The Genright gear is really nice. Ive never seen it up close. They also make carbon fiber flares. I'd LOVE to get my hands on them. Super Light.
On attendee brought an old military quarter ton trailer. I'd love to have one of these that I could modify and match to my rig. They are few and far in between but I'd definitely pick one up at the right price and turn it into a camping rig. My 2 door has very little room for cargo if you have any rear seat passenger.
How about some beadlocks…I these are definitely on my long term list. These two-piece beadlocks are nice. Cool cutaway too. The cost is high..but so is the cost of a bead failure on the trail.
I just dealt with the same problem. Had to figure out how to get my 2-door jeep, family of four, and camping gear/luggage across the state to Silver Lake Sand Dunes.
I got lucky and found this custom enclosed trailer on craigslist for $500:
It even has tail lights from a 1989 Wrangler
So I finally Jesse’s Girl on the ramp and start getting jacked up. I get a bit flexed and Matson from Metalcloak does a quick walk-around of my system looking for limitations and spots that bind up, to offer suggestions for more flex. One guy was kind enough to take some pictures for me while I was on the ramp.
There was a huge crowd of folks just sitting watching jeep after jeep run on the CTI machine. One passerby noticed the six-pack shocks on my jeep, and having not seen them before I did some inadvertent Metalclock promotion explaining how the shorter shock body gave additional up-travel compared to a normal shock.
Matson asked for a couple shots of JG and the MC Tent so I took a few. It was really cool hanging out with the guy behind the system and getting some pointers on how to make it work better off-road.
Now we are getting somewhere.
How did JG do vs the other trucks on the CTI machine? I hope matson hugged you. Everything he makes is on that truck.
JG did just as well as set up as many of the highly modified JKs. Keep in mind that the gamechanger is a mid-arm system that flexs as well as most long-arm systems.
The main take-way from Matson (sadly, I didn't get a hug) was his inspection of my ride and confirmation of my previous thoughts that i needed to remove a complete section of bump-stop front and rear. I'm at the recommened-first-setup of 3 bumpstop sections. When I'm on the bumps, I have a ton of room in the rear left to travel and a bit in the front (very tight because of my not quite enough wheel offset). I plan to remove a section in the rear first and then in the front and then record my CTI score.
With 35s instead of 37s, the gamechanger system gets amazing CTI scores. The 37s do serve as the limiting factor with up-travel..but I love my 37KM2s dearly.
