Whenever I see these videos I think of those old school Camel Trophy guys just thrashing their Disco's through all those obstacles. Dudes getting out and helping to push those things through mud...on 31" tires. Now people make a surgical science out getting through rocks. Awesome Jeep. I would love one of those 4 door.
@enjoipandas They are "Limb Risers" (made by River Raider). Where I usually wheel there are lots of trees and tight trails, the wires lift the limbs up over the rig so they don't smack the windshield or smack you in the face through the windows.
Again, the spotter was absolutely on point, and very experienced... It was I that may that more difficult than it should have been as I had just about no power steering which is no fun on aired down 40's.
@spankybrandonf I couldn't agree more! I would have NEVER made it through that hot tub without him spotting. I was still using stock power steering and had not yet upgraded to hydro assist so it made turning the wheel impossible without some sort of forward or rearward movement. The spotter understood this and guided me through patiently and perfectly.
@MrFito76 A stock one might have a little bit of an issue with this obstacle because of the break-over point and dragging the rear while trying to go up.. but it would only take slight modifications to do it.
As it is now, 2008 Rubicon 6 speed, ProComp 6" LA lift but now with 12" Rock Krawler 2.625 coil overs.

@quadkid4 Their limb raiser I think it's called. Just to move branches and such out of the way. I know scars are cool, but if you could avoid getting your paint scratch why not...
thats some sick jeep thats my dream to make it look like that im 16 i have a jeep wrangler jk 2007 unlimited. i wanted to know to fix it up like how u have it how much dose it cost?
What do you mean take the back off? He just took the top off like any Jeep is made to do and put a safari top on with a wind jammer. You can get them for cheap.
@paintballer653 Yes, Mashed Potato in Moab.. Grinding gears?? there wasn't really any shifting to even grind gears.Was all done in 4-lo 1st and a couple times I shifted into reverse. You might be hearing the slack in the chain in the t-case.
great video - lemme know what you think of mine, I'm more of an amature wheeler but I film all my adventures plus we go to a TON of jeep events and the angles are awesome!~
I don't have it on the tube, but for your info...'03 Rubi w/6.5 in. LA, 1 in. BL, 40" MT/R Kevlar, hydro st. assist....and too much to list. The funny thing is I have half the amount of $ in my rig than my buddy with a similarly equipped '04. I done all the work myself, even fabricated my lift. That was my point. People driving around in rigs they don't even understand. Not in this case, but 90% of the time.
@Guyll21 As stated before here in the comments.. At the time, the rig did not have hydro assist.. just factory PS which didn't last long on aired down 40's. The spotter was giving these commands because I couldn't execute the prior command properly as any assisted steering was all but lost by the exit of the hot tub. The dynamics of the situation was a rig with blown power steering in a relatively tight hot tub with a hard right exit that would have normally been a pretty easy obstacle.
I was a truckjeep/you name it driver for the army so I know my shit. First rule: get off, walk it, and they (try to) drive it. Don´t leave anything or any corner or any rock to chance.
Big time props to the driver and the awesome rig, but gotta say the spotter was SPOT ON! Awesome vid!
That was a damned good spotter, and an even better driver. Nice machine brother!
That's one of the best jeep i've ever seen. Good luck with it
EXCELLENT job to both the driver and spotter here!
Awesomly built jeep, and great job driving as well as spotting.
good constant instruction. unlike some who only speak when things are just about to go wrong or already have :)

Awesome Jeep. I would love one of those 4 door.

What an amazing beautiful Jeep man!!!! Great job!!
Best rig on You Tube, and I watch a lot of youtube!!

Again, the spotter was absolutely on point, and very experienced... It was I that may that more difficult than it should have been as I had just about no power steering which is no fun on aired down 40's.
good looking jeep
What a capable jeep, I really thought it is impossible to go up that wall in the end but it went up what was that 70° wall .amazing
Nice jeep and nice climb
@spankybrandonf

Did you change any gearing after the lift. And second that is the coolest soft top I have ever seen, where did you get that
4 dr jeeps are kick ass perfect wheel base
so so sick!! i want one!!!
holycrappers. that was awesome. steep as his insurance rates haha
thats a sick jeep
@MrFito76
A stock one might have a little bit of an issue with this obstacle because of the break-over point and dragging the rear while trying to go up.. but it would only take slight modifications to do it.
Awesome Video. Quik question.. Where did you get your side nets for the rear of the jeep?
Dude SICK JEEP, is it manual? it's hard to tell but if it is, very nice driving.
nice job man.... I would look at that jack on the spare.... could cause u some problems...
Nice video. That's how its done.
Damn I love that jeep. makes it look easy.
Thank you.. Again, I had a great spotter.
I really didnt think it would make it. Specially in water. Wow!
Nice Jeep

@HITMONEY Thats really interesting. Thanks and happy wheeling.

What brand of tops are you using?
I've never seen a fully enclosed duster windjammer combo, looks good!
thats some sick jeep thats my dream to make it look like that im 16 i have a jeep wrangler jk 2007 unlimited. i wanted to know to fix it up like how u have it how much dose it cost?
Love it!!!!
you should put a walk-around video on! sweet jeep!
Damn fine spotter on that one!
that is sick!
really nice out man
What did you use to black out your headlights? Sick Jeep. Great job.
Hey man what suspension and snorkel is that. I really like it!
Could you please tell me where u got that top and back window from I really like the way that looks..... Thanks
@HITMONEY oo ok i thought it looked famaliar... maybe what i heard was you shifting into first? or it could be the slack on the t-case
I love how you took the back off to look like a duel cab ute.
What do you mean take the back off? He just took the top off like any Jeep is made to do and put a safari top on with a wind jammer. You can get them for cheap.

thats so bad ass!
Are your wheels flat or gloss black? Jw. Thanks. And nice jeep!!!

Thanks! The top is made by Off Road Heros.
They are limb risers.. not real useful in Moab, but very useful back here on the east coast.
looked effortless
that looks awesome! can anyone tell me the purpose of the 2 wires running from the hood to the windshield?
Bad ass jeep.
@HITMONEY What kind of modifications are we talking about - $, Thanks.
Yes, the axles were replace with Currie Rock Jock 60's and geared to 5.38
The top is made by Off Road Heroes. ;)
awesome vehicle
It was actually some of the best spotting I've ever had. It was difficult for me to follow instruction as I had just about zero power steering.
Only in a Jeep, baby!!
I want one so badly.

Your a fucking beast!!! Oh shit gotta love a jeep!! I love my jeep!!!
i see some strings going from the bumper to the top frame of the windshield, what are those for?
Nice terrain.
I was a truckjeep/you name it driver for the army so I know my shit. First rule: get off, walk it, and they (try to) drive it. Don´t leave anything or any corner or any rock to chance.
Great video! Do you run the stock engine or a V8 upgrade?
@HITMONEY How much did all that cost you ? jeep+mods ? Im thinking about financing one
good spotting
