I drove the jeep all the way out to Christmas valley sand dunes for a jeep club run with the Willamette valley jeep klub. It was a long day from 4am to 11pm! Lots of fun was had with 30 jeeps and a couple of other random 4x4s. Thanks to JandSjk for putting everything together!
No rocks to be found, so the next best thing was Tom's jeep!
With my new 4:1 tera low kit, 4LO was too slow for the sand, so I did almost everything in 2H at about 4,000 RPMs! It was fun!!! This dune was actually quite steep and required multiple attempts by some even in 4 wheel drive.. My solution was a foot full of fun!
Of coarse I had to hit it several times!
One of my earlier, slower,failed attempts. The big plus to 2 wheel drive is that you don't get a face full of sand in your window!
I was asked if my jeep could jump..... I said "yes, but it's the landing I'm worried about" against the recommendations of my 2 occupants, I decided that I didn't build my jeep up to not use it...... Up we went..
And down we came...... Yep.... Definitely not built for jumping!
My ride- 2001 power wheel, 11" plastic tires, upgraded battery, boat sides, custom bumpers, tow hooks, new paint.
