that looks like a pretty sweet trail i need to come up and wheel it

a few notes that i saw from the vids

1) kirk make sure when winching with cable you weight the line yes it was a short pull but still a winch blanket is cheaper than a leg or arm

2) the silver 4dr jk that runs the mtr's(sorry i don't know who owns it i have not been in ct for a few years) but from the vids it looks like you could drop a couple of more pounds of air and it would aid in traction

3) ed it still worries me you sold out for a yota (no offence to any one else who owns a yota) but it looks like it does pretty good on the trails

but it looks like you had a good time with only a minor casualty (a blown bead) so keep it safe and some time i will make the drive back up there for some wheeling

Argh! I cant want Youtube videos at work! And it wont let me watch it on my cell phone either. Just have to wait till I get home, its killing me.

I know I got a Toyota, just wanted something different. I'm not yet decided which one I  like better as both offer loads of fun just in slightly different ways.

The silver 4dr Rubi would be me(skibum). I no it does not match my avitar because its all grown up now.  I agree with you 100% on airing down more. That was my first time out with the new lift & tires. Was testing so won't have any superizes on flouida vacation this weekend. I was down to 12psi but feel 8psi will be the next step. Running a 12.50 tire on a 8in wide by 15in rim should be plenty safe at 8psi w/o blowing a bead. Maby even lower but will see how they flex at 8psi.  The blown bead was on jksue's jeep & we had it aired back up in 15min.

Rope is installed and so is the hook isolator thing that Daystarmakes
 I am still waiting on the aluminum fairlead to show up. Also, I need to fix my fenders, they got beat uppretty bad.

you might have to uninstall the new rope to put the hawse on just an FYI i have had to do it on every rope i have installed and when i ordered rope from masterpull alex said that the a standard roller fairlead is fine as long as it is not gouged

Hawse came in and went right on, didn't have to pull the rope off.  I did have to pull out the dremel to sand down the Daystar Hook Isolator to make it fit nice in the alluminum hawse.  Looks good and saved a lot of weight, I would estimate I dropped 30-40 pounds going to rope and the alluminum hawse.
