made you decide on the Rhino Rack vs a Gobi? I'm leaning to the Gobi for myself as it's no drill. Warn vs Smitty. What does Warn have that may make you consider them over your Smitty winch in the future? Thanks Brad!

@johnromo1335 6 лет назад

I must be old School, but I go to the the motor FIRST!, then work back to the transmission, then drivetrain! I started out driving Offroad VW’s to learn how to drive a short wheelbase vehicle,then worked upped to a 4WD! If you know how to drive, then no matter what you have ,either 4WD or not, you know what your vehicle can do. I can’t wait for the responses on this comment!!!

@johnromo1335 5 лет назад

Vitamin B , So you would rather buy it, then build one yourself!

@johnromo1335 5 лет назад

Vitamin B ,apparently you are missing my opinion! I am old school, by building my drivetrain myself, I know what my engine & drivetrain is capable of doing and what it is not. The newer Jeep engines have only a 4.3 Liter V-6! By adding bigger tires ,& additional weight you are putting a strain on that tiny stock engine as well as the drivetrain!

@johnromo1335 5 лет назад

Vitamin B ,your true maturity is showing.Anyone can just add “Accessories “,ie., lights,lift kit,winch, etc. But in the end you still have a STOCK V-6 powering all that extra weight and yourself!

@johnromo1335 5 лет назад

Vitamin B ,it is still a stock V-6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What part of that equation,don’t you comprehend??? You can not add all this extra WEIGHT,ie, tires,lift,extra suspension,lights,etc................. And still expects he same PERFORMANCE!!! Do you want me to draw it on for you in CRAYON!!!

@johnromo1335 5 лет назад

Vitamin B , as I said before your true maturity is being shown in your response to my opinion. These little stock V-6’s can barely pull themselves,let alone the weight that people like you put In & on them. I would be curious about the GTVW of a STOCK late model Jeep........................... And judging by your lack of knowledge, you are between 28-39! I can probably guess, but I don’t believe you took Auto-Shop in High School ?!? You would rather buy it, then build it!!!
