Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk Hemi (WK2) Off Road • Fun Run (Badge of Honor) @ Hot Springs ORV Park

Follow us on Instagram @funkywk2
Sorry it’s been so long since we added new content! This vid is our run up Buckthorn to G4 (up and back) to Fun Run (Jeep Badge of Honor trail). It was a ton of fun, but there was a point on Buckthorn where I got a lot more sideways than I wanted.
If you haven’t been to Hot Springs ORV Park in Hot Springs, AR, I’d highly recommend making a weekend out of it. They have camping and RV sites, and it’s just an overall good time. As it worked out, we were able to meet up with our friends from Illinois (SlickRock Offroad on KZbin) once again.
Mods at time of Hot Springs trip:
• 2019 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hemi Trailhawk
• Mopar factory skid plates and rock rails
• Offroad Animal Front Bumper & Hooks
• Offroad Animal Bash Plate (sump skid plate)
• Offroad Animal Hidden Winch Mount
• Offroad Animal Roof Rack
• Mastercraft Courser CXT’s LT275/65r18
• Smittybilt 12k X2O Comp Winch
• Hooke Road Hitch Skid
• VIAIR 300P compressor
The lifted JK in the video belongs to our friends and it shows a good contrast to the WK2 on some of the obstacles. Most of the video was shot by my wife, but some was also shot by SlickRock Offroad.

You've got a strong heart my man. Some section, I would piss my pants a little lol. Great video.

[@gspfunk]

Thanks!! Yeah, it was a little sketchy when I started sliding sideways. Wasn’t ready for that!

[@srtabc123]

Awesome video. Looks like you had great weather, in February when I went it was frozen solid and sleet so I could only do fun run. Once I get my lift kit I’ll go back and hit the other two badge of honor trails. Keep up the great videos.

[@gspfunk]

Yeah, we were supposed to go that weekend when the freeze hit, but we bailed due to weather. Definitely go back as it’s a fun park.

[@swissman20]

That was definitely a FUNKY trail...

Nice video

275/65r18 😱😱 Did you cut something or did you install a wheel spacer? And how is it do you enjoy this tire size or you would recommend to put 265/65r18? And may you put your tire in spire tire box? Thank you!

[@gspfunk]

There is just a little rubbing when backing up and at full lock. I do not have spacers or airlinks and I haven’t trimmed any of the wheel liner so far. 265/65r18 shouldn’t rub at all, so it’s the safer choice if your worried about it.

What is it with the lights flickering? I'm noticing it on a few other vehicles as well on other channels I watch.

[@gspfunk]

The video frame rate makes LED’s look like they’re flickering. I could have gone with 60fps instead of 30 and that probably would have made them look normal.

@@gspfunk ah ok...thank you for letting me know 🙂

@@gspfunk the LED lights on my 2018 WK2 Overland flicker when it’s in the off road modes. I’m sure there’s some issue with video frame rates too but the LED lights definitely flicker hard in off road modes.

What tires are you running on

[@gspfunk]

Mastercraft Courser CXT LT275/65r18. Stock wheels, QuadraLift, no spacers, no airlinks.

@@gspfunk in sport mode it doesn’t rub anything? And if you put entry/exit mode, will you able to drive just forward and back without turning the steering wheel

[@volodymyrprosov6134]

@@gspfunk and may you put your tire in spire tire reservoir? Thank you!

[@gspfunk]

It doesn’t rub in sport that I’ve seen yet. In entry/exit it rubs if you turn too much, but not just driving straight forward or backward. For the spare, I went with a 255/70r18. It fits, without the storage bins. The deck lid sits in the tire, but is raised about 1/2” or so. I have pics on my IG @funkywk2
