Күн бұрын

This is the Wheeler Lake Off-Road 4x4 Trail which is near Fairplay and Breckenridge Colorado. A great 4x4 or Jeep trail which has rock crawling, mud slinging, flowing water, and typical Colorado Views. Rated as difficult by the experts, but we"ll let you be the judge. This video has great rock crawling, precarious spotting, and of course, trail beers so we hope you like it! Also, feel free to share this video with your buds that you want to bring onto the trail.
Channel Members have access to our filming schedule and I want you to be in the videos! The Black Bear crew gets additional easy to edit videos but offer more up to date info on trails (since guides take a while to put together). The Holy Cross crew gets more say in what videos get edited for the channel (video credits and early looks at Trail Guide edits). / @coloradomallcrawlers

Channel Info:
My name is Dewie Jones and I’m the reluctant host, videographer, and video editor for the channel. I’ve daily driven a wrangler my entire driving life starting with a 1997 TJ and now I’m in a nine year old 2012 JK. I like the challenge of driving a stock wrangler on tough trails. My buds are not new to wheeling either, but for their own specific reasons, now wheel aggressive SUV based off-roaders like KL Cherokees, 4Runners, and Renegades. We decided Colorado Mallcrawlers was a funny name so that's how we got here.
For trail planning, I use the Funtreks Books (amazon search: Funtreks books). I have the current editions of the Colorado books and Moab. I finish up my trail planning with trails offroad as they can sometimes have more detail as well as user submitted current conditions feedback. I’m testing GPS apps and currently don’t use one. Here’s my video that tells you how I do it. • Find off-road trails t...

Our Colorado Playlist:
• Colorado Jeeping!
As always, thanks for watching!! Your feedback helps me, so let me know if you can help me improve these. Share them with your nervous wheeling buddies (the Facebook groups never let me... self promotion apparently) so they can know that they can do the trail. Subscribe for more trails and off-road content.

Nice video. I owned a 2015 KL Trailhawk in green and drove it from MN to FL, out west, to Yellowknife, to AK, and back to MN. Not a bad trail rig with the 3.2L but in the WI mud it was not good. Traded that on a '17 MP Compass Latitude 4x4 6spd manual. Retrofitted Trailhawk skids on it. Gearing was no good for trails. Finally found my dream rig, which I still own and daily drive...have taken to to WY twice. 2018 JKRR 6spd. Stock suspension. Damn thing is a goat and easy to get through narrow WI trails. Not fun with 30+ MPH crosswinds on the interstate.

I absolutely get that… I can’t speak for the Cherokee, but I have wheeled a wrangler for over 20 years. When I was new, I was afraid I’d break it. I started with fire roads, then rockier trails, then even harder trails… I learned Jeeps were tougher than I thought. A well built Jeep or a stock jeep rubicon is built for the toughest trails… if it breaks, it failed and should be covered by warranty (granted you were wheeling appropriately).

He tried to do wheeler in his blue renegade and couldn’t get over obstacle 2 (would have included that video here, but it was so degraded and he lost the originals).

@@seanwatson3790 you ever do the math on the wheel torque on that versus the best XJ you could buy that hasn't been regeared and has stock tires ? Your crawl is 51.2:1 (with stock tires anyway it would be) multiplied by 295 engine torque is 15,177.57 lbs of total torque headed to the wheels. The BEST old XJ (2001, phase 2) , 5 speed with 3.55 axle (which was optional, not standard ) is 38.7:1 times 230 engine torque is 8905 lbs of total torque headed to the wheels. Even my 2.4 with the 56:1 crawl with 171 torque is 9576 still beating the total torque. headed to the wheels of the XJ. Your turbo sends 6272 more lbs of total torque towards the wheels. WAY more powerful setup. Not even close. So when people say the XJ is better I'm like... Flex is all maybe. That's it though... Even with a re gear I don't think the XJ can match the wheel torque without engine mods etc. A diff swap won't be enough I think... 2.0 is a beast!

@@seanwatson3790 do you know if anybody has ever tried any softer springs on the Cherokee Trailhawk? I think the Dobisons actually have a 10% higher spring rate. I've never heard of anybody go in the other direction but it would certainly help I think in the flex department but it would hurt you in the towing department. I think you said in a video you've got the long travel Fox shocks are those the same shocks that MFC sells that will give you 11.5 in of suspension travel I think they said? Have you ever done a diagonal "oil change ramp" type test with it? I haven't seen a single video of a flex test on a Cherokee Trailhawk that has made any improvements for suspension travel. I'll have to make the video if I get those shocks. If somebody else wants to beat me to it go right ahead I just want to see the video lol. MFC claims SAS level suspension travel. I believe them - they seem like good honest people, I just have never seen it.

Looking to get something newer than my WJ (which a previous owner neglected beyond the motor which is a fantastic 4.7L with 243k miles). It’s a money sink to fix up just so I can take the family on some adventures like these. Besides not being able to afford a Gladiator, I do not want a Wrangler and this TH is within the price range. Fantastic video and it’s encouraged me further with it. I’m learning the aftermarket is scarce which is saddening and is why I haven’t fully committed to the TH yet. However, I am a busy body who gets creative. Maybe I’d end up a good supplier for aftermarket modifications 😅 Extra $ is great 🎉

Inside windshield cleaning is difficult. You can find various videos and techniques on it but the best seems to be to use something like rubbing alcohol first to thoroughly degrease then move to the cleaners using microfiber towels.
