Tony, Love that the owner of a huge company that makes and sales 4x4 upgrade parts takes a budget YJ and puts minimal parts on it to show everyone that you don’t have to be rich to enjoy the trails thumbs up Tony!!!

I just wanted to compliment the entire GenRight crew for being such class acts on the trail. I was with Christian’s group (the GadZuks), and you guys were quick to help and even checked in on us on the second day at Buck Island, it was fun to leap frog each other along the trail and just see you all in this environment, being good stewards of the trail and excellent representatives of your brand and trail etiquette. Congrats on getting through Little Sluice in the YJ, that’s some impressive driving. Good on you.

So the CJ getting the front end fixed belongs to a Member of Gad-Zuks! SoCal based club. Broke a U bold that holds the front axel in place. Thanks to everyone that had spare parts and pieces to get it back on the trail. The Help of Welding and couple little tricks by the GenRight team that CJ ran perfect the rest of the weekend and made off the trail with repairs still intact. But our appearance didn't stop at that point, Glad we could crate a moment for you to talk about winching broken rigs off the trail. Old Cherokee Chef decided it was done at the bottom of Cadillac Hill. Few days later folks went back in with parts and got the fuel system fixed and it finished the trail.
Thanks again to Tony and the Team for the help. It was great seeing the YJ that you brought out work great all weekend as we manged to pass each other all weekend.

Tony, looks like you all had a great time and a fun adventure! Nice that you demonstrated even a small amount of money put in the right place can get you out on the trail successfully with friends!

Sometimes is fun to down grade a few notches and enjoy the challenge. This looks like jeeping at its finest! Great job, Tony and Genright.

[OffroadRated]

Awesome video, that looked like a really fun trip. Definitely need more this style out of Genright!

I hope this is an inspiration to anyone who wants to get out there and wheel!

I'm so pumped about getting my tracer suspension build started!

[jeepingadventureswithjoeki]

gotta love the Rubicon! Looks like you had a great crew with you.

[bruceklassen]

Really cool video, it’s great that the YJ made it

[TwoFeatherChannel]

Great time with a good bunch of folks.
How did those JT Gladiators do, did they do the hard obstacles?

I would do a leaf spring flop and use the stock Wrangler leaf springs they work awesome and leaf spring flop you get about 5.5 inches

[joshnasche]

Can't wait to fix up my YJ wangler and do the Rubicon trail 😁

[robertbradshaw]

You guys made a great video! The music was not obnoxious and you could hear what you guys were doing! Thank you

[MrAjc]

Tony was the part number for the bds 3inch springs. They (bds)want to sell me a 6 inch lift to clear 35s. Thank you Tony

I'm doing the Rubicon trail in my YJ, when I take my first trip west of the Mississippi

[NewWorldFilm]

Nice! Look up "old top gear jeepers jamboree" sometime. Also there's a MotorWeek video on the 1996 Jamboree that'll be of some interest. Stock YJs driven by soccer moms making it through the Rubicon Trail. A few upgrades certainly won't hurt. I'm just sayin', the YJ has done it stock many, many times.

[wrm]

Always cool to see Rubicon footage. But not much explanation of the YJ build to make it budget? Looked like maybe a D44 in the rear? Obvious lift springs. What else? All that stuff adds up and maybe not so budget to some?

The soup bowl that the main reason ppl go-to Rubicon trail
