Exploring Pennask area in BC (Okanagan Hwy 97C) - Jeep Off-Roading
The area around Pennask Lake is somewhere I've been meaning to go explore so today I spend the day trying to find neat places to visit. The main roads are actively maintained but it was a little annoying to see the decommissioned side roads have barriers in place to block access either right at the start for further down the road. The larger lakes seem pretty busy with people camping and most likely fishing too.

      The road to Pennask park does get pretty rough but there was quite a few people there, even with boat trailers. Probably just go a lot slower than I did haha. For navigation I was downloading a bunch of satellite maps into Gaia but they hiked their rates and I'm not renewing it this year. I usually look at the Google satellite view to find places to try driving on, but in today's case I mostly just did it completely randomly. I do usually carry a drone too but I don't mind just driving all the roads myself just to see if it'll go anywhere or not.

Trying to navigate through deep snow was never my plan but next winter I'll do some more snow runs and see what kind of conditions I can get through.

      No, I'm betting I would just get the runaround. I found other mentions online about the included gaskets being useless so I think the product is just overpriced for the quality.

    My 2004 Rubicon has been my daily driver for the last 20 years. I put an RE 4.5" short arm kit and 33" tires on it 18 years ago. I retired 14 years ago and moved to a mountain house in Oregon. I have been using studded winter tires for 2 winters and they have been excellent. This winter I started running a snow plow on the Jeep and it has done a great job. Now I want a more comfortable ride so I want to install a long arm kit and some PRP seats. This jeep has been very reliable and it still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it.

Other than that, hopefully just need to do normal maintenance this year.

They were super easy to do the basic maintenance on, pretty much a one could change the oil, brakes, etc. The 2005 was my favorite. That DOHC Reay gave that 4cyl some pep.

    So, my 2006 TJ Sport, Manual 6 speed... (Had it since new), has been extremely reliable...I've had brake calipers seize and had to replace a starter...that's it! (Oh...and I've had to replace the blower resister a few times, which is a very common part requiring replacement, every few years!) I do get a very occasional "Check Engine" light, which seems to be pointing to an O2 sensor on the exhaust...I've got a replacement sensor, sitting on a shelf, ready to be swapped in, when it's required... I've got about 130,000 km on my '06, and shifting, is still as smooth as butter...A lot of people are pretty rough on standard transmissions, and maybe your Jeep's previous owner was as well... With respect to 'Winter Driving', IMO winter tires are very important...Quebec is the only province that legally requires their installation, but they're a good idea, regardless of the amount of snow on the roads, because the rubber used is softer, making them more pliable than 'All-Seasons'... I've been driving a Jeep since 1986, and it's very important to put the vehicle into '4-High' on any slippery conditions, including wet roads, (whenever there's a chance of pooling)...(It's not about getting stuck, but with the relatively light rear end of the Jeep, '2-High' will allow the rear of the vehicle to "fish-tail" and potentially spin or veer into the path of on-coming traffic, or into the ditch...(Best case)...In '4-High', judicious, (or occasionally aggressive) use of the accelerator, will immediately stop the swerve, and pull you in the desired direction...'4-High', will also help you to maintain control of the vehicle at high-way speeds, if it starts to hydro-plane... An added benefit of the Manual transmission, whilst in '4-High' is that you can aggressively gear down on slippery surfaces, particularly, on a down hill, heading for a Stop sign, and, (using the clutch and engine), the vehicle will brake all four wheels together, without swerving...You can continue to gear down, selecting first gear, just before the stop...Any attempt to achieve the same amount of deceleration, using wheel braking, will simply lead to a swerve or wheel lock, while continuing to slide... (Just be sure to go back into '2-High', as soon as you're back on dry surfaces, so that you don't damage the drive-train...)

    • @PaulGoesPlaces
      @PaulGoesPlaces 4 місяці тому

      Yeah in BC they only require snow or M+S tires on certain highways. Having previously driven a vehicle with "all season" tires in my city and couldn't make it up a slippery hill a few times, I knew I wasn't going to mess around with bad tires.

      Not running 33s yet. I currently have the factory Rubicon wheels and 265/75/16 tires which probably translate to near 31" maybe? After winter I'm getting a second set of wheels specifically to run 33x12.5 most likely. I do have a "quick" disconnect on the front sway bar from a previous owner but I don't bother using it at the moment.

      @PaulGoesPlaces good to know I plan lifting my jeep 2 to 4 in planning on getting quick disconnect for my sway since I don't have that

    • @PaulGoesPlaces

      Mine seems to be sort of "eBay quality" and is a bit of a pain to actually get the ends disconnected. A proper high quality brand is what I would go with if I intended on actively using it I think...

      I have, and I may go that route at some point in the future. I figure I'll spend more time with the Jeep running than just being in one place so DC charging should be OK. I considered a super cheap 30W portable panel just as an emergency backup but we'll see.

      I don't do any fishing myself but my understanding is fishing is OK at any of the rec sites I visit. I think it's also the same for any lake on crown land. I do believe you require a license to fish though as there's some rules you need to follow.

    Hey Paul. Airing down the tires to about 16 to 20 will help with the rough off-road ride. Of course, it means having an air pump to get back to road pressure once you get off the trail but it's totally worth it and saves on backaches while enjoying the overlanding adventures!

      Seems to hold it decently stable while off-roading. I did upgrade the bolts for fun but I don't think that's a requirement. One thing I'll note is there is a sort of "squeaking/creaking" which you can sometimes hear in the video, and that's from the frame joints I think. I once sprayed lubrication all over the joints and it stopped for a little bit. I think there's just some slight movement which makes the sound, and I'll be trying some pipe clamps and stuff to see if it helps.
