- A sick Jeep Cherokee climbing the exit on Carnage Canyon without a winch. Huge ledges on soft dirt made this something you have to see to believe.
Built and driven by TnT Customs
At first I liked this video... Yep, even though I'm a yota guy, I thought this was an awesome crawl. Then 5 guys started to tell the driver where to go, and in the end, when the XJ was about to tip, some guy was getting ready to brace themselves under it?! If it's going to tip, I don't want to be anywhere under it! Great job on the driver, but I'd hate to wheel with this group until they get more organized. The group I go with, each driver usually coordinates with 1 or 2 people to be their designated spotters, or if someone is already spotting, they stand back, only making suggestions to the spotter, not just randomly yelling at the driver. This can cause confusion, and can be dangerous. But that's just my $0.02
Lord I love XJ's. Beautiful.
As an off road lover, I like to watch videos about off road driving. I could not care less if it is a Jeep, an FJ, or a converted Prius. In this particular video, I was very surprised that the Cherokee made it through. That driver deserves the recognition. He did an incredible job. Excellent!
PS: The only thing that expressions like "It is a Jeep thing" or FJ's are not off road vehicles", etc. show is immaturity and ignorance. When you realize that there is more than one good thing in the world and the driver has a very big input on the outcome and that FJ's, Hummers, X-Terras, and even Range Rovers are also great vehicles for off road, you will start showing signs that you are growing up. Different people appreciate different elements. Each vehicle has a combination of weaknesses and strengths.
Guillermo Ramon xj's master race ;)
+Guillermo Ramon If you have the money, a Unimog is crazy, but its also huge.
+Guillermo Ramon Water covers 90% of the earth. Jeep covers the rest.
this cherokee right here has nothing in common with a regular cherokee anymore, except the look
You all are proving his point.
Good Job man, Its prolly tougher than it looks.
Awesome rig guys!! Very well built. First ever Rubicon bead lock wheels sooooooooo sick! Much props. You guys inspire me!!
It does have (selectable) ARB lockers front and rear. If possible, it helps to disengage the F/R locker for tight turns (which applies in this scenario). An open/open rig wouldn't make this trail.
Thanks for watching. flyier19
Nice driving and well built XJ. Gotta love all the comments about jeep better than toyota better than Hummer better than... shut up already. I could put $15,000 into a 1979 Subaru and crawl through Carnage. I think apples make better pies than oranges! Once you start modding a stock vehicle, it's a moot argument.
Yum orange pie
or just go on foot...
+Josh Cline Eh, I think with Jeep it's a little different, as it's more of a cultural thing as well. Hummers and yotas can be absolutely great(lord knows I could make a go-kart do the same thing with enough money.) and especially modded.. But from my experience in those communities, it's just not the same as the cultural implications that Jeep has in America. Of course, as a former service member, that vehicle culture holds truer to me than before, but once again, that's just my pref. I've seen yotas that could destroy me on a trail, and mad respect to them. But I am a Jeep guy. Something about my JK just keeps me coming back for more.
driven a jeep, been reading car books and manuals since i was 7, and you DONT NEED LOCKERS for torsional force to occur, it's kind of obvious that the thing isnt locked since the left and right wheel move at different speeds, tough guy
Rock climbing like this is extremely difficult so having spotters are ok so you don’t trash your stuff.
straight 6 will never lose
I'm surprised he didn't air down more, especially with beadlocks
Excellent, nice Jeep! Can't believe anybody would dislike this...
Yup that's why they call it Carnage, one of the best trails to watch people go through in person! I've got a good build on my tick but this is one of the only trails here I won't do, believe it or not this was one of the easier spots, your required to have a minimum of 35+" tires, front/rear lockers, spill kit, winch and roll cage recommend to even attempt it. The correct lines require body damage, I'm almost that build but no thanks I'll leave it to the trailered crawlers. Independence Trail is even more extreme.
I gotta bash on wranglers! But when I see a cherokee like this i give respect nice ride man.
Thank you. That was the coolest thing I've seen on youtube. Awesome video
if I didn't see it I wouldn't believe it, I'm impressed.
GOOD SHIT !!! NICE FOOT CONTROLE !!! AND NICE EYES ON THE SPOTERS!!!!!!!!
OUTSTANDING. People can bearly walk up that much less drive up it...SICK JEEP
SICK Driving Skills
"It's a Jeep thing. You don't understand!"
My God. Talk about having some faith in your spotter(s). Amazing line
Flyier is talking about the differentials, "open/open" means no lockers in the front or rear differential. This rig is locked in both diffs or it would never have made it this far much less out this "exit" route of Carnage Canyon near Buena Vista, CO. This trail is as hard as they come!
Sweet build, that was impressive!
OMG this is sooo awsome, now i get the whole off-road thing.
I have the same jeep with 324,300 miles runs great and another engine to put in for sale 2,000.00 obo. if someone needs parts, or building one. this video is awesome.good Driving.I was moving you from my livingroom.
XJ Wheelbase and Auto transmission FTW!!!!!1
Good spotting, and good driving! That's what you need when your out on the trails
awesome vid I truly enjoyed and understood it, not like an amazing number of people.
xj 4life!!!
thats a bad ass xj i cant wait to build another soon
That's a nice Xj
OMG Thank you man you finally proved him wrong, I thought maybe you had lockers but it wasn't necessary to use them, thanks a bunch man, you are awesome, have a wonderful day, and please disregard the rude remarks from itsmesomeguy,
cheers
How is that even a trail. That right there is a freaking cliff!
Those tyres got awesome grip .
That was pretty damn impressive.
holy effing SHIT! I was screaming at the end lol that was incredibly done.
nice. thats what i want my XJ to look like
SICK VID MAN THATS HOW YOU DRIVE A REAL JEEP LOL
Could I do this in a VW Polo you reckon?
