Default Rubicon Micro Crawler-First run...snowy run

It's chilly in Colorado,

Danally, My humble apologies..(ran over the jeep in video)....I've seen Jeeps do things most others can not, with the correct driver


Check this out......MRC Rubicon body in muddy, messy, snow...

I love seeing a cool Jeep on that type of terrain...and the snow! I don't get any of that here Is that good or bad ???? Middle of the winter here I can go out back and crawl and still wear shorts and flip flops

Have you considered lowering the body down? It looks a bit top heavy. I am doing my CJ as a droop suspension. It really helps to bring the rig down and keep the tires planted.

Yea like danally said , lower will help that best crawl. I currently got the same model, i bought it when i seen the mickeys. I built a trailer & put the wheels from it on the trailer.

A good way to lower the body on that chassis is run tubing between where your shocks bolt up. You can then mount body on those.

Thanks all. It took a while to get the body mounted square.....also it hits upon flexing if it is any lower....but if i go nice and slow, it usually can go over anything...almost I like including the rolls...just cuz. Possible blooper vid on the way?
We will be crawling this saturday again...think we only missed two weekends this summer
