Make sure you bring a car trailer and a means for holding the wheel on for your off-road adventures :lol3:

D35 + 37" tires = hours of recovery on the trail and a trailer ride home! Don't do any remote trails.

Desert dog, you act as though I would wheel it on the trail like that. Lol. I'm hunting for the 8.8 rear for it now. it has an open D35 in it, which barely survives the street. The upside is, it's non c-clip so it's less likely to lose a wheel after it breaks. Until I get the 8.8 and gears, I'll just run the wife's jk on the trails, so I'm not stuck like chuck.

I know y'all wouldn't leave me behind, but i'd rather not leave the house knowing I'll be towed home. Lol

See if Henry will sell you the 8.8 out of his burned-up TJ. I think it has a Detroit in it and chromo shafts.

I'm on fire! Help me baby Jesus, help me Jewish god, help me oprah Winfrey. I'm on fire!

Wiring heated up and caught on fire under the hood on the yj. Minor damage, put it out with a camelback, but no smog today. Lol
