I've been in some pretty sticky clay in my time but my muds have never clogged up. I think the idea of the mud is the weight of the vehicle pushes the exesting mud out and grabs some new mud every revolution.. So it may APPEAR to be clogged but it is new mud every time it goes around. With an AT the mud does clog and cannot come out in the same way.

Want my son to have it someday, a long time from now, God willing. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/patriot.gif" alt="" /> Re: rubicon ready to off road stock?

If you live near me you will be wasting your money to paint the underside.. If there is salt on your raods in the winter or if you plan on driving on the seashore...it won't matter what you put under there...your son will only be handed a pile of rust!

How old is the son? Compute his age and go look at a few vehicles around town that are the age you are thinking of handing down at. I thought of doing that with a CJ I purchased new... When it came time the son wanted a camero!!! Big Jim <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> professional bovine relocation specialist Re: rubicon ready to off road stock?

I like that you can get it in spray cans. My dad buys a good amount of stuff from Eastwood once in a while...it's just good stuff. Re: rubicon ready to off road stock?
