Detonator Pulls Through
So i just got a 09 JK Unlimited about two weeks ago and being a former Yota owner was a little skeptical at first of the Jeep mystic. With that said i took the Jeep out today for the first decent rain here in Arkansas to a trail that i have been scoping out, this hill was less than desirable when it was bone dry, tonight it was downright nasty. After approaching the hill in four high I started down, about half way down the Jeep started sliding and didn't stop. Once at the bottom of the hill the reality set in that we were pretty bad off. Nothing was coming down this hill to get us that couldn't fit under the trees. After taking 30min to turn around in a space barely big enough for a side by side we started back up the hill. About 12ft up the dreaded slide started and back down the hill we went. So down to Four Low we went; keep in mind this is an all stock Jeep with Kumho AT's. With a roar of the engine two cheering riders I made my way up the hill all four spinning: rock: and made another forever buyer of Jeep out of me (and two new shoppers searching for their first Jeep's). It's near 9pm so pics will be posted tomorrow; we are going back to the site tomorrow to get pics of the hill and all the Jeeps Glory.

Sounds good!
but you always should have some stuff with you when you go out, you never know what could happen or if you run into somebody else who's got some bad luck.
Cool to hear you so proud!
I bet seeing a Detonator Yellow JK screamin up a hil throwing dirt and shit everything would be pretty cool!

Awesome, next time tho, throw it in 4lo from the start, and disable the ESP (hold down the ESP button until you hear a *ding* and it says ESP off on dash) and you'll go anywhere.
