Приєднався 16 бер 2018
Heartland Rogue is about sharing the adventures and experiences we take on. We are all about finding new life experiences and meeting new people. Our Jeep Wrangler has been a great way to start this adventure. Follow us to see the new trails we find weather it be ORV parks or the Jeep Badge of Honor trails that we try to complete.
While the jeep may always play some role; this adventure is not 100% about off roading and jeeping. This is about whatever we can find in the great heartland of American!
Our hope is that we will inspire you to start your own adventure and start sharing that experience. If you enjoy the videos, let us know! If you see us out at a trail; stop and chat!

Cheap Jeep Wrangler JK Stubby Bumper Replacement
Our third time on the trail at Kansas rocks recreation park proved that we were starting to push our limits. Push was an overstatement but for us we were pushing. This time out we got some rub rash and some dents that needed to be fixed. We scrapped a nice tree along the Jeep Wrangler and we tried to move a tree with the front bumper and the tree won. I like to tell my wife we got into a fender bender!
We are not sure where the dent came from or at what point but we noticed in the afternoon that the pretty jeep jk was starting to get some badge marks.
Our plan is to change out the stock bumper for a steel bumper soon and we really like the poison spyder bruiser but right now is not the best time. However later in the evening; siting around the camp fire on of our club members mentioned that he had just cut off the ends of his stock bumper and put on stubby caps from Vertically Driven Products for about $60. We thought this was a great idea!! It gave us more clearance now and made it look better.
Once home we ordered these from amazon and they got here the next day! Love amazon shipping!
VDP 31550 Stubby Bumper End Cap

Putting on the stubby bumpers is not hard with the correct tools. It is required to have a reciprocating saw or you could do this by hand, but it would be quite difficult.
Cutting through the steel is the hardest part on the original bumper but once that is done, everything else is just a few drill holes and putting in place holders. It’s all simple!
Once complete the new look is much better. Also, we have been wheeling now twice with the stubby bumper and it has proven to be a better setup. Turns are a bit easier we rarely ever hit the front bumpers on any rocks. Also, just gives us a lot better angles to approach from now.
Rugged Ridge also makes these but found these to be about the same!

Epic Disney Oklahoma Rock Crawling Trip & A Jeep JK FLOP
Переглядів 10 тис.6 років тому
Hey Jeep Nation! We had been planning this trip to Disney Oklahoma for about a month and were so excited when the day finally came. We woke up at 4:30 AM to get on the road so that we could meet the group by 9:00. We were glad to be leaving KC too because it did nothing but rain the whole day. Once we got to Disney Oklahoma it was sunny and 92 degrees. We could not have asked for better weather...
Custom Mek Magnet Jeep Wrangler JK Install & Review
Переглядів 8256 років тому
When installing the MekMagnet system, the most important part is that the jeep is completely clean and wiped down. I use a wet cloth to ensure any dust is off and then go back with a dry towel. Also I clean the backsides of the magnets to insure there is no dust on them as well. This step is very important for them to stick well but it is also important to make sure they do not scratch the pain...
AR-15's and Jeep Wrangler. My heaven - FDE M4

After a long day of celebration mothers day; we decided to get out and have something fun to do to end the day. I spent the whole night smoking pulled pork and now it was time to let off some steam. Our #1 love before buying the Jeep was shooting our rifles but now that has taken a back seat to the Jeep. So we needed to get out and shoot again. Both these AR-15's are not budget builds. We spent...

eVo MFG ProTek Skid System - Jeep Wrangler Install
Переглядів 4,1 тис.6 років тому
eVo MFG ProTek Skid System - amzn.to/2KPfWSo A Good skid system is really important if you are going to do any mild to serious wheeling. The Jeep Wrangler JK’s all come with skid plates. They are designed to be taken off road. However, Jeep didn’t give you the best of skid systems if you really want to do some rock krawling. So looking around we found that the eVo MFG Protek Skid System is affo...

Our club Midwest Krawlers has now over 200 members and one of the things I love about it is how much we all want to give back. On this trip about 30 of us went down to meet up and help clean up the section that Midwest Krawlers sponsors. After we all got there we checked in and lined up to head out and start our clean up. Our section was not too bad because we already spend a lot of time keepin...

Hey let us know who you think is the craziest!! After an awesome weekend sometimes the best videos are unedited raw footage.

Hitting the trails again in our JK and doing some rock krawling with these guys is so much fun. Let us know what you think and what groups you go out with in the comments! This was the second run of the day and got really fun. We hit a lot of mud and water on the trail here. We even hit some deep mud pits that a few of the guys with snorkels could attempt. Jims Rock Krawler is a beast and he dr...

Watch a new Jeep JL move a boulder and some awesome built Jeep rigs tackle off road Kansas Rocks Recreational Park (KRRP). What area do you think is the hardest at Kansas Rocks? We could not wait to get back out on the Jeep trails for some rock krawling after only being out last time for an hour and then waiting a couple weeks for the weather to get good again. The forecast was 80% rain all day...

Our first time out to Kansas Rocks Recreation Park! We are so blessed to be only an hour away form such a great park and blessed to have such a great group of people to go out with. This was a fun trip because the first couple hours it snowed on us. We got some cool shots and it added a little more of a challenge. This trip we hit the new section of Kansas Rocks which led is to the Creek bed tr...
Completely hidden CB Radio - Cobra 75 WX ST
Переглядів 5 тис.6 років тому
After my first jeep club meeting one of the biggest recommendations and almost even a requirement is to have a CB radio. It does not have to be hard wired into the jeep but having one is highly recommended when going out on the trails. When out on the trails most of the time we are in very remote areas and cell service does not work at all, it is also very easy to get turned around and lost if ...

