Yeah thanks for the heads up about miller jeep. Its alot of fun. I took this truck up lockwood creek to miller jeep bone stock with open diffs and no gears That was alot of fun. A little struggle here amd there but it made it right up. Id like to do it now with my locker and gears...should be alot more fun hehe.

this truck needs to be the banner truck for YotaTech

28inch tires + lockers + gears = more offroad capable than your body lift and 35s
