Andrew...you did great...so no lockers needed but prefered huh? Wish I could have been there too. Casey did I see you driving to your house. My jeep was parked at the house on the corner.

Lockers and 35s are needed at least when it is slippery. I got winched a few times and every skid plate on my jeep made contact.

Bob did fine, swaybar connected and all.

I only got scratches and a few dents. They are all on the underside and on the rubi rails. That doesn't bother me a bit.

Yeah if it was a black jku and the top and doors were off then it was me!!!! there are two other black 4doors out here though. I think if it were dry you could make it with out a locker. there were 2 places where we had to break out the gear to get everyone through but it was very wet and slick. I dont know why I dont have more video of peanut I got alot of yellow jeep footage though maybe I can photoshop his head in there

Here is the link to my climb at the end of upper raw deal!!!!

Lockers just make it easy ! Casey was making his own trails only needed winching 2 times but same spot for everyone wet & without lockers... Otherwise all good no dents or bent parts flexed drag-link but all is straight run down the highway at 80 mph no problem steering wheel straight centered and all can't wait to do it again with disconnected sway bar and 5:13 installed maybe set the super chip to crawl next time had a blast

I've been very jealous looking at your guys photos... and now Casey's video! Since the JK Experience got cancelled I've got an open weekend on January 15. Anyone interested in heading to TM to check out Casey's trail?
