Come on, you guys. You really thought we would never go wheeling again? Well, we took a break from the 2020 Jeep Gladiator giveaway build to finally experience some wheeling in Washington! It's a different kind of off roading than west coast rock crawling, that's for sure!
Hope you all enjoy the video!

[@kaylamccall1051]

Thanks for a wheeling video! It's a nice break from the Gladiator build. It's nice to see y'all out on the trails and having tons of fun!

[@hooligantimes9132]

Back to the day job! Brushing off those spotting skills!

[@Ebact92]

Adult Kevin reminds me of high school me wheeling. Duct tape fixed everything and if it didn't we just used more.

[@trjnsd6874]

I carry an ammo can full of different tapes and adhesives for just such occasions...

[@jamesingram8836]

Nice to see you using the jeep again and really putting it to work , enjoyed seeing Kevin and you showing the trails

[@LaurieMB]

Great to see you wheeling again! But also loving the build videos. Just everything y'all get up to is just awesome.

[@aliciaclinton2512]

Knowing how big the Stepchild is really gives you a sense of just how big these obstacles are!! YAY wheeling!! My friend bought a sunrider and I was like "HEY!! I actually know how to install that!" so we are gonna do it hopefully in a few weeks for her. I love Nate! I follow his channel. Kevin said no...Cue Nate!! LMAO

[@FrancoisTX1974]

Back to Lite bright original videos...good job, love it.

[@jasonstrout4502]

You do know this was drifting channel before a wheelin channel right hahahaha

[@NotAMartian-1]

I love when I see nates jeep in your videos. 2 of my favorite youtubers together

[@cbreced1]

When you're trying to stay on a rock cranking full L or R and the rig wants to go straight, try turning off the rear locker to let your front end pull you into the turn. Might work, might not. Give it a shot.

[@toddgirard391]

Love video and love that you and dirt life was part of the fun. Awesome video much love from Texas I hope your both safe and well

[@jeepie1964]

In the Netherlands there is no more 1 event like this, you may not be together with more than 3 people and a distance of 1.5 meters between the people otherwise as your family. I really hope it will be better soon and we can have fun with the Jeeps. Corona is an annoying speller in this world. For your good health and beware of each other. Greetings Rene from the Netherlands. (The red hoodie of yours is still super :-)) (Throw a welding electrode in the jeep and bake the clip for a while)

[@willemconradie424]

Same here in South Africa. 4X4 lockup in storage now for 4 weeks already and i'm getting more frustrated everyday. Hope this C19 crab gets to a end soon. Greetings from Cape Town

[@cantwheelie525]

Thank you. I’ve missed seeing you guys on the trails!!

[@jimmierpadgettjr]

Thank god! I’ve been having withdrawals lol! I’m living vicariously through youz guys😉 I haven’t been wheelin in 5 years hopefully my next one is the gladiator diesel if they ever put one in it

[@john-okc450]

Kev - A shower curtain makes a good ground tarp for working around the jeep or camp. Waterproof, different thicknesses & colors, eyelets on one end, easily cut into smaller sections, makeshift changing room.

[@bobk5261]

Definitely need a few more inches 40 to 42s tires and keep up on the preventative maintenance on your jeep a good check over before going out would be a wise choice

[@760rudogg]

They have 40s on it now

[@bobk5261]

If so sits to low a few more inches between diff and ground is the real issue

[@robertmarez3195]

Awesomeness...great time with new friends...lots of new trails that the Stepchild has conquered....egarly waiting for the next video.....Safe travels

[@withintheglass2170]

Bad ass video!! New drinking game! Every time Brittany says “there ya go” when jelly is shown ADD BELOW!

[@VetJeeper]

Glad to see you got a chance to wheel in Washington! Hope you come back again!!

[@garybrewer6218]

Is there a way to like this more than once? I used to wheel up there when i served in the Navy. You guys are showing me for the first time the west loop. I helped plan and mark off that loop. Never got to see it when it got finished. That is awesome!!!

[@the_mountains_our_calling4809]

Finally some love for Washington's trails 😁

[@Bennett-xo6iu]

Another great video as always... I mean im glad that you guys are fixin up my gladiator and everything before i come get it in October but it is really good to see you guys offroading again.. Hey brit couple things ummm thanks for the lovely crotch shot when you was talkin about your seat covers lmfao😂😂 and where is it that you find the music or is this something you create when you add them to your videos the music is awesome just curious.. Love you guys stay safe out there👍👍😂😂👍👍..

