Ive never seen a 2 wheel jeep before... I saw Pook once on one wheel, but that was a bit different. He was going downhill...

I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...

I've seen a few people try to get up that hill unsuccessfully, your brother made it look easy.

You drove up the FACE of widowmaker? or did you drive up the backway that brings you to the top of widowmaker? i honestly believe that there is no way a jeep or truck can go up the face of widowmaker.
Please post pics and/or video. You will be a legend for doing it. i am bowing down to you right now!!!!!

it was the face as far as i know .. in the video of the guy on the dirt bike he went up dead center then he tried to the left .. i was  just to the right side of the center trail .   ill try to get the video from my friend she has it on her camera .. i hope she still does.


it was scary .. i have no reason not to admit to that

wow. i know of no one to do it. i know 1 guy on a polaris 800? renegade that did it, and i heard 4x4's trying but sucking out. Seriously, that has to be the tuffest climb ever for a 4x4. My hat is off to you sir.

I would never take my jeep up there but my brother and i took our outlanders 800 up last year on the left side We made it. they r great and have tons of power for that hill.I made 5 runs on my 350xcf ktm yesterday  and i still can't make it. A lot harder on a bike.

I've stood by the trailside while surveying the miscellaneous damage and assorted broken parts after Jeff hot dogs on an obstacle. He's like Forrest Gump behind the wheel sometimes

It's definitely a compliment. You treat your Jeep like how I treat hotel furniture.


So, where's the vid/pics of you bitch-slappin Widow Maker?
