yeah stock cherokees rock well sort of

[Oizarod115]

stock sucks? :nuts:

 

i wheel the piss out of my manche stock

 

just gotta be a little more careful with your diff placement

 

the first one is locked in the front, don't know about rear

[DansGreyMj]

not to mention its running 31 inch IROKS

[DirtyComanche]

Was it just me or was a chick named Scott driving it?

 

 

How steep is that slope? Anyone been there? It's hard to tell with the camera... I think I would have used a more throttle approach, but it's hard to say without seeing it...

 

 

 

But all I can say is I'm pretty sure I've taken my DD XJ through worse. And that's not what I consider hard. The XJ/MJ platform wheels awesome for stock (they're one of the cheapest most capable vehicles out of the box) - but stock still sucks.

it's a chapter members wife driving it. Katy is her name, that's supposedly a level 5 trail.

Anyone else ever have trouble viewing youtube movies? All I get is a big blue 'Q' with a question mark over it. Quicktime sucks. :hateputers:

[Mitch]

yes I F'ing hate quicktime. I would uninstall it all from your computer and only install the very minimal options when required to reintall. Thats what I did, and my computer is much happier now.

[Pete M]

I've tried that but nothing changed, so I went back and reinstalled it. No change. I've screwed around with every setting I can find and there's no change. :mad:

[Mitch]

have you tried rockcrawling over your computer? I would try that, but make sure someone video tapes.

[Pete M]

If I could afford to replace it, I would. :D

[Mitch]

In internet explorer you could try:

 

Tools > Internet Options > Advanced

 

Check the setting there and as a last resort could try to reset your settings...

 

I would try the same thing on your Windows Media player as well, if not before doing IE.

[Pete M]

No freaking WAY!! I uninstalled quicktime with the intention of trying again and just for the heck of it I went to the U-toob page and now it works! Oh happy day! I'm not touching quicktime again until something pops up that I can't view. And even then I better really really want to view it.

 

By the way that's a heck of a path there. Makes me want to throw lockers in my stock-looking '90 and go kick some butt. :D

I agree. It appeared like all that was needed was some steeringwheel work and a teeny bit more wheel speed.

I do have that mini-spool that's comin' outta my 88's front Dana 44. I could easily throw that into the back of the 90 for trails. :brows:

I watched the video with a couple friends over and we all agreed that the terrain didn't look that difficult, but I guess one would have to see it in person.

Thats what I thought as well, just looked like it was loose stuff, with some big stuff sticking up, more ground clearance and he would have walked right up it with no issues. Who said size doesn't matter :eek:

[jage]

Man that near brought a tear to my eye. I miss my XJ... just goes to show you get to belivin that 35s and all that crap is necessary and forget how exciting and capable near stock is.... sigh... still I long to run 37s or 38s

 

Also I wish I could get my wife to drive!
