Got some time on lift today
Tried out the lift today on the Hells Half Acre Trail, which is one of the tougher trails around here. Wheelin with the East Idaho Jeep club and had a large turn out and some carnage (other rigs, not mine) so we didn't get near enough wheelin done. Mostly wrenching. Got a few photos of my rig on the trail and I'll post one of broken pinion repair in progress. Don't say anything about the risky looking high lift jack situation as it wasn't my doing. The rear diff was locked up so the field repair had to be done on a slope in the lava rocks. Had CJ steadied with winches from both sides and wheels underneath the frame on both sides. Still, I'm glad I didn't have to crawl under it.
The extra ground clearance was great and I did one of the rougher parts of the trail that I've been going around in the past. Happy with the lift so far.
