An Adventure of a Lifetime
The 56th Annual Jeepers Jamboree 2008

July 28th, 2008

In addition to its spectacular beauty and rich history, there is a reason why the Rubicon is legendary and considered to be the Mecca of all Jeep trails. Without a doubt, the Rubicon is by far one of the most challenging and demanding 17 miles of trail that you can possibly run. The countless boulders, ledges, trees, water crossings, mud, tippy rock faces and tight squeezes that you encounter along its entire length are relentless and determined to break you down both mentally and physically. Certainly, the Rubicon is not a trail for the faint of heart or the squimish as breakdowns, rollovers and body damage is the norm and is to be expected. And, if you're feeling the call that all Jeepers feel deep inside their hearts of running the Rubicon someday, I would highly recommend that you do it with the Jeepers Jamboree.

Project-JK Twin Peaks Trail Run South Lake Tahoe, CA

July 13th, 2008

So I was watching my favorite TV personality, Todd Offenbacher (a real hoot to watch), on the local Tahoe RSN channel when I saw a piece he did featuring a local wheeling spot that was right here in the South Lake Tahoe basin. Apparently, this area was called Twin Peaks and was just minutes away from the Y (where highway 50 and 89 split off) and if you can believe it, in all the years that I have been coming to Lake Tahoe, I can honestly say that I had never heard of this place.

Extended Brake Line Installation

July 12th, 2008

If you've just lifted your Jeep JK Wrangler 3" or more (or are planning to do so), you will need to do one of the following: A) Install a set of rear brake line extension brackets or B) Install a set of extended brake lines like the kind that Currie Enterprises or Crown offers through Northridge4x4. Without them, you will run the risk of damaging your factory brake lines and/or compromise it's connection to your brake calipers when flexing on the trail.

Upgrading your brake lines to a set of extended ones is simple to do and the instructions below should make it even easier for you.

Jeep JK Wrangler Axle Basics

July 02nd, 2008

With more and more people building up their Jeep JK Wranglers and getting them to sit on 37" tires or larger, it's no wonder that so many members of JK-Forum.com have made axles and the components that make them what they are, one of the hottest topics of conversation. Whether it be in regards to installing new gears, upgrading axle shafts or replacing them altogether, people are looking for answers and in more cases than not, I have found that they don't even know what questions to ask. Of course, a lot of this is because the subject of axles is completely Greek to them.