[@LiteBrite]

I pay for royalty free music. 😊

[@Bennett-xo6iu]

@@LiteBrite well its awsome music so keep putting that in your video's😂😂😂😂

[@travismerrix4391]

Great video glad to see the step child out on the rocks again...... Glad to see y’all wheeling with dirt life styles aka Nate that Jetta tj is something else especially now with the sticky’s keep the great videos coming

[@ecranch7331]

Glad to see you guys had some fun. Got a shiny new Rock Krawler kit sitting on the table waiting to go in once hubby gets home from deployment. We're really looking forward to trying that puppy out.

[@michaelmurray2592]

That looked like some fun wheeling! Glad y’all had a great time with Nate. Much love from Louisiana

[@craigmefford6716]

Great video. Looks to be a great park to wheel. Where about is it in Washington? Great seeing you and your stepchild out on a trail. Be safe. 😷😁

[@wazzukris100]

It's near belfair Washington. Tahuya State Forest orv park

[@craigmefford6716]

wazzukris100 thanks. I live in Southern Idaho but have relatives in Eastern Washington.

[@wazzukris100]

No problem! It's a bit of a drive from Eastern Washington. It's over on the Olympic peninsula.

[@joshua420james]

"I should just pull the driveshaft and drive in front wheel drive is what I should do" starts gorilla taping it anyway lmfao that was gold

[@carpetmogul007]

Jesus!! At 837! Look all the rigs behind! This is AbsoFRIGGENlootly AMAZING! I love it!!

[@daveclark2256]

Glad to see ya having fun on the trails and in the rocks!

[@JLURBilletSilverMetallic]

Jelly Muddy paws and Claws !! Great video to help forget the pandemic apocalypse...love it !!

[@Dragonford350]

Miss my lil Wrangler, one day I'll get back into a jeep again. Until then, I'll love vicariously through you guys. Stay safe LBNation.

[@eldridgesmart5516]

AWESOME 👍🏾👍🏾. I just love the PNW. THANKS for the video 👍🏾👍🏾. Go with GOD & take care 😁

[@RyanRKJ]

That’s the kind of rowdy content we all love! 💕

[@jeffro8373]

That looks like some really good times!!! Brittany I don't know how you walk around on some of those trails 🤟😁🤘❤❤❤

[@trjnsd6874]

...just like StepChild she has a reeally good suspension...!

[@roseapple8786]

I can tell you missed wheeling. You'll got so excited and have happy smiles on you faces. Glad to see that you finally hit the trails and also did the rock crawling. Stay safe and keep on wheeling when you can. God Bless and be safe.

[@jeeb4x4]

Welcome back, Step Child! Your friend Foster Child is wild, but nothing can beat the Step Child! Not even monsterous boulders i Washington! Keep it on!!

[@Grumpy_old_Boot]

Kevin! Kevin She said everything is better on 42's !! …. wait … _that's what she said !!_ … OMG ! 😲🤣

[@xandercheney2277]

Awwwwww. COME ON MAN!! I wanted to see some breakage!! **WINK WINK** Next video?!?!?!

[@LiteBrite]

Soon. Haha That happened a week after this trail. 😁🤙

[@ddavismt]

THAT'S what i'm talkin about!!!! Welcome back!!!

[@autovice7689]

The Stephchild is a BEAST!

[@aidanwheele6337]

“He relocated it to his hands” Had me dead 😂😂😂😂😂

[@zanemeyers164]

That hemi sounds so good.

[@jamesrahn2065]

I have had a jeep with us with similar ujoint issues he had onboard welder so he tack welded the caps into yoke... Trail fix if ya got the onboard welder

[@PhatboyHD88]

Nobody can tear up a driveshaft like the stepchild lol... i just put a brand new front shaft in my jeep yesterday.. feels like a brand new jeep now😂😂😂

[@jeremiahjohnson9942]

We fixed the same problem you had one time when we where four days into a 7day backcountry trip with JBweld-it quick drying epoxy. Mixed some up plopped it on the yoke let it dry for 20min then turned drive shaft 180 degrees and did the same thing on the other side. It held up for the rest of the trip plus the 1100 mile drive home.

[@tonybrown6775]

The flex of the Jeep is cool the rock run is sweet

[@sprather84]

Wow new to the channel had to subscribe you guys have great energy and make Amazing vids 👍🏻 cool music too GREAT VID 💯

[@LiteBrite]

Thanks!

[@adammonaghan2901]

West loop gate keeper can be done on 31’s and open carriers. Ask me how I know ;). Lol 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@DirtbagsMTB]

Super stoked you guys got to get out and play! Looked like you had a buttload of fun!

[@bdevereaux]

Hey Britt & Kev. Any plans for doing the Jeep Jamboree? My father did it when I was young in a '93 Jeep YJ I never got to go since he figured I would be too scared. Side note; I hated that jeep for rough it rode but it was amazing off-road which was how I first learned to drive. Loved wheeling ever since.

