So, took the jeep out for the first time off roading since i got it at Stony Lonesome OHV park. Its a 99 TJ, 4.0l, Auto, 4" susp"lift and 3" BL, 33X12 on 15's. Stock gears, 4high only, low does not work because i think the linkage is wrong.
Anyways. First time out for the jeep since i purchased it 1 month ago. never owned one or any 4x4 for that matter.
So this is a OHV park. So things are marked, Easy, advanced, and extreme. There is a main road that leads to all the trails. I had a very very hard time making it up the first hill on the main road in 4H.
I had the pedal to the floor in 1st gear and i was barley crawling up the hill. I thought i wasn't going to make it. After this point i was scared and worried about even going down the other paths. I made it through all the easy section and didnt get to try the advanced afraid i wouldn't make it up the hill. Oh yea, I did have the air on and it stopped blowing going up the hill. I thought it was weird.
any suggestions?
