We Conquer The Rubicon Trail in our 2018 Jeep Wrangler JLU Rubicon - Part 1 

I have loved the slow build of the JL. There is nobody else testing it like you two. With Kevin's experience driving and Brittany's spotting, I have learned a lot about how to crawl through any obstacle. Sad to no longer be stock, but keep the adventures coming.

This video literally made my heart pound! Kevins instinctual driving with your impeccable spotting is just amazing to watch! You've found your calling!

It never ceases to amaze me what you can make the JLUR conquer! keep up the good work!

Simply awesome guys! Love watching how much fun you two have with that amazing Jeep. Looking forward to the rest of your adventures on the Rubicon.

That 25 year old 80 series holding its own pretty well👌

Love the video, first time I have seen this part of the Rubicon Trail. My JLU Rubicon arrived today now going in for mods.

You guys should download the Badge of Honor app. It is a program through Jeep that tracks your progress on all the major documented trails. Once you complete one they send you a badge to place on your jeep.

Holy Crap.!.! I was having kittens just watching it, I can't believe how calm Kevin was. Excellent Driving and Guiding.!,!

Awesome flex i still can't get over how slow the new jl can crawl with 38's and 4.10 stock gears

Love watching all your videos to put this new Rubicon through its true test

Very Cool video guys. You both share good driving and spotting skills!

I have been watching your videos for about 6 months. Great skills. Always a blast to watch! Thanks for taking us along!

Nothing like a weekend cruise through the Rubicon. I will miss it when I move to Kansas. Great Job. Awesome video.

The reason why I subscribed to this channel love the wheeling videos!! Keep it up guys 👍🏼

Watch this channel daily for a month now can't get enough

the first thing I do in the afternoon,is sit in front of my laptop,and go straight to your video's..it really is a very enjoyable afternoon seeing what's new with you two...you seem to just keep hitting the upgrades out of the park..the latest suspension/shocks,underbody armour,seems to be working out fantastic...so happy for you both.i think someday,you are going to have your own reality tv show...you deserve one....take care, jb from chico,ca

Awesome, that lift is bad ass! I love seeing what the JL can do.

Great vid! I find myself totally waiting for more vids from you two!!!!! Awesome Jeep awesome couple!!

Welcome to California! Great wheeling! And yes, having both springs and shocks developed together by a good R&D department is the way to go! Congrats on completing your first day on the Rubicon Trail. Apparently, 38's on a JKU approximate 35's on a 2 door. Your friend from Texas has no fear.

Life goal will be running the Rubicon trail. Very very far drive for me as I'm in Ontario, Canada lol. For now I'll enjoy watching you two. Keep up the awesome content!

That side of the Rubicon Trail looked scary !! I have seen many clips of that trail but never where y’all went ! Holly Cow it was scary and exciting can’t wait for the next 2 episode..... keep up the epic work y’all do Ciao y’all

Oh my god. My heart was in my mouth on a few of those sections of trail. I will never have the nerve you two have. Hats off. I will live vicariously thru you guys, as my Jeep will never have the opportunity to do what you do.

She is one hell of a spotter on them rocks and dirts. Great vid guys!

Maybe you’re right that Kevin has superior driver instincts but you are an excellent spotter. Together you make a great team. Love your videos. If you ever travel near NYC please let me know.

I love the sound of plastic jeep fender clips giving out. Crunch!

nice, im intrigued to try this one next time im up that way, looked nice and technical. you did some sweet driving Kevin, coaxed her on up. you have a great spotter!

Way to go guys! Looks awesome! Thinking that Metal Cloak lift will be my first purchase for my new to me 2014 JKU Willys! 😎🍁

Very informative and entertaining video. Good job guys!

Can't wait for 2nd part! Stay safe guys

love this channel. it truly shows what a rubicon is capable of. i also love the rubicon trail good luck getting other vehicles brands up it without massive amounts of upgrading

I’m only halfway through the video, but not only is Kevin a great driver you’re also a hell of a spotter Brittany. Seriously.

Wow you go back and watch and old video and see just how much our favorite stepchild changed

Great vid!! So much fun watching you out there enjoying the Jeep... mine spends too much time waiting in the garage to go play. Hurry up with the editing so we can watch more 😉😉😘

I watched the results of your trail ride before the install of your armour. Wow good thing you got them. Metal cloak is awesome .