[@LiteBrite]

Depends on how the whole virus thing pans out. We’ve been to a Jeep Jamboree before and plan on going to more, just not sure about this year

[@stkiswr]

I gotta say, wheeling like how the video starts...expect to break things left and right. Slow and steady saves that money 💰

[@michaelhalstead64]

Sometime, will you guys compare and contrast the rock krawler and metalcloak suspensions?

[@LiteBrite]

We can but there is no comparison since the RK is a long arm and 3 link the whole dynamics have changed. It wouldn’t be fair to Metalcloak. A more fair comparison would be the gladiator with RK vs MC on the JL but even that’s 2 completely different kinds of builds since one is over land setup and one was a rock crawling setup. If you have specific questions I’d say to call rock krawler and talk to Jeremy and call Metalcloak

[@michaelhalstead64]

Lite Brite true. Fare enough. I was watching trail to sema and realized that was still the metalcloak with 6 paks. Your up travel was insane which just made me wonder how it compares. But you’re right, a long arm 3 link probably isn’t comparable.

[@LiteBrite]

We have the same up travel as there are other limiting factors before the shocks come into play. We have more down travel now with the same up travel. All around the Jeep is way better now. I can go fast through Offroad areas without shock fade. The 6 paks were great but would shock fade with how heavy our JEEP is and just couldn’t keep up with the demand of the hemi

[@michaelhalstead64]

Lite Brite makes sense! Interesting. I forget how much heavier that thing is. I rewatched the hemi build Friday. It will be a couple years but I’m definitely doing that as soon as my JL is paid off. Stay safe!

[@Tanner731]

you guys need more gear reduction like the rigs with 2 toyota t cases or a doubler box, not sure what they make for the JL yet but if you could get just a little more gear reduction with the transfer case itd just creep up things

[@RyanRKJ]

Tanner I’m sure a transfer case upgrade will happen eventually. Kevin has mentioned wanting one in several previous videos.

[@onefastcyclist]

Great rock crawling video! Drama with swing axels and carnage while the rocks shift. However, around11:26, Dirt lifestyle presented the best argument for electric/cable activated lockers I've seen.

[@craigkim5995]

I love following your channel and seeing the evolution of all your mods. I'm probably going to pull the trigger on a JLU Rubi end of this year - any OEM options that you wish you had/hadn't ordered? Looks like hardly anything is stock on your jeep anymore but wondering if you just wouldn't have bothered on some things (stock steel bumpers?) or should have gotten (leather seats?). Thanks and keep pumping out these videos! :)

[@LiteBrite]

You can save the money on the steel bumpers and just go aftermarket (although the factory front steel bumper is pretty darn solid, the rear one is garbage and will damage the paint on body). We prefer cloth seats for comfort in extreme weather, but that’s just a personal preference.

[@lphanoo7]

You should put video cameras under the Jeep. I've got my Toyota setup with multiple cameras to help me see what's going on under there. I am also running hydraulic rams for control arms on my experimental crawler. Build in progress. It'll be ready to wheel by this summer.

[@trjnsd6874]

3:30 - Brit! Stop it, or my wife will never let me watch again! 8:42 - "I'm gonna put you up on a big pointy thing." !! 15:05 - The growl from StepChild's Hemi and MagnaFlow exhaust is just visceral music! Nate's diesel is a beast too. Another great wheeling video - I never doubted you for a minute. Better start carrying spare drive shafts. (I'm replacing my front one tomorrow). LiteBriteNationGetsShafted!

[@jamesbarber9852]

Glad to see you guys out wheeling again! Just looks weird seeing you guys on trails that I go to! Wish I could have gone with you guys! Great video!

[@obliquetew]

Now you need to come try Eastern Washington. Way better deal. Hit us up anytime and we’ll make it worth your while.

[@jaromwolcott4493]

Nice to see you wheeling again. Great video!

[@mattkunz9436]

Rear locker=optional. Govebox=important. Nate looses 2 revkits for improper glovebox maintenance.

[@mikeruthantisdel5679]

Kevin those angles turns you deal with has as be got to be some of the freakiest feelings

[@PWlangford1]

Looks like a fun group. 🇨🇦

[@bladenrexroth2555]

Might of save money by using Volvo portal axles. They come with air lockers and will keep the driveline out of harm's way. Could of had them a 1/4 the cost.

[@danhambrick6331]

Man Kevin is hard on driveshafts.That XJ is a beast.....

[@philiphannum4211]

Who was the other KZbinr? I didn’t see a link in the about area. Wonderful video guys. Loved every second.

[@michaelharris1455]

That is Nate hiz channel is Dirt Lifetyle. Neat guy, neat channel.

