    Great video! Love this trail. I’m glad it’s open and free from snow! I know what I’m doing next weekend 😝

    Wow, incredible ride. Those winches come in handy! And the places you take that Mo-chine to- who says you need a great breakover angle and front lockers! With that back bumper, I would work on getting a nice steel one that looks better on the rig the more you beat it up.
    Oh, and that smoke that comes from the intake valves from the PCV valve, it's supposed to burn off real quick but never does. Any jeepers will let you know that in steep accents, the accumulated oil under the valve cover collects to the backside and trys to burn through one cylinder. It might foul the spark plug, or worse yet clog the manifold. I have an oil catch can when I heard about that. I have to empty it every 2k miles (and the oil mix that's in it smells and feels foul) but I think it's possible that I increased the life of the engine. My dealer said it might not pass smog inspection, but I'll worry about that when the time comes.... again thanks for showing us what the Mojave is capable of.

      That’s some solid info Billy! Hope you’re doing well!

      There’s a couple other systems available for the smoke refill kit. I have teraflex kit that puts the oil back into the oil fill area. Good luck all

    Spring creek is one I still need to get out to. I’ve heard it’s a great time. I’ll get out there at some point. Nice video!

      Thanks!! Definitely worth knocking off your bucket list.

    Great video! Thanks for sharing it with us. You're doing some tough trails, keep your spirits up. Can't wait to do Spring Creek one day.

    You know you love the challenges. Sounds like you’re in the same headspace I was in at Windrock… it comes and goes, but wheeling with friends is never a bad day, even when bad things happen. ❤

    Fun times again… the wall is no joke…. And the whole trial in general. I’m hoping you all do Kingston peak when it opens

      Noted! That one looks fun. Now we just have to wait for the snow to melt!

    Great video! You were due for a bumper upgrade anyway...

  • @marshallanderson4609
    @marshallanderson4609 Рік тому

    Impressive for not having a front locker!! I imagine that is on your list of immediate upgrades needed...

    • @FarFromOrdinary

      Thanks! Yeah if funds allowed for it we'd definitely do it but I've learned to get along without it!

    Fun to see how on different obstacles the longer wheel base is an advantage. No front locker and walked up the wall vs. the white Rubicon Wrangler with both lockers. Did the red Wrangler that took damage have steel fenders? Wonder if it would have saved body damage if they were plastic? Great video!

    • @FarFromOrdinary
      @FarFromOrdinary  Рік тому

      It's a blessing and a curse I tell you what! And GREAT point on those steel fenders (which they are). It's really too bad KBD doesn't make a highline version!

    FYI - The first obstacle on Spring Creek is not a gatekeeper obstacle. You can easily drive around it on the alternate portion of the trail.

    • @FarFromOrdinary
      @FarFromOrdinary  Рік тому

      True, there is a bypass, but we really don't count the bypasses as part of the trail. If you're going to run a trail like this, you gotta do it all!

    Dang man, this looks even more intense than the last one! Y’all are going hard!
    I love your story-telling. Makes me ask the same question: why do we do this? Personally, I love going places most people can’t get to. I love the beautiful scenery, the relative peace and quiet, the adventure, a little bit of adrenaline, figuring out how to get over the challenges (obstacles), the quality time with my family, and as you mentioned, the great time with friends. All that being said, could we not have found a hobby that’s just a little less expensive, and where the consequences aren’t SO expensive?? LOL!

      thanks Jason!! Yeah Brandi found a hobby making stuff out of wire why we can't we have a cheap hobby like that! LMAO

    Did it seem like the white jeep had too much air in his tires?

    • @FarFromOrdinary
      @FarFromOrdinary  Місяць тому

      We're all aired down. Videos make it always look like we're not.

    Why did everyone continue on the far right side by the tree after seeing the others take body damage and not hook onto the winch point on the left top side?

    • @FarFromOrdinary
      @FarFromOrdinary  Рік тому

      Garrett and I both started on the left side away from the tree. After I made it up and then Garret, Ben tried the line by the tree.
