Lets go hit a new offroad park in my 392 Hemi Swapped JKU!!
In this video, its time to head out to MARS Offroad Park in Linn Texas with some friends from work. This is a fairly new offroad park, with a few cool different obstacle types. They have mud, a few rocks, water crossings, and some big hills!
The group consisted of my JKU, a completely stock 2020 JL sport, and two TJs!
This was my first real time taking my 6.4 Swapped JKU offroad to really test it out. It did amazing! I just need to get some more time behind the wheel with this added power so i can find the limits of the Jeep itself. The Hemi power is insane, and with the 8 speed trans, i found myself in 4high quite often.. 4 low is extremely low, and will be very handy in technical rock crawling situations.
After playing around for a while, the TJ went a little too deep in the water and Hydrolocked his 4.0...Luckily we were able to pull the spark plugs and get her back to life without any engine damage at all.
Overall it was a great trip, with some good friends!
Thanks for watching, ill see you guys next week with another video!

3wheel drive.. the beauty of locking hubs is they act as a fuse saving the locker, ring and pinion.. as a side note, I wish the Wrangler, JT, Power Wagon, &2500 Platforms all came with warn hubs, or at least as a factory option.. And ditch that stupid CAD . That would be an awesome Feature... because if you twisted a knuckle u-joint, just unlock the hubs , and drive home in 2wd high to fix it at home where all the beer is...

If you want to play in the water, you NEED a snorkel. He's very lucky. I blew a rod right through the oil pan of my '97 TJ in the Jersey Pine Barrens. I had the engine rebuilt only to have a corner of the the block let loose on the highway a year later. There must have been a hairline crack in the block from that rod collapsing. I had 2 buddies lose the motors on their Power Wagons at Rausch Creek this year. That is no fun. A snorkel is cheep insurance.

The first hill climb where you were bouncing the front end is probably where the hub busted. Bouncing is always a recipe for breaking stuff. I am realizing how lucky I am to only live 3 hours away from Moab
@gigasipke

My brother drove his Acura Integra into a flooded street and hydrolocked it. Once it was home I did this same procedure of pulling the plugs and turning over the engine. We also vacuumed out what we could using a straw. But put the plugs back in and it fired right up. He drove it for 50000 more miles before selling it, so as long as you don't put a hole in the side of your block it shouldn't hurt longevity.

Great video. Sometimes you just need a little space to go get your Jeep dirty. In some states it can be difficult to find a place close by. By the way, you should do a quick install/comparison video on the hubs. As far as I know there isn't a better option than the Warn 95060 on the market right now and some people still questions whether they are better than factory.

Would it be beneficial to have the different color lights or should I just stick to white?

ok, your jeep can definitely make that first hill. You need to carry more momentum. It sounds counter productive, but you have to carry enough speed that the momentum keeps the front end moving forward instead of lifting. There is a fine point where the suspension absorbs the bump, the vehicle keeps moving and the front end doesn't lift.

Question: We would always of course trailer our sandrails - can a Jeep trailer another Jeep successfully? What's it like towing with a Jeep? Just thinking about a backup plan if one of the Jeep's break and we need to get it home. Thank you!!

I'm looking through videos and haven't seen it mentioned yet, do you regret sticking with the rubicon tcase with the 392/8HP70 swap? I know in the initial install videos you mentioned the rubicon might have been too low, would you recommend getting a sport tcase instead?
@JKGearandGadgets
@JKGearandGadgets Год назад
I wouldn’t say I regret it, the strength is nice to have. But it’s geared super low. Technical crawling it’s awesome, but too low for average offroad speed so I usually wheel in 4 high now haha. Either way, my 5.38s don’t help. I think 4.88 or 5.13 would be a better fit. Depending on what kind of wheeling you like to do will help you decide on the tcase. If you want a super low low stick with the rubi. If you want low to feel like the stock rubi case, then swap to a sport case.