Glad you to are enjoying the CON! It's a bucket list....but you have to be selective on when.... The JL looks good! Smiles all around!

you guys give me that feeling i get when i actually get stuck, a little state of panic -_- lol

Awesome video! Great trail, awesome rigs, and excellent driving and spotting! Looking forward to the next video!

Can't wait to see the next two videos! Excellent video! Keep the shiny side up!

YESSS! Love to see the 80 too. Although it hasn’t been done by many I would love to attempt the Rubicon in my 100 once she is fully built

Another great vid Britt and Kevin. Keep them coming.

Nice Place for Jeepers = Dante's Hell for casual peoples! Always crazy video, Thanks!

You guys are crazy but the videos are like must watch tv. Jeep should be paying you guys to test out their jeeps!

Your videos, and you both rock. I have learned so much from watching your videos and can't get enough of them. Keep up the great work you two

Nice start to a great trail.. love the alternate entrance

Anyone who thinks the Rubicon trail is easy should watch this, they have different trails some hard & some easy . I love the flex of the MC suspension. And too bad they stopped making solid axle Landcruisers they are beasts

8:53 nice save Kevin. Can’t wait for the rest

Kevin stays so calm!!! What a stud!! I would be shittin my pants on some of those rocks!!!

What a way to the trail! Super jelly and stoked to see the rest! Kevin had me sweating bullets when that front driver side came up the butt end dropped near that tree. Wish i was out there!

Love your Laugh and giggles, Britt.

That first scene was glorious . I grinned at her

Just did moab a couple weeks ago, still so many trails to do there. Think i will hit that again next year and then off to the Rubicon for 2020. Keep up the build/JL/Trail vids!!

Badass! Good driving, and great spotting skills. Sometime I'll have to take my JK out and tag along.

Video never does justice to how "tippy" obstacles get. I'm thoroughly impressed with that JL for what it is currently and how it handles. Seems to be well balanced in suspension and wheel base. 👌🏼👌🏼 bring that sucker out to Phoenix next spring. I'll be back from my deployment and can show y'all some good trails!

I seriosly enjoyed it! All those justifications payed off! Cant wait for part 2!!!!!

Always waiting for the next video. Excellent contain and wonderful jeep. You guys are awesome . Be safe

Ahh Brittany, there's nothing like the first time!! LoL, my "first time" was in a 1985 CJ7 from the Loon Lake side. Enjoy CA!

Great video guys!

Looks like the new lift is working good for you guys. I hope my gamechanger shows up next week in the brown truck.

Wow another great video ... you two are an amazing team ...

I'm impressed you guys are a true Jeepers now.wow I did that trail on 35 I felt every rock on that trail but 38 should be rolling over everything

Love how the fan just simply pulls the Jeep over rocks.

I wasn’t quite sure about you in your first videos - I thought you were just crazy 😜. But now after watching some more videos I have come to the conclusion 🙄 you are 😜 nuts 🥜 also 😂. I rolled my 1998 CJ rock crawling and ever sense my fractured neck I have to take it easier 🙁. I had my seatbelt on but my CJ was topless so I hit my head 😲 thus shoving it into my spine 🤮. Now with my 1962 Willy’s Wagon - with its newer Jeep drivetrain - lockers 4:88 gears - 6 speed auto trans - 40” tires I use a 4 point harness - it’s a pain in the arse but next time hitting my head will end it all. Suggestion the driver should wear one while someone is spotting - I was paralyzed for about 3 years and I was so fortunate that I not only lived but I recovered most of my bodily functions. Or at least wear a hard hat 🎩. Oh that fan helps drowned out the steel on rock sounds 👍👌Thank You so much, and sorry 😐 for my long comment...😏

I watch these videos, just totally amazed at what a lightly modified Jeep can do and the folks that walk the fine line of success and catastrophe. For years I thought Jeeps were junk, now I just watch thinking no way. I wonder if the Jeeps you see on road, do the owners have any idea what these machine are really capable of?

While you're out in California, you should check out Bald Mountain. Great trail runs too.

I must say Kevin is an excellent driver. Combined with an excellent spotter :)

Awesome job to the both of you. I like that y'all are willing to try it all. Keep up the outstanding work. I look forward to the next video. Can't wait til I can get my 2 door JL rubi up there.

