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. |
