We hit that trail for the first time last year. My son just loved it when we crossed the lake. So we crossed it again, and again, and again. We're probably going to camp up there this summer. I was running a 2018 JLU Sport S with a 3" lift and 35s.. This year we've got a new Rubicon with a 3" lift and 37s.

For any newbie watching this and not knowing what "hydrolocking" is or the cause of it. It's important to note that on water crossings, if your air intake goes under water, it can take out your engine. Best thing to do is pop your hood and see where your air intake is and how high or low it is so you can gauge how deep the safe zone for water crossings are. If not, be prepared to buy a motor.✌🤙
@coloradomallcrawlers
2 жыл бұрын
Good point, however the intake is just one of the pieces. You want to make sure your breathing tubes are extended as well as your electronics locations. I generally stick to the manufacturer’s water fording limits to keep a warranty intact (30in on a wrangler JL, 20in on a pre-JL wrangler). The air intake is much higher up than the limit usually and you’d likely be ok, but if you care about your warranty, be careful to stay under that water fording number.
@jamesakemon4115

Those fording numbers are based on the body air intake vents. One way vent, but it has been know to fail.

So you said that pulling a trailer is possible. I have a 5x8 utility converted to a camper so you think it could make it to the campground. I put a new clutch in my 03 Rubicon. It went well and when you do your own repairs you can visualize how everything works when you're on the trail.

Well, I’d pull my camper on it, but it’s up to you to decide for yours. I would not pull my camper on wheeler lake as it would be nearly impossible on obstacle 2. Here, there is no major obstacles to get hung up on so I would do it once I’ve waterproofed it. My camper only weighs 1700lbs (and will go on a diet soon), has a max coupler, and my Jeep pulls it well. I don’t have time to do my own repairs even if I wanted to, but I like having a qualified mechanic do it. My replacement clutch was bad from the factory, since a certified shop did the replacement, I had no problems getting the clutch replaced again and now it’s 100%. Thanks for watching!
