Default Sand dunes question?

So every spring break me and my friends drive up to silver lake sand dunes with our dirt bikes. This year I would love to bring my jeep! What sort of preparation do I need to do to it to get it ready for the sand?

Ok I'll have to look into the body stiffeners. But is there anything I'll need to do to the air intake?

Not unless your pouring sand into the intake.... But a good air filter ( i like the paper filters myself) and air down your tires.


for sand. remember the wider the footprint the better
