This is the third and final part of a series of videos from May 27, 2023. I met up at Stony with a new group named Absolution Offroad (best group I've ever wheeled with) and a "new" Jeep, ready to test out all the new parts in earnest.
I just want to reiterate, as I've mentioned in my past videos, that climbing obstacles with a manual transmission (especially one with a 2.72:1 t-case still) is EXTREMELY difficult. The thing just won't stay cranked. I guess I'm just a terrible driver, who knows.
I definitely couldn't have done this (nor would I have had the courage) if it weren't for such a supportive group in Absolution Offroad. This will be a day I never forget. I hope you enjoy watching as I nearly sh*t myself several times when I thought I was rolling over for sure. Sketchy, sketchy!