This is our first time taking the Jeep Wrangler JK off road. We had no idea what to expect and we had no idea what the Saharacon could do. We had 3 groups. Beginners; Intermediate and experts.

Donde puedo conseguir los tapas para el jeep
Could you have installed that transmission skid without removing that factory cross bar or would it have been in the way? Reason I ask is because I have LOD sliders on my jeep and that factory bar that sits under the transmission is bolted between the frame and the tabs of the sliders. I can't use EVO's exhaust loop crossmember skid because of my sliders. I just have the oil pan and transmission skid. The oil pan skid is installed but I have been putting off that transmission skid for a bit now.
Thanks for the details - Good to know about those 2 tough to reach bolts on top.
Damn!!! Looks like you can get lost in there i want to go!!
Long term update? How did they hold up?
Volume??
Glad everyone was ok. Great for pre-planning to have lights underneath to make the recovery much easier. Jealous of the lack of rust under that jeep honestly.
Heading down to Disney from Kc July 4 weekend
Just so you know, You can also trim the fender flares to get even more clearance on that jeep, Cheers 🍻
Just moved to Oklahoma from the northwest, glad to see there's my Kinda trails out here lol
Great video !! I need to get back out there !!
Loved seeing yj, tj, jk and jl all in one video. I still love the old yj square headlights. Can always tell the jl sounds like a jet plane with those stupid fans
Ha, well you can tell by our Channel Names where we are from, so Subbed automatically based off the Great channel name. We have not made it to Disney yet but plan too. Looks like fun place to go, Thanks for sharing and I hope you have a blessed weekend. Dale
Hey Robert! What size bolt is the hardest bolts to loosen? It doesn’t say on the installation guide. Help me out?
Love this place .✌️
Me and my family live nearby to there and we love to go there
Great video. Hard to hear though even with volume turned max.
Buy some power tools. This is painful to watch.
Nah, what would’ve been funny was seeing that silver jk Rubicon try that same climb that the equally equipped JL Rubicon did. For some reason that wasn’t shown as even attempted. Btw, what brand and size tires are on that Rubicon JL? They look stock size and no beefier than the BF Goodrich stock mud tires it’s sold with. Every time a JK owner makes a JL comparison video, they never put their JK up against the JL with the same trim, lift height, tire size, etc... But you know Jeep owners, the last Jeep you bought, no matter what model or year, is the best Jeep ever made. The Jeep community is great but you rarely find an owner that is open minded to the newer models. It’s just the way it is.
That JL was pretty much stock - i think it had a 2inch bump lift at the time. They were stock sized Mickies. This wasnt a comparison Video; We love our JK and I love the JL and new Gladiator. The JL owner is a good friend of mine and was just showing off what a pretty much stock JL could do. Thanks for the comment and appreciate you watching!
what about the gas tank?
Thank you for the comment - This system does not cover the gas tank and it has taken a major beating. You can add a piece for the gas tank and I highly recommend it. The gas tank sits below everything else so we have fallen down on a few rocks that have beat it up pretty good.
Just ordered mine from Amazon today... Think we have similar jeeps. I have a white 17 Unlimited Sahara. Prob redo the bumper applique to flat black as well.. Thanks for posting the video.
i have gone up waterfall in my RZR XP1000 4 seater.
Nice footage!.. i see sports and Saharas can do off-roading really good.
I know I'm deaf in my right ear,,, but damn!
Nice work with the edit!
I may really have to do this... looking nice. I also like how some people have taken that silver trim off the front and back bumpers. I think I would like how it looks with no silver on my Black jeep but not 100% sure yet
Thanks Bubbzzz! Most steel bumpers are solid black - bet it would look a lot like that.
Yeah I'm eventually planning on getting one but like you, just not the best time money wise lol
Cool area .. subscribed .. please subscribe to my channel .. we are in Australia
How do they hold on the HW? Let’s say 75mph
They do great - I have driven maybe 10 time on the Highway with them at 85, no problem.
Congrats on the video, looks great, just the last part was really hard to watch.
Nice! Subbed!
thanks legendary! I thought I had subscribed to you a long time ago.
Looks like a whole lotta fun! Well, except for that last part. Glad everyone was ok. You could tell he was understandably shaken up.
It was a blast! I would have been freaking out; he played it off way better than I would have.
Very cool. I remember your first trip wheeling! I had no idea you were going to take your adventures to this level!
thanks man! Yea neither did we lol
Love it, Thinking about getting me some!
Hell yeah man....looking good! 👍
Thanks again man!

Great video 👍🏻 Can’t wait for the trails to open up here 😬 🤙🏻
Thanks! Yes we are excited; so excited we still went out when it was snowing :-)
Can't hear ya
Great video of the day! How about adding a soundtrack list too? Like to get a few of these songs, lol.
Great idea - I should have added that! Here they are in order: 1. Dreamers - Sweet Disaster 2. Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness - Cecilia and the Satellite (this actually played on our XM radio on the trail during the same part as it plays in the video) 3. Blue October - I Hope you're happy
