Default Round two at 'The Cliffs'

Ok here they are in no particular order. By the way, I am even more impressed with what my Jeep can do, by the end of the day I was wheelin with these two guys in XJs with about 6" lifts and 33's or bigger tires. I would watch them go through something that I was like, 'well, Im gonna get stuck for sure, but oh well...here it goes' and i dint get stuck. I just gave it hell and hung on. mean while getting tossed around the cabin like popcorn I just cant believe how well it handled that stuff. I just wish we got pics/footage of when i went into a rut sideways and somehow got pointed straight and got out of it.
Well You guys know the feeling. IT'S ADDICTING!!



body damage ! but the window still works



got stuck, kinda on purpose

Disposable has great pics. Much better than I had expected. Thanks, looks like you had a great time. Document the TJ flares and the fender trimming involved and make a technical writeup and submit it for the collection for CF.

5spd Looks like you had a great time in the mud. I like fire trails with some mud but you had more mud than I like to clean up after. As Kyle asked how much time/quarters did it take to clean that mud off? Bet it was a ton lighter afterwards.

Yeah it was a little less muddy than before. And I totally know what you mean about the smell, it smells sorta like the zoo in some places

I first hosed it down in my driveway, then took it to the wash, it took about $6 in quarters to get it looking close to clean. the interior still needs more scrubbing . I'm gonna take it to work and use the pressure washer there to clean off the under side.

Wow you must work faster then I do because when I take mine to the pressure washer it takes about 12$ in quarters.
