I've watched this video numerous times now. I'll be there with my family in August, 2021 with Jeep Jamboree USA. Your video gives me a real world look at what to expect. Nice job.
the Rubicon is one of our favorite trails, we completed it our first time after only dating for 3 weeks! been back a couple times now and still loving it!
Better than watching a movie on Netflix , it was like I was sitting in the drivers seat . Looks like a lot of fun thinking about getting a jeep and joining all of you . great job shooting the video enjoyed it very much .
Awesome video!!! How lucky are we to have such a beautiful trail system to use!!! What a great country!!! Thanks for sharing!!!! :) Oh, I have a feeling your wife got quite a workout following alongside videoing!! Lolol. She did a great job!
Mike, Great meeting you and Chris on the Rubicon this year. Awesome experience to say the least. I want to go back yesterday! LOL. Had to watch your video again to take in the experience. If you are ever planning a trip to Southern California, let me know and we can hit the trails up in Big Bear. See ya next year at the Rubicon and all the best to you and your family!
Looks like an amazing time! Wish we were closer to trails like these. In CT we pretty much just have trails through the woods which lead to pinstripe city so not always fun 😂
Man times have changed, I remember twice a year we would run the Rubicon with 4 other rigs 6 days taking our time front to back camping at the lakes every night running every trail out there and not a rig with over 35" tires. Fixed everything from broken axles to bending and welding parts back together on rigs through out the night and over a 6 day period you might see another group of vehicles out on the trails (might). Don't have much time to wheel these days but makes me want to go through the old 76 Cj7 and get it cleaned up and at least hit some local trails that are still open.
it can still be like that. we have found ourselves alone on the Rubi a few times our last trip. we have started to shy away from the large group events, especially now that we have the two 2 door jeeps.
Looks like you guys had a great time up here on the trail. We have never done the Jeepers Jamoree but we use to service the food for the Ruboton (Toyota run) for years. Are you going back this year?
cool video. How big of lift do you have? I am going end of june begining of july and have 3.5 inch lift with 35 inch tires and bead locks front and rear lockers
@@BullGearOffRoad Thanks for the info. Also wanted to say thanks for the honest info on the Milestar tires i have seen a bunch of videos where it seems the people are just promoting them a little over board i will end up going with another brand. Thanks
Great video, thanks for sharing!!! You show parts of the trail I haven't seen on other videos. Odd that you lacked a little traction with the Milestars at 43:40. Lite Brite and others have pretty good luck with them. I don't recall if you stated your air pressure?
Lite Brite is also sponsored by Milestar. The Patagonia is basically an aggressive all terrain. They will never preform as well as a true mud like a Cooper Stt Pro ect...
@@BullGearOffRoad jeeps are light,i run 10 in the s/duty..35,s.dick cepek,have a set of hurcules now.seem o.k,but mainly just for work..i have a set of 36x 15.5 x16,mtz.never needed them.
I ran 37x12.5x17 Milestar Patagonia MT's at 11 PSI on the Rubicon this past weekend and had zero issues with traction. Performed flawlessly. Awesome tire!
Never been to something like this; my son just bought a 2015 Willys 2 door and it’s all stock right now. I’d like to try this since he wants to build it into something like these rigs. Just wondered what kind of axles these guys have.......
Great video and nice rig. What rock crawler muffler, rock rails and fender flares are you running? Also, thanks for your honesty on the Patagonia's. I noticed the Cooper Discoverer STT Pro's on the rig in front of you gripping the granite and making quick work on several obstacles. I'll be there in 2020.
Thanks! we'll be there again in 2020 as well. I'm running the Bushwacker fender flares, Magnaflow OffRoad Pro Series Cat-Back Exhaust and the rock rails are stock.. I just cut them in the rear to fit my 38 inch tires. you can checkout the rest of the build here: revkit.com/bullyjku
@Mike Heaivilin Hire’s do you like the Jamboree compared to a normal fall weekend? Seems like a lot of LA freeway traffic for the comradery, spotting, and potential help.
Ya man I don't know about having someone every 3ft "spotting" me with 838 guys behind me would kill any fun for us. We go to get away from everyone, not bring them all. But great job filming.
may i ask where you got the no top brackets for the rhino rack? also who made the doors. just got back from the rubicon and need more storage for sure.
@@BullGearOffRoad man i have been trying to find those things for like an hour straight. thank you. so it feels sturdy mounted like that? think enough for a toof top tent maybe or to stand on?
Thanks for the quick reply. You’re based in California or Arizona? I’m in West Houston. It would be cool to meet up somewhere in between sometime and overland together....
Mike Heaivilin I’ve heard good things about those tires. I’ll look for your Jeep. This will be my 1st time doing the Rubicon Trail so looking forward to it!
I've watched this video numerous times now. I'll be there with my family in August, 2021 with Jeep Jamboree USA. Your video gives me a real world look at what to expect. Nice job.
Right on Rick.. we'll be there again this year as well. It's sure is a fun time!
I watched because you had the family. Loved hearing your young boy in the back seat. Nice family!
OMG that white Jeep in front of you is SICK! You should do more videos of him.
Awesome video! Just Jeeps runnin the trail without annoying music in the background!
the Rubicon is one of our favorite trails, we completed it our first time after only dating for 3 weeks! been back a couple times now and still loving it!
What a beautiful place!! Definitely on my bucket list items to take on this trail one day. Thank you for sharing you and yours family adventures!!

