 JEEP DRIVING & TRAIL TIPS


I'm pretty sure the phrase "shit happens" was first uttered in a Jeep. Flat tires, broken U-joints and sheet metal damage are all part of the game. Hopefully this section will help you avoid some of these challenges on the trail.

Carry Extra U-Joints

It's a simple fix and a cheap one too. But I've stilll seen broken U-joints put more rigs out of commission on the trail than virtually anything else. Pick up an extra set of U-joints and stash them in your emergency kit. For around $35 you can prevent a simple problem from ruining your whole day.

Use a Hand Throttle

If you've ever been stuck in a tight spot where it's necessary to use the gas, brake and clutch then you're familiar with this problem: three pedals, two feet. The simple solution is a hand throttle like the one from Rubicon Express. They're fairly cheap at around $35 and they can usually be installed in less than an hour.

Adjust Your Headlights

There are a myriad of adjustments to make after you lift your Jeep. One that often gets overlooked is your headlight angle. It's a quick fix and it'll help you see the terrain in front you better...not to mention it'll save the driver of that Honda Civic in front of you from severe blindness.
