Well, the first picture and the last picture are from my most recent trip and the middle 3 are from my trip in November. Gulches, where I am at in the pics, is not really that muddy. It is a ravine, rock, and hill climb place. You really dont sling that much mud. THat picture in the middle is just great photography by Johnyquik. That looks like mud flying but is really just sticky clay/dirt because the pedal was depressed fully in that pic, if you get my drift. Other than those resons, pressure wahser anad foamy brush??

I like it! I'm getting a lift and 35's in march. How is the power without regearing? And also, if you know off the top of your head, what kind of gas mileage are you getting? I live in new Mexico and range on a tank of gas is important because we must travel so far with no gas stations in between :(

I have 4.10 gears in my Rubi and the power is much improved. In my 10, I never got to use overdrive on the interstate so MPGs were bad. Now in my 12, I stay in overdrive. I am getting 18.1 right now but I have a very gas friendly commute. I get about 16 on the interstate doing about 78 mph

A little feedback on the MBRP exhaust, I went to Hickory NC yesterday and back today. A trip that I ahve done 2 other times in my Jeep. I would get about 15.3 MPG on that trip with the 35s and my driving style. This trip, the first with the MBRP, I got 17.4 MPG. No idea if the exhaust should ahve that kind of effect, but the exhaust is all that is different so that is what I am attributing the increase to. Just an FYI

Just got done installing my aFe exhaust. Installation was pretty straight forward and I was able to do it by myself. The only pain in the ass was getting the hangers off. Lots of lube and a decent pair of pliers did the trick. It took me about 2 hours. I really like the end result. The muffler tucks up high and out of the way. You can barley see the exhaust tip. I really like the sound. Little raspy right now but that should change after a few hundred miles. Not to loud and not to quiet......the sound is just right. Throttle response is much better now. It was too dark outside to take a decent picture of it installed. I'm really tired after getting those damn hangers off and I need a beer.
