    Nice lil adventure! Hope the trailer didn’t get soaked inside.

      We had a great time. The trailer is actually pretty water tight. No noticeable water inside.

    I hat year is the LJ? Curious how it has a 3.6 v6 in it. Never mind. I guess if I would have kept watching the video before I commented I would know. 😂

    I have an 2004 Jeep TJ Rubicon with 33s and 4.10 gears. How do you think my rig could handle a small 12 ft.
    scamp?

    • @thomasolek8836
      @thomasolek8836  3 года назад +1

      I think it’d handle it well. Our Jeep has stock 3.73s and 35s and it handles well although we have the 6 speed manual.

      When we start planning for a trip we use Gaia gps app and trailsoffroad.com to plan. These trail were found on trails off-road in the Ozark national forest. Enjoy

    What’s the Max weight trailer you would pull with the LJ? Looking to get a small travel trailer to pull behind mine.

      Do you have manual or auto and is it stock tire and stock gearing?

      I’d say we’re right around 1500-2000 lbs loaded up and on 35s it pulls and handles well without trailer brakes.

      @@thomasolek8836 Thanks for all the trailer towing info. I have an LJR 6 speed. We plan to get small offroad camper in the near future so I was wondering how it was going to handle the trailer.

      That’s our good friend Nick! We cooked a bit on the engine on the way home, just above the intake and the exhaust manifold.

    What’s the model of the Scamp trailer and do you know the weight?

    • @thomasolek8836
      @thomasolek8836  3 года назад +1

      It’s a scamp 13, ours is a little custom with the extended frame and front basket. It’s roughly in the 1500-2000 lb range and the LJ handles it well.

      It’s a super fun rig. She’s in need of a little repair at the moment. 😉
