You're welcome for the reflectors. It was over 10 years I was part of those who installed them with FOTR.

LA traffic is an obstacle in itself. As soon as I heard left at 4 am San Diego, I said to myself “Your Screwed.”

I think I could do the Rubicon trail in my stock JKUR with no winch, of course I'm sitting here on my couch and I think I can climb Mt Everest too.

Thanks for sharing, i drove the Rubicon three times with the Jeep and Jeeper Jamborees. once in my bone stock 50 Willy's flat fender, once in buddy's early 70's Land Cruiser and the last time on our Motorcycles. We were lucky, we never broke anything and never needed to be winched out. The only issue we had was when my engine stopped in the Willy's in the middle of one of the water crossings and i used the starter motor to get us out. Unfortunately, not long after our last trip, i was in an accident that left me in a wheelchair. I still go off road on occasion, but the days on the Rubicon were my favorite! Thanks for sharing and enjoy each and every trip!

I'm a city guy and blown away by this video. Jeep over Bronco any day, including national holidays 😊🚙🚙🚙

Interesting! It always been the goal to run the Rubicon without ever using a winch. Or moving rocks but doing it as it was made by God.
