Nice, looks fun! You rub any thing front or rear on any obstacles?

No, everything was flawless. Never even hit the rockers, which I was nervous about having factory ones not frame mounted ones.

Looked like a awesome trip. Great pictures. I haven’t been on that side of the trail for a long time ,usually turn around at the springs to head back to Loon.

Yeah same here. Haven't been up Cadillac hill in over 15yrs. Nice not having to deal with a trailer like with my buggy, may have to go straight thru some time.

37in BFGs with Radflo extended length coilovers, so I think they are 2in more than stock bilsteins.

Do you believe oem 33 mt badlands can make every obstacle with no bypass routes in the rubicon? Would it be harder to go west to east?

2-door with 37s looks fantastic. Makes me want to order a 2-door Wildtrak with HOSS 3.0 and run 37s.

Yes and no. I have driven lots of different rigs thru and its doable in most. However there are a ton of variables and it will be harder and easier for most dependent on there skill, not necessarily the vehicle. I have driven a 1948 CJ2a thru with open diffs. It was a mission, and took a long time but was doable. There isn't really any bypasses on the rubicon other than the bypass around Old Sluice, so you would do the whole trail. The trail runs west to east, but people do run it backwards. If its something you are thinking about doing and are on the fence about it, don't be. Do it. Just prepare well and go with others that are experienced. The rubicon is an amazing place, I have been going there since I was in diapers with my family, and now that I have my own family I have been taking my kid there since he was in diapers. I got married there 11 years ago. I will go until I physically can't anymore. A good trip to plan going on is jeepers jamboree. I am going to that trip in two weeks. They take care of everything, parts, repairs, spotting you thru the trail, food, entertainment, everything. Its a great trip for first timers and new folks.

Broncos were always 2 doors!

Awesome rig! I am planning a trip there. I have been wanting to do 37's on my 2 dr badlands for a long time. Just was not sure about what kit to go with. This thing looks awesome! Can you give me the details on the lift, tires, wheels offset etc. And is your Bronco a Sasquatch? Thanks.

Great photos. May I ask what tire pressure you were running on?