[@LiteBrite]

Nate with Dirt Lifestyle

[@dmelson7502]

You all really screwed up here. Your intro to this finally going wheeling again video should have been a 30 second to one minute Montage of the stepchild bumping over curb stops in the mall parking lot.🤣

[@mohammadbinbishr5167]

Cool 😎 Keep up the great work 👍

[@darrenporter1347]

First. You guys rock. Keeping me sane from a Locked down South Africa.

[@myytchannel6632]

Beautiful video. You guys really beat up that Jeep. Keep safe out there.

[@ralphjames4907]

Scary but looks kinda fun...

[@kenmarapese9085]

Liked the XJ, single purposed!

[@CombinationMadness]

Great vid! Watching you guys wheel at places like this keeps making me not want to start with 35s and just jump straight to at a minimum 37s lol good to see y’all hitting the trails again

[@RyanRKJ]

Peter Rosario build it right. Build it once.

[@jasonw4533]

Woo hoo finally wheeling again!

[@cesarquintanilla1264]

Good to see you wheeling again. Keep safe. And good video.

[@dwizl7213]

Finally pulled the trigger on a set of 38" Patagonias. Love them on road, Offroad...not so much though. I found myself struggling on obstacles that I've done countless times before without issue at Rausch Creek. I don't think they fair well on east coast terrain...not LiteBrite, down south East Coast but the real East Coast. Unfortunately decided to go back to STT Pros & sell the Patagonias. To my surprise, when I posted them on FB Marketplace, there were dozens of listings for barely used, like new Patagonias within a 40 mile radius. Something about that compound or tread just doesn't like East Coast rocks.

[@LiteBrite]

We’ve been to AOP and wind rock and didn’t have issue. What pressure are you running. We seem to have great luck at 8 psi. At 12psi not so much. I’m sorry they aren’t working out for you. We have wheeled them all over and have yet to make it up, over and through anything

[@RyanRKJ]

I’ve seen a few videos where the Patagonias were struggling in wet east coast trails as well. The Nitto Trail and Mud Grapplers seemed to have an edge.

[@iwheelhard469]

Ask any East Coast based Jeep club & they would've saved you the trouble. They really don't do well in the North East. I'm a Rausch local, live 20 minutes away. I can't tell how many rigs I've seen in the past 2 years come through on Patagonias, have a rough day & come back a month later on different tires. You need a true M/T here & Pats are more of a hybrid. Rocks here are definitely different & more slicker than what you'd wheel out West.

[@NETDPTMTT]

From 4:00->4:12 Britt’s nervous laugh .. lol

[@getlosttoday4045]

Hey LB! Have you ran into any of the new diesel jeeps on the trails?

[@rockandroad4x4partsaccesso36]

There you go

[@calvinh.8882]

Sweet! Glad to see you two out having some fun. lol.

[@nathanwoten6236]

15:40 - 16:00 nothing better than the sound out a HEMI..... ok well a 12V CUMMINS (well any cummins lol)

[@dalefechner6162]

I watch almost all of your videos and it’s good to see you guys out on the trail again.

[@mufflerbearingR32]

A TDI Jeep! Awesome!

[@smokiebaer]

This is the video I've been waiting for. Hope you enjoyed our PNW.

[@Winch_Offroad]

I watched the other video from Washington and you MUNCHED your Drive Shaft. I think it was called the Ramp or something like that. Nice Video Guys, hey do you ever watch other KZbinrs videos?

[@LiteBrite]

We do. The video you’re referring to was a different trail and area (we haven’t released our video on it yet 😊🤙)

[@skytiger6671]

Lisa words MATTER !!

[@danielgallihugh1688]

I like watching you build my gladiator but really enjoyed the wheeling again.

[@KenSiefert]

Very concerned when you were behind Jeep with camera as Kevin went up the steep loose boulders punching throttle ... glad you are safe

[@TheJoshrug]

Haha good stuff! Now we got the backstory.......makes more sense now the whole twisty wisty thing:)

[@jean-christophe27]

Hello from France Maybe once in quebec I would come to visit you for a 4x4 outing Good continuation

[@timbergen8526]

Looks like you will need an new front passenger side tire soon.

[@LiteBrite]

Nah, still a lot of tread left

[@scottb5523]

Wheres the explanation about the twisted driveshaft though the muffler? :) Maybe next video..

[@LiteBrite]

Yeah, that happened on a different trail about a week after this one

[@badgerpa9]

I was waiting for the next part when you go front wheel drive for economy. Glad you are all safe and healthy.

[@LiteBrite]

That’s coming soon! 😁

[@codefresh9411]

How do I get entered into the jeep gladiator give away?

[@kevinharkness879]

Ask and you shall receive!!! Great video to watch while quarantined. Thank you.

[@jim9win]

Where did you get your gas can for your spare tire
