Mud Slinging Jeep in Hawaii

Mud Slinging Jeep in Hawaii

A Mud Slinging Jeep in Hawaii sure looks like fun. This recent video records it all including the mods made beforehand.
These include brakes, wheels, tires, re-drilling the rotors to take other Jeep wheels, and fitting lightbars.
If you were to be on a trail like this a lightbar would be as must, plus being LED would be much kinder on the battery than fitting driving or spot lights.

First modify your Jeep to handle the conditions, as rain in Hawaii will soon have you pushing the traction boundaries as it quickly turns any track into  thick red slippery mud that can mean almost zero traction, and a vehicle that will go where it wants, not where the driver wants it.
If that’s not enough then lets add a bit of rock climbing to keep it interesting.

However isn’t this what Jeeps excel in – when the going gets tough the tough get going. And if at first you don’t succeed, then try and try again as this was a real challenge
An interesting video including some magic scenery and a story that is a bit different to most.

Have to take pity on that poor Jeep engine, just listen to those valves bouncing,
or is a rev limiter? I think it is a limiter, what do you think?