Purchased a sweet TRD and put some 3-fives on it , So trails like this will be a breeze in the TRD . I'm installing a rear winch so I can winch the Jeeps without turning around . I'm also going to steal the Unlimited title from the Rubicon guys and add it to my Toys badging... Toyota.Unlimited.Racing.Developement...Should be the envy of every Jeeper on the trail this Summer .
Thats very impressive to say the least, no lockers, and still no wheelspin
this is more driver than actual vehicle
very good,video,this show how the jeep is the best car
Brendon, maybe you should go back to doing donuts in your two wheel drive and leave commenting on rockrawling vids to people that have an idea.
Sick jeep!!!!!
Buddy.. u r one of the best offroader i've ever seen .... Cant figure out how u can see where tyres r going as u got a LONG hood in front of u
Good stuff. Looks like a fun bunch to wheel with.
Nicely done!
uh I don't know what vid you are watching but this things fully locked
That's what I'm talking about!!!🤩🤩🤩
damn thats some smooth driving
I dig your rig!! Excellent.
It's not simply bored out, you have to swap a 4.2 crank in to gain the almost 1/2" stroke to add that much displacement.
How many spotters do you have there buddy? To many chiefs not enough indians! Nice little jeeper though! Great package!
nice built
That was amazing!! Is that a stock 4.0?
Since Jeep built one with a coil over solid axle front end and rear leaf springs. Trails like this will NEVER be a breeze in anything with independent front suspension especially a pickup. You would be lucky to get stuck on that obstacle.
I'm impressed!
Everything doesn't have to be action pack. Simple Jack. Comment below. Good job CJ.
Very impressive!
This is exactly why I'm selling my YJ , And getting either a Toyota TRD or a JK , Because the folks that 4x4 the Cheap Cherokees just bash their rides ...infact I can't recall one ever shining up the tires , waxing the paint , Or even Armor All-ing the dash ...They think having a dented up shoe box is trendy I tell you it was mighty embarassing rolling into the 7-11 for fuel , And having strangers ask us if we were ok , and if anyone got hurt and if we needed a tow truck for the wrecks .
..and the ol 4.0L never even overheated :P haha sick rig man
what kind of diffs are you running? wow! that was awesome!
this guy is like, FUCK THE PAINT I JUST WANT THIS THING TO CLIMB
Last time I saw an XJ on the trail it was pulling out a stuck 4 Runner at Uwharrie. Sorry but the only way a Toyota can even be in the same league as the XJ is if you dump 10 grand into a solid axle swap and suspension upgrades, but that time, you could have 2 XJ's on full widths, both of which would out wheel the build Toyota. All a frame is is something else to get hung up on a rock. A strengthened unibody will outperform every time.
Nice looking rig
nice video. and i love the jeep
Make sure you bring a box to put all the IFS parts in....
thumbs up for lockers!
Bravo,, 👏👏
is it me.🤔
or did the passenger look scared to death?
Damn I wouldn't have gone thru that, that's nuts
I have a 2000 Cherokee XJ with a 5.5 suspension Terraflex. It can get anywhere I need it to go.
Serious question: how many of those people standing around know what they are talking about?
very awsome rig, great vid man thnx
Lift?
great video, good wheeling
very sick! awesome job spotters!
he basically managed to drive up a straight stone wall lmao
Awesome video!! Can you give me the basics on the rigg like axles gears lift tires lol.
Nice job! That's one helluva trail. Time for a roll cage?
what lift and size tires he got
fine by me, I don't need to spend my time arguing with someone who clearly knows nothing about jeeps when I can spend hours talking with my best friend who has owned a Jeep for three years,
Have A Nice Life
lol... passenger looks terrified !
Awesome driving skills!! Wtg!!
i dont do cliffs like that anymore. i fucked my xj up good on a rock ledge like this. nice drivin
Since it has solid axles and an inline 6. I'm proud to say I drive a lifted station wagon, cheaper insurance. Do you have anything relevant to say?
Wow, that is hard on the bodywork:/
Nice job with that obstacle!! I just subbed your channel!! Cheers
Patience is always a safe bet, being locked front and rear didn't hurt :/
8 dislikes, must be the H2 and H3 crowd.
The driver is good.
cool bro, keep jeepin
truly unthinkable!!!!!!!
I like the Grand Canyon.
ikr, this trail is hard on 39" IRocks
Impressive, but I'm surprised you would run aluminum wheels for this kind of work. Wouldn't steel be a more reliable wheel? I had an aluminum wheel crack in two spots from stressing it in a situation much calmer than this.
what kind of sway bar setup is that?
***** it looks like an anti-rock style.
open diff's front and rear, as opposed to lockers.
Doesn't count. That guy in the black vest pushed the jeep up at the end.
You sound like my ex girl friend who talked the same smack about my own XJ, right down to the pokes about not having the "truck" designation on my plates. At the end of the day, its still a Jeep and its still still a relic from the 20th century that they just don't make anymore. Unlike those new POS's with the 4 doors that would get high centered faster on accident than I could trying to do so on purpose..
When you speak of "open/open" are you talking about the cooling system or what? Does this have to do with preventing overheating? Just curious.
what size tires/wheels are those? Looks perfect. Nice XJ man
nice vid I love my 92 xj has over 400,000 on the 4.0 runs great but the driveshaft went and took part of the rear axle with it im not an expert any advice on an axle swap would be great
has it been good to u or did u have to overhaul a bunch of stuff or "dump money" into it to make it road worthy
its been great had to replace the head gasket
once but its my fault for submerging the engine in water then driving it home
FORD 8.8, BIG AND STRONG, they are about 100 at a pull a part
