You will be fine Dave. 25 may be a little too much if for the un-lifted guys unless they are heavily armored. I did it with a stock suspension, but heard the rock rails grinding the whole way. You can print the map and trail ratings from Paragons web site.

Frank you will be fine. You’re a good driver. Keep your focus on the trail and what the Jeep is telling you. If you are not sure about something DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK!!! What type of lift are you going with? And when can we plan that lift party?

How was the ride guys?

It was deffinatly more hard core than me and frank where expecting but we got through it.I was very impressed with the way frank got his through some of those rock beds.I even had some trouble and I am lifted about 3-3.5 inch's.We really opened the eyes of alot of wrangler guy's how though the kj is not off road worthy and gained some respect but still won't get any waves.Hope to see more kj's there next time.I have some pics on my car domain site the here is the link http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2312633

We had a blast even with my buddy in his rubicon always showin off and getting into bad predicimints think thats right, was proud of the stock KJ he did verry well. Do have to say my XJ with the locker did good all day till i L.O.S.T 4 low range tward the end of the day! Sorry for endding the day early on you guys b/c i was havin fun!

YES!!! It WAS definatly hard core! I have to admit, I was a little nervous with the snow on the ground and my cheepo street tread not getting alonge very well, but they held up pretty nice. It was even more nerve racking when we made a wrong turn and ended up on trail 24.....A BLUE 1 TRAIL I might add. It took a while but with a bit of "nature rearangement" and a lot of good spotting, I made it through with the rest of the crew.

The rest of the pics I took are here...

I wouldnt say I came out compleatly unscathed, turns out I might have kanked a sensor or something. Truck wants to stall at idle when the AC compressor kicks in.

(one too many water crossings?)
All in all, I had a great time and will be on the phone with Rusty's too see about a lift in the next few weeks.

Lift party anyone?

moose_1978 · **Posted:** Sun Jan 21, 2007 8:24 pm

I don't know it is up to the rest of the guy's maybe raush creek.Would you be into going to raush creek one of these sundays and you could bring you crazy rubicon buddy?

xjking · **Posted:** Sun Jan 21, 2007 8:32 pm

Im up for that but I would need directions! Will ask him if he wants to go and let you know!

frank6772 · **Posted:** Sun Jan 21, 2007 8:46 pm

moose_1978 · **Posted:** Sun Jan 21, 2007 8:51 pm

Ok me and frank will show those tj boy's up again(lol)!As far as I am concerned I love all Jeep's and I wish that wrangler owners would not be so narrow mined about other jeep's because as you saw yesterday we can within reson keep up.But Let's see if Frank would want to wheel with us again and maybe a couple other's and we can go from there.If you go on raush creek's website you can get direction's from NJ.