Nice job! Brought back great memories of my first trip through just a month ago!
Great video
Best Rubicon trail video I've seen, and I have seen a lot! Great job!
Awesome video. Wife and I are planning a build for the trail now. Great job. We mostly do mudding so this is entirely different.
Nice video guys ! Thanks
It was cool seeing you in Tillamook 2019- Maybe see you MOAB if you are there in October! Great Jeep
You did an awesome job filming this video- put me right there with you !
Great video! We especially like the part with our Snow Leopard from South Florida in it! LOL!
Esse foi o melhor vídeo desta que já vi.

Looks so fun :) great job guys
Your camera person was better than the "professionals" awesome job.
Fun! Thanks for sharing =) Super Swamper Bogger tires.
Beautiful setup

Ughhhh mannnn i absolutely love this...ypu guys r awesome post more lol
Definitely want to see a full walk around on this Jeep looks so rad. Awesome video

As a rule I HATE 4 door Jeeps.....but yours is bad ass. 👍
thank you!
Rubicons on my bucket list, those spotters provided by the organizers? Awesome vid, thanks for sharing!!
@@BullGearOffRoad thats awesome!! Thats a ton of trail knowledge right there, no one better to act as spotters!!
Was this all one Jeep club or just a large group that showed for that day?
This is a Jeep Jamboree event that Jeep puts on once a year that you have to sign up. More info here: jeepjamboreeusa.com/

Yes, we'll be back this year and can't wait.. It's our favorite off-road trip of the year.
cool video. How big of lift do you have? I am going end of june begining of july and have 3.5 inch lift with 35 inch tires and bead locks front and rear lockers
You will be more then fine. I’ve passed it with 35s and only one locker didnt struggle at all. It’s all about how you approach the obstacle

Tin Star just wondering I'm not going to do any suspension upgrades to my Rubicon
Lite Brite is also sponsored by Milestar. The Patagonia is basically an aggressive all terrain. They will never preform as well as a true mud like a Cooper Stt Pro ect...
Mike Heaivilin Lite Brite usually ran them at 8 psi (before they went to sticky’s)

How much tire pressure are they running on these machines?
What roto pax holders are those? And great video.
Beautiful video man! Thanks for sharing!!! Is that a go pro on your front bumper?
Just noticed you had a battle born Wayalife sticker in your tailgate. I’m also on Wayalife! What’s your tag name?
KICKROX is my tag name.
Never been to something like this; my son just bought a 2015 Willys 2 door and it’s all stock right now. I’d like to try this since he wants to build it into something like these rigs. Just wondered what kind of axles these guys have.......
Mike Heaivilin thanks I think this Jeep has the 44 rear and the 30 front axle. It comes Stock with 3:73’s and a limited slip diff in the rear.
Great video and nice rig. What rock crawler muffler, rock rails and fender flares are you running? Also, thanks for your honesty on the Patagonia's.

Thanks, the white one is mine. See you this year!
@Mike Heaivilin Hire’s do you like the Jamboree compared to a normal fall weekend? Seems like a lot of LA freeway traffic for the comradery, spotting, and potential help.
It is a lot of traffic for the Jamboree but it's worth it when you get to the camp site. Lots of cool people and the more the merrier.
Ya man I don't know about having someone every 3ft "spotting" me with 838 guys behind me would kill any fun for us. We go to get away from everyone, not bring them all. But great job filming.
I’d like to make this run, but I guess I’ll need taller rubber. I’m only running 32’s on my LJ
may i ask where you got the no top brackets for the rhino rack? also who made the doors. just got back from the rubicon and need more storage for sure.
@@BullGearOffRoad man i have been trying to find those things for like an hour straight. thank you. so it feels sturdy mounted like that? think enough for a toof top tent maybe or to stand on?
@@BullGearOffRoad thanks.. i looked on maximus-3 site and didnt see them. i emailed support and asked for part number or link.
What brackets are you using to mount your rack? Great looking setup!
Thank you, those brackets are from Maximus-3.
Your kickrox sticker and logo looks a lot like Kick Rocks Offroad’s logo lol
Hey Mike, nice video! By the way, what kind of video cameras did you mount to the front and rear bumpers?
Thanks for the quick reply. You’re based in California or Arizona? I’m in West Houston. It would be cool to meet up somewhere in between sometime and overland together....
Mike, where are you guys going to be in early August? I should be heading to Southeast New Mexico..
Well what tires were you running?
Mike Heaivilin I’ve heard good things about those tires. I’ll look for your Jeep. This will be my 1st time doing the Rubicon Trail so looking forward to it!
How many bone stock Rubicon's were in the group?
I don’t know if Jeep jamboree allowed anything under 35 inch tires back then. Now it’s nothing under 37inch tires
I want to ROCK...🤙
great video. what size tires do you run? do you have a spacer in rear?
38" tires, and no spacer in the rear.
@@mikeheaivilin6921 Thanks I have 37" on 3.5" lift. did you re gear? Im going 4.88 since I drive more than off road.
Never understood doing stuff like this with no doors on or arms all hanging out the windows.
SUBBED
Great video! How are you liking the Milestar tires for on/off road. I've seen mixed reviews about how fast they wear and noise even with rotations.
@@BullGearOffRoad I've been curious about that. thanks for the feedback.
You need a spotter for the now non existent gate keeper? C,Mon! You don't even need one for little sluice now it's a shame they wrecked the trail!
You made it didn't you ? Maybe you should air down your tires a bit more instead of dissing them
ok
55:40
1 armed spotter😂
Ok so I’m going to hell😞

Escape of the mall crawlers! The 1 time a year they actually half ass use their jeeps! Lol
Bought every bolt on Mod known to man...... Forgot Lockers..... Blames it on Tires...... SMH
16:30 where are they at, still in your garage?
Скучно как то , у нас всё намного веселее
I didn't sit through the whole video but I didn't see any older jeeps........just a bunch of cookie cutters straight out of the factory :(
