hey cherokee4 i was just curious if you could tell me what kind of terrain there is at that park? is it woods and hard dirt, or is it more of a rock crawling park?
lots of red dirt and lots of thick mud!!!!!!!!!!!! i have never taken my xj there but i have been there with 4 wheelers its alot of fun, we did not ride through the whole place so im sure there are many more trails there not just mud holes

I bought a spankin new set of Wackers off Craigslist... it was wintertimne & ciold as heck... after I held the wackers up to the jeep I realised how thin and hard the material is... My guess was they'd snap in half if its below freezing. So rather than encounter dissapointment, I sold em for the same price I bought em

You are correct.
I just read the warranty and they repeat the same thing over and over "Used under NORMAL conditions". But who defines "normal conditions" lol
. Who needs fender flares anyway? I'm in northern VA and the cops around here don't care what you do to your jeep. They are just glad to see something other than a mercedes, bmw, lexus, or porsche.
