Thanks! My thoughts exactly my friend! Highly recommend getting a dedicated rig and definitely no rooftop tent. I’m glad I got to test the capabilities of my overland setup but that was a one time thing.
Wow that wa frigging epic!!! Loved the long movie format!! Your videos just keep getting better!!! The scenery was absolutely gorgeous!!!!Thank you for sharing!! Can't wait for the next adventure!!!
Such fun. Not usual for us to get rain on the trail this time if year... and its happened twice this summer😮😮. At least no mosquitos and kept.it cool.😅
@@OverlandScout81 It definitely didn't suck! I'm watching during my lunch break while I drive this keyboard and chair. Thanks for the efforts and time invested to put these vids out for the rest of us to research and enjoy! Adventure on!
I’m an overlander and usually out exploring the backcountry. I never thought I would get into rock crawling like on the Rubicon but it was an incredible experience. Not going to lie, we took some damage but I would do it again for sure. The sense of accomplishment is palpable.
Ok, let’s address the white elephant in the room. Can a 2021 JLUR (the hood says “Rubicon”!) with a Mopar 2” lift and 315/70/17c tires do the Rubicon trail? How much damage will it have at the end? Will I be able to drive back home? #tongueincheek
Yes, it’s doable but you’ll likely need to winch a bit and you’ll definitely be scraping the underbelly. We did some of the harder sections but there are easier bypasses at a few spots. I broke a stock rear control arm in half and recommend upgrading your control arms before going as you’ll likely be scraping and bashing on them. One guy in our group was on 33” and he made it. He did need to winch a bit and got hung up a fair amount though. Go slow and steady and pick good lines and you should be ok. It’s an incredible experience and I say go for it!
@@brandonbaldwin6845 yep, he put them in just before the trip. I can’t get over how tough he was. Hoping I can wheel like that when I’m 70. Hope you have a blast on your trip!
