Off Roading Stock Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe at Hot Springs ORV 

It does really well. I think using crawl control will stop the jumping. Other than that the skids got a workout!

It was a little nerve racking for sure! This mavic air 2s makes it easier. My old phantom 3 didn’t dodge the trees like this one 🤣

@@stingray4xe142 I still got my old original Mavic, but boy has tree avoidance improved in the newer models. Can't wait to see you new videos!

Dont hold your breathe

Things have changed in the past year. Dealerships in the OKC area have dozens of 4xe's on the lot, both Sahara and Rubicon models.

I think MY22 will be much of the same since the 4xe was released later in the MY21. Maybe color changes and possibly the recon rubicon package.

@@stingray4xe142 I agree, don't anticipate any changes unless trivial stuff. Would you do it again? I am a little apprehensive, I'm really a diesel guy. But with all the insane epa stuff attached these days, looking fir other option.

Usually 4L sway bar disco. Seemed to work the best.

Thank you

Thanks

It’s weird. Hearing the birds chirp and wind blowing. Normally you can’t hear the drone over the engine of my other jeeps. This one you can definitely hear it.

I did not, I am planning on going back out soon. I will be using it. I’ll make a video of the difference it makes.

Yes majority of the time I was in 4low with the sway bar disco. Lockers were on a need basis.

Thank you! I have asked about the issue. Apparently it’s by design due to the dual clutch. It was suggested to use the “crawl control” function and let the computer do its thing. I’m going back to the Offroad park around July 4th and plan on doing a crawl control video. I hope it fixes the issue. Made me lose my line a few times.

@@stingray4xe142 Man, that’s concerning. I don’t love “cruise control“ when I’m off roading. It looks like you were able to smooth it out a little bit as the day went on - Please keep us posted.

Subbed for the follow up on this issue!

@@stingray4xe142 Any update? Thank you!

I went out yesterday. I’ll get a video uploaded this week as work allows. I will say that the crawl control works. But still not a fan. It will still bounce at a rock face instead of allowing the tires to stay spinning. My drone was a victim of a tree, so I doubt I have much footage☹️

a crawl button if u want to call it.

it was slow crawl up went right up hill after pushing button no climb 4by e w/out it

I plan on using it next time. Hopefully see the difference!

Not yet. I hear after and MC are making some. The factory skid plates can take a beating

Yeah as long as you meet the requirements of the park. Been going there for years and I don’t think I’ve ever been asked for registration

@@stingray4xe142 sweet! Thank you. This will be my first time on a trail. I've been mud riding and stuff given that I grew up in the south. But never been real serious off roading before.

HSORV is a good mix of skill. That was my first real offroad experience back in 2006. With limited experience and a stock rubicon I’d recommend sticking to 3s and below. Rubicon ridge is the most challenging “Jeep Badge of Honor” trails. They are all possible in a stock Jeep though. Have fun!

I’m in the US. They are pretty easy to find here. Most people have to order currently with the chip shortage.

@@stingray4xe142 that 4th of July video Jeep put out that teased a full electric Wrangler said the 4xe were all sold for ‘21.

That’s squid jaunt. Right by rock garden. These JLs have a lot of buttons 🤣

I definitely missed that trail during our Christmas trip there. It is exactly the kind of trail I like.

285/70/17 and they are ATs. I don’t think you can get the 4xe rubicon with MTs in the US. Weird that you guys get it.

@@stingray4xe142 Here they deliver it with 255/75R17 M/T and we have to go to the aftermarket for 285 AT´s and additional rims as 285´s are not allowed on the standard rims here.

yes that would be right. I hope that helps have a great day

All stock minus the winch.

So far no. On not off-road. We went to CO and had no problems even with the summits out there

The max regen does really help. I normally have it on anytime the Jeep is driving, Offroad or on.

@@stingray4xe142 I have one on order. Please let us know if you encounter any problems.

The only issue I have had is a loose fuse and loose ball joints. First things I’d do on delivery is seat all of the fuses in the fuse box, check fuel cap, and if the front end creaks get the BJs retorqued.

@@stingray4xe142 Loose fuses and ball joints seem to be a theme with the Wrangler.

@@stingray4xe142 2nd person who mention the fuses being loose. Thanks

The TC is disabled in 4lo. Crawl control makes it a little better but it still will do this. I have gotten used to it at this point 🤣

Haha why?
