05 Flame Red TJ Build

[Alex01]

Nice photos. @Jesse Marquez's jeep looks like the same color as the one we were eye balling on elephant hill. Glad you're settling in and finding new people to wheel with.

Haha! I can’t stop finding people to wheel with. Now I just need to find someone to go to funny rocks with me, maybe get @Jesse Marquez built up to go and/or get @Mumblewood to meet up there!

when is yourMoab trip? 2021?

 

[Mumblewood]

I’ll be up there either the 9th or 10th of November. They may be under snow, but that hasn’t stopped me before

Very interested! What do you think needs to be done besides disconnects?

I would assume quite a bit. Funny rocks is pretty hardcore stuff!

I'd say 33's

I definitely wouldn't be ready for that soon of a trip then. Oh well, I'll make the next one ! I'm hoping to put on some 33s next summer.

I've had the most fun wheeling my rig on 31's. Just saying brah!

It can be done. The question is should it be done?

That's what I kept telling myself the time I ran the Rubicon on 32's, lol!

Went through your whole build over the past few days, great read. Nice Jeep!

Just in case the count was lost 8 days until Moab!

I’m looking at this car hauler trailer. Anyone with good eyes see any pros/cons to a trailer like this?

I’d want to weld an inner fender on. Asking $1150

Im certainly not a pro with these, but this one does look pretty low - which could cause problems (drainage ditches being one “obstacle” that could cause interference).

 

[lowranger]

I agree with it being so low. You'll be dragging everywhere.

Why not buy new? We bought a brand new 18ft steel deck car trailer for about $2k this past year.

Oh, bc I have five kids and I always feel a little guilty buying toys for myself rather than putting it back for them.

what brand trailer?
