depends on a lot of factors including the driver's experience... a short wheelbase like a TJ probably 32's and 3" lift. larger vehicles like mine still scrape stuff in places on 35's and 6". we had another WJ with no lockers and he made it, but he worked really hard so i'd recommend at least 1...

my report and pics from the Rubicon trip start here on page 2: http://offroadpassport.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3693&page=2

couple pics from friends of Lafawnduh on the 'con... and i couple i took on the way back to phx...

thanks - we did! more pics soon... carnage was limited to a couple new scrapes, a busted tail light, and a majorly bent rock rail. the tools & spare parts bags never had to come out - yay!

close for sure - i think it'll be ok though. there was 1/2"+ of clearance and the other side's shock is fully extended in that pic. if it sat where all the weight was on a rear corner and further compressed a bumpstop, i think the tire would end up about where it is in that pic still now that we...

the bumpstop/extensions still moved after testing them out this weekend. well one side did, but i think we figured out where the weak point was and have it corrected now. writeup on the fix here: http://offroadpassport.com/forum/showpost.php?p=35538&postcount=881

trying to flex out enough to test a new rear bumpstop and shock bracket config

greased everything this morning including removing both drive shafts in order to get at the centering balls

changed how the rear shocks mount and the rear bump stops: http://offroadpassport.com/forum/showpost.php?p=35479&postcount=876 testing out the new setup:

you're welcome! new front brake lines and new routing today: http://offroadpassport.com/forum/showpost.php?p=35423&postcount=875

i'll check, but i don't think i'm the best person to ask because when we did the JK axles i think i gained some height due to the way the IRO spring perches sit on there.... update - at the B pillar, i'm about 76 inches to the roofline

haha, thanks and sorry to hurt your wallet like that!

i thought some of you would enjoy this... while prepping for Offroad Passport's tablet/phone based GPS clinic this weekend, i ran across a great black & white short film from the 1940's: Caught Mapping (9 minutes). it was sponsored by Chevy and talks about how maps were researched, authored...

yes indeed, i'm excited! Offroad Passport's other founders, George & Diane have been there a couple times before and will be leading the trip.

ah man, i never even knew it made it or purchased one - which pic is it? thanks!!

yeah it was a very dusty trip, and i was in the lead! i think we had 18 rigs total so i'm sure we kicked up a large cloud even moving slow.

the projector system got some use this weekend at camp, and i finally did a full writeup on that project here: http://theksmith.com/hobbies-interests/jeep-rear-screen-projector-for-camping/ the Mogollon camping & sight-seeing trip went great, there's a pic thread here...

i have the kenwood TM-V71A and i've only ever used 2m with it. however, i often use one side for our simplex trail frequency while keeping the other side tuned to a local repeater or to the national calling frequency (146.520). i plan to use that side for APRS eventually.
