My wife and I took 4WD rigs off pavement about a dozen times a year in Utah from 1987 until we moved to Michigan in 2007--including about a dozen trips to the Moab area. We drove Elephant Hill, the entire length of the Lockhart Basin Road and more than a dozen other well-known roads in the Moab area. Almost every time I came to an obstacle and my wife said I could surmount it, I was able to do so. The very few times she said that and I failed to do so, I got out, she got into the drivers seat and did what I had failed to do. There are places a 4WD rig won't go but you can go more places if you have a really good driver with you.
When is the next wheelin trip get together in general?I just got a 94 XJ that was inspired by your channel,seriously!It was so addicting to me watching the videos that I literally bought an XJ to start my wheelin adventures.I would love to go on a ride with you guys and who knows,might lead into a great friendship from Cinti,Ohio?Let me know when so I can make sure we are ready to go!Thanks guys for the knowledge and entertainment.👍✌️
I'm not a very experienced off roader but it seems like trying to take it easy on the obstacle and failing, is a lot harder on the vehicle than going a little harder initially but making it over the obstacle the first time.
The scorpion was getting sleepy in the trip, like a black diamond skier going on greens all day to entertain the kids. I saw EricTheCarGuy mention BleepinJeep. Good job helping Eric save his Fairmont with the exclusive BleepinJeep Quick-Release fire extinguisher clamps!
My trouble shooting skills are mostly about noise. I know YT does not do justice to sound but what is making the noise coming out of the green XJ that has been evident in every trail video in this series. It almost sounds like rotating metal rubbing on something. Thanks for the videos.
The trip keeps getting better. Takes skill to navigate with open differentials. Kudos to Tim! Also digging Tyler's YJ getting it done with a 4 cylinder and stick. Child's play for the scorpion crawler. You guys make a person shout "God bless America".
Great videos guys, Really enjoy them all. Out of curiosity, how was Tyler able to get his yj to flex at all? I bought my first yj not long ago and the ride is terrible. Thank you for any suggestions and time.
Ok. So thanks to scrolling through previous messages I found the walk around video of his yj, very helpful! Thanks again for all the great videos and helpful info.
My only complaint about all of this was the Zombie Jeep was left out of all of the fun. Keep the videos coming! The budget builds and do-it-yourself videos have been a lifesaver for me over the years!
Looks can be deceiving.. i bet they are running lower psi than you think. different tires, different sidewalls, different width wheels mixed with different width tires, and different weight jeeps all play into what you think it maybe might could possibly look like. not all 12 psi tires look the same
Man that looks like a sweet place to wheel...maybe some day I'll make it down there...I'm from canada so we don't have many desserts around...but we do get to do alot of snow wheeling...
great videos on Utah week. There's a new drinking game, every time Tyler bottoms out his bumper on the rocks you have to drink! In all fairness Tyler has the lowest 4x4 and does very well crawling. keep up the good work and keep us updated on the projects!
I enjoy seeing any and all type jeeps wheeling together. We will wheel with jeeps from stock to jeeps on 35's. XJ's to JK's and we all have fun. Keep it up.
I watched this on Patreon and so glad everyone else gets to see it. Of course I am watching it again. Can’t wait to get my jeep mohab ready to one day go out with you guys. Thanks for showing another awesome video.
Tyler’s jeep is impressive.for the smaller tires and leaf springs it does real well..tims jeep was doing good for not having lockers. Matt your jeep is a beast!!!!!! That sandy stuff looked fun. We have lots of white sugar sand in my area that seems a lot like that stuff.
Nice crawling. The YJ got my attention . It did greatly but at a point the driver was becoming inpatient with the crawl and kept bumping the rear but it proved to be a resourceful 2 door of the rest.
Great driving Tim!!! Conquering those kind of obstacles with open diffs is not as easy as you made it look. Matt, the more I see the Scorpion Crawler the more I think it is evolving into one heck of a rock clawler! And last but not least, Tyler has proven with great driving skills that a mildly built vehicle can conquer Moab! Awesome Video!
Maybe the fan is tapping the shroud? Hope you figure it out. I'm kinda curious as to what the noise is on tims jeep also i was going to post a comment about it when I saw you already had.
@BleepinJeep Looks like a great trip! I love this series! Long time viewer. @Tyler, I wouldn't have thought your YJ with the 2.5l was so capable. Makes me want to build up my 92. I remember your walk around video a while back. Maybe you could do an updated one with lessons learned from your Moab trip? What you'd change, what were the right mods, what surprised you etc? Help me make some decisions on my YJ. I'd love to do a trip like this someday with the family.
Really enjoyable...the Scorpion Crawler ate it up, nice job on them all out there.👍👍 Got the feeling I was there enjoying right along with the excitement👌
off topic i know you ar all jeep fans and i ijoy all your vidioes ,but i liv in eroupe we dont have manny jeeps ,but du you have nissan patrol s ind the us or onely in sothe amerika ?
Far from the same, patrol has solid axles,and the y60 model 1987-1997 annd the y61 1997-2003 has coil springs front and rear ,the bigest problem is the engingens er to small mostlige a 2,8td l6 ,but the bilde is like a landcruser hjd80
