Re: Thought my Rubicon could fly - oops
A bent axle shaft is not the same as a scratch. If you are interested in
jumping, more power to you. But before you do much more take a tour of the
supermarket magazine rack, and find out what the Baja racers use...

Re: Thought my Rubicon could fly - oops
You are quite right. I didn't expect to get that high off the ground. The
trail up had two places that required shifting to keep a steady speed. The
t-case was in low and trans was in 4th.
It's better to learn from someone near by that knows how much punishment the
vehicle can take. Otherwise your lessons will be expensive.
My plan is to get the jeep to an alignment shop to see how bent the axle
might be.
