Cool stuff! You really need a locker though, if you are going to do big rocks, a locker is needed.

That was sensational, both pics & vid.

I take it your a professional phototographer ? Or just a real enthusiast with good bloody talent ? Great composition, colour & focus on your stills. Your boxer looks right at home on those mountains, as do the Jeeps!! lol!! He seems really well behaved for a boxer pup !! :)

You know what would have been more impressive ? If you removed your front swaybar ;) Makes the stills & vids look better :D!!

Nice one.....

Stu

It's true, GG is bladed mostly, but it'll be gated off in a couple of weeks anyway. The Nugget Hill road will be the only ingress and egress on the mountian now.

Thanks again! My wife was actually the photographer for most shots, and yes, she's a trained pro. The boxer has been a great pet, and an amazing mountain companion, although he DID manage to turn on the water faucet in the back yard yesterday and flood the place while I was at work!! :lol: We actually had the swaybar off all day on this trip, but I guess none of the pics really captured it at the right moment. :shrug:

Really? I didnt notice! opps. Do you have really stiff front springs? or a spacer lift for that matter ?

The front of my KJ flexs' as quick & smooth as a disconnected TJ, but just not the travel :( !!

You wifes' a bloody great shot :wink: !

Yep, you nailed it. Stock springs, spacer lift, extended bumpstops. If any money gets thrown at the KJ, it'll be to convert to SFA.
