Metal Masher Trail in Moab Utah with KL Young from Twisted Jeeps - 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5Kx2lB2WpE&w=640&h=360]

What a great day! Metal Masher is a Jeep Badge of Honor Trail, so make sure you check in if you are collecting badges. KL was a great guide... so thanks to you for recommending him, and thanks to Twisted Jeeps for allowing him to spend a couple of days hanging out with me!

Overall, I'd rate Metal Masher as a moderate trail, with some optional advanced obstacles. We didn't hit several of the big obstacles because there was just more risk for vehicle damage or breakage. I asked KL to keep things on moderate range of the "Easy - to - Extreme" scale. And that... he did. That's also why wheeling someone familiar with the trail is nice... they know where all the bad things happen. :-)

How To Fix Can't Load Android System Recovery Screen Seicane or Other Car Stereo Head Unit

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtyNu8R1Ri0&w=640&h=360]

So... yeah. This is a video I didn't think I was going to make. I honestly didn't think my first attempt to fix this was going to work. But, it did. So now I am catching you up.

Here's the screen that came up:

Can't Load Android System. Your data may be corrupt. If you continue to get this message, you may need to perform a factory data reset and erase all user data stored on this device.

Seems easy enough to hit that "try again" option...but there are no physical buttons on this device. Only soft buttons and a single reset button. Here's how I solved it.

Dodge Rebel RAM 1500 Diesel Testing at Hells Revenge in Moab Utah - Off Road Spy Video

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPhcLVr-p6Q&w=640&h=360]

Sorry Jeepers... consider this a commercial break. If you have watched my JL Diesel testing video, then you have seen this footage. As it turns out, the Dodge Rebel 1500 Diesel testing is more interesting to a lot of folks, so I broke out a separate video (at the suggestion of a subscriber) so truck folks don't have to watch all the Jeep footage to see the truck in action! :-) Now... back to your regularly scheduled program.

Shoutout to "Desert Speed Mafia" for the idea of breaking this footage out into a separate video!

ORO Tru-Turn Steering Stabilizer Relocation Kit Install - Jeep Wrangler JK - OffRoadOnly

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wAfs6i1JN5k&w=640&h=360]

Finally found my solution to relocate the steering stabilizer on OVERCLOCK3D. I've been running without one for several months... and even did the Colorado/Moab trip without one. A steering stabilizer isn't need to have a vehicle drive right...but it does help prolong the life of your steering components by dampening some of the high frequency vibrations and also protecting your gearbox from big jarring hits.

I found this at http://offroadonly.com/shop/steering/off-road-only-tru-turn-steering-stabilizer-relocation-kit-for-jeep-wrangler-jk-2/

Tru-Turn Steering Stabilizer relocation kit for Wrangler JKs moves the steering stabilizer from below the tie rod, and up to run along the draglink and attach to the frame at the driverside.

The welded bracket with the ears mounts between the factory swaybar mount and the frame with the moving end clamped to the draglink with our steering stabilizer bracket kit as shown below. This kit includes all the parts to mount a standard 8″ eye to eye steering stabilizer in this location, but does not include the stabilizer.

There is a spacer plate included to space the passenger side of the swaybar mount down an equal amount as the driverside for when a swaybar like our SwayLOC is used.

Even though I didn't use the drag link bracket from the kit... it was totally worth the purchase for that frame relocation bracket. Most people, however, will use the drag link bracket as well.

SPY VIDEO - 2019 DIESEL WRANGLER TESTING FCA JEEP JL AND JK AND DODGE TRUCK

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV9GpZpHz4U&w=640&h=360]

Sorry for the wait, but here's the video and some photo footage from out run-in with the FCA Engineers who were out testing the 2019 Jeep Wrangler JL Diesels. They also had a JK that apparently has had a diesel in it for a couple of years, and a full size Dodge pickup. I left the footage raw so you can hear them... we didn't follow them around to get video all day, but when we ended up bumping into them on the trail, I tried to grab video to share! :-)

Sorry for the watermarks...but people have been screen-grabbing and re-sharing my content and claiming it as their own. I don't mind if you share, but please at least give proper attribution to @o3djeeps! www.o3djeeps.com

Drew and Sean Struggle at The Car Wash at Hells Revenge in Moab - on Dual Sport Motorcycles

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlZDmhYMGYc&w=640&h=360]

This video is a little different than you are used to seeing from me. Sure you'll see a couple of Jeep running The Car Wash at Hell's Revenge, but this video is more about the guys on the motorcycles. We had so much fun!
