Those look like 2 different trucks from the first 2 posts.

They are the same truck right?

[JeepLab]

Same truck, just before and after coil overs.

When we did the coils, the duratracs came off and the 37'' KM2s went on, We also changed flares to Nemesis.

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. But not to detract from this thread, what kind of roof rack did the RIPP jeep in Moab have on it?

If you point me to a picture I can help better.

The RIPP truck was redone this year, so I need to tell if its last years truck or the current one.

The one shown in the video at 2:02.

[JeepLab]

Turns out Ross from Ripp made that roof rack.

Custom.

[ljvsnyder]

Thanks, tell him he did a good job.

Can we plan an early fall Rausch Creek Jeeplab trip?

[JeepLab]

I just realized that we missed registration for topless for TATAs. WTF!!

I love the Facebook post from RC, where I find out its sold out. I was looking forward to that. Didn't realize there was a limit on jeeps.

Im down for a JL trail ride. Jessee will tell you Im the WORST on the trail, making people stop in the middle of technical wheeling so I can get the camera out.

If we can get a few trucks together, I'll promise to keep the photography to a minimum.

[Yoinkers]

Id go with you guys. Make a post if you figure out a date you like

[Pznivy]

Is this happening? Id like to meet everyone.

[Snarf77]

Is this happening? Id like to meet everyone.

Yes i it will happen. I'm voting early october?! Perfectly cool weather for windows down. I'll get with ross, set a date, and we'll put it on the calendar.

[Pznivy]

October works for me. Lock it up!

[JeepLab]

Im going to have to take sweet pea at gun point. We will wheel all power modded Jeeps together,

Ill take 1000 pics, and Jesse will stab me for slowing him down. Standard JL wheeling trip!

[UselessPickles]

When you get all the power-modded jeeps together, you need to go through a rotation driving each other's Jeeps so we can get some subjective driveability comparisons from all of you. At least do some street driving comparisons. It's completely understandable if you don't want to swap Jeeps while off road.

Pete, (Sweet Pea) is normally the driver of Black Betty, while Ross (Black Betty) has the camera. Ive been on the trail with them before. You guys are going to need a new camera man. (or woman)

This is actually a very astute analysis. I have nothing to add. :) I threw a date to Ross..he has to get back with me or offer a better one! I want it on the calendar and set in stone.

[Snarf77]

I"ll be at Raush Creek Park this weekend (Saturday) if anyone cares to join up?! I'm going with a couple local guys and its always a blast. If you want to join up, contact me, post here, or be up there at 9am looking for Jesse's girl. Weather will be nice..chilly, but nice.

[UselessPickles]

Will this be your first time off road with the turbo?

[Snarf77]

nope. been there before. first time on latest tune.

[UselessPickles]

I don't recall you sharing any thoughts on how the turbo affected your off-road driving. Take some mental notes this weekend :)

[Snarf77]

The turbo was a pleasure off road! Tons of power in 4 low for climbing...there are some big climbs at Rausch and it had been raining on Friday. That means some of the steepest surfaces were slippery as can be. The increased power made it MUCH more reliable for expectable torque when climbing those hills. Overall a great time..with the exception of 4 hours of cleaning on Sunday/Monday!

[Rexx19]

Any pics of the Turbo in rocks and mud?

[Rexx19]
