Thought you guys would enjoy these.



 Installed a hitch, stock roof rack, mantec skid plates, General Grabbers AT2 255/60/R18, and a rear access ladder. Also made a hitch-mount for the winch. Looking to install a front hitch, rooft-top basket, and lift kit.

Nice shots. It looks like you were with a few heavy hitters by the looks of those Wranglers. A few extra inches in clearance would be good wouldn't it?

Excellent

What sort of tyres were you using for santa barbara and the mud?
and how did the FL2 compare to the Jeeps??

D99 - I used a set of General Grabbers. Wrote a quick review about them here: http://sam.odio.com/2011/11/29/review-gene...tires-lr2/

LR2 did well, but struggled several times due to low clearance. One pro: the LR2 had a much better driving position, I felt like I could see more of the trail. In the jeep it was hard to see much over the hood/bonnet. Installed a hitch, stock roof rack, mantec skid plates, General Grabbers AT2 255/60/R18, and a rear access ladder.

sro thanks.. always nice to see people taking the time to provide feedback, im using the new grabber A/T and although they don't look quite as aggressive as the AT2, so far so good. Although i haven't had them in the snow yet, and because they are fairly new there aren't alot of reviews yet.