Great job! Stop and camp at Buck Lake too. It's amazing to camp and wake up to the view of the lake. We have the same taste in wheels. Sheer off any of the bead lock bolts yet?

Wow.....just wow. Can’t wait to see the rest!

Nice driving , that thing is amazing!

That was a sweet run guys.😀👍👍 cant wait to see the next one

Can you make a video about your camping equipment and all your stuff you have in the back of your Jeep? And what are you eating on these trips? Love your videos!

How many others are constantly checking to see when Litebrite video is uploaded? I am addicted.

I just watched your King of the Hammers video. It's awesome going back to the early days and hearing Brittany spotting. She's come a long way. Your career path could have been much different with a rollover in your first 1/2 mile of the Rubicon lol

I'm happy for you two in all of the hardware upgrades installed. I'm in AWE of how your JL crawls up and over the high almost ventricle obstacles. NOW regarding your honest comment about James driving instincts, you need to learn to trust James spotting you AND you need to be in the driver's seat more often So that your driving and negotiating skills are improved. You two are a great team and as such get yourself into that driver's seat and improve your skills. Lifestyle to short to be a spectator ma'am

I clenched a couple times watching. Looks like fun!

Congrats on your excellent production of this latest adventure. Seriously, I enjoyed every moment. Very well documented, with excellent camera work / combined with some explanation as to what the heck was going on. I also appreciated your comments on the performance of your upgrades. I have nowhere near the off road opportunities or access to performance upgrades that you have so generously shared. But my experience with tires and suspension always seem to end up with a brutally stiff, uncomfortable ride. ie The shocks and tires should have included a kidney belt. So carry on with your videos and just maybe I will take the plunge back into 4WD. Cheers John from Canada. ps ..That fan noise is brutal too ! There has to be a better way than listening to that roar.

Nail biting moments. Awesome trail!

Would you get jealous if a confess that I love your Jeep? lol. Cheers from Costa Rica.

awesome guys. makes me want to come to the states and road trip through all these places. might have a large excess to pay on the rental bahahaha

You guys are great your jeep the envy of many of us .... it is a awesome machine but.... there is something missing that completes you guys... and that is.... where is jelly bean? She is lovely and part of the scene please don’t leave her out of your adventures she is adorable and makes your videos always a pleasure to watch

Can't wait for the next Video. Great Ride.

Amazing! I can’t wait to see more!!!

You guys should have more than just 19k subs you are meant for daily videos!!!

Awesome video keep up the great work. Keep ur shiny side up and ur dirty side down my friends lol

Great driving and spotting, love the videos

At 9:20...looks like Post pile. I follow the tree roots with driver and walk up. The steps on the passenger side are huge even on 40s. It's fun driving down that side too. Lol

Love the video keep up the great work you guys rock

Awesome first part can't wait for the others

It's a fun trip in the snow too.

I don't usually leave comments anywhere, but Brittany is a pretty bomb spotter.

I so wanna do that. Looks like fun

Not Bad at all !!! Love your JL

At 12:20, holy crap. That was sick!!

Killer spotting Brit!

Haha looks like you are going to slap Kevin when he starts talking @1:36 :) Love your videos

That evil dark place that says bump it. Lol 😂

You guys are awsome! That one spot was sooo sketchy i was at the edge of my seat when i seen the tires slideing... It made my butthole pucker a little bit lmao!.. You guys are awsome cant thank you both enough for the videos plz keep them coming... 😁😁

Would you guys have any interest in adopting a 43 year old man? Asking for a friend. Kidding. Awesome video as always! Can't wait for the next one. You two are the best thing on RU-vid. Have a great day and thanks!

Okay so I've been watching a few of your clips because I'm looking to get a JLU here hopefully soon. I currently own a 95 YJ that I built up on my own, but I want something newer and more comfortable plus A/C wouldn't hurt Lol. Anyway I have really enjoyed watching your clips you guys are so cool. Plus I love the fact that Brittney is so knowledgeable of this sport and really enjoys it! Must be that old saying... It's a jeep thing, and some wouldn't understand. ❤👍🤙😉

That first obstacle is called the Devil's Post pile. Wentworth springs route is the real entrance to the trail.
