The Cinder Hills and Grand Canyon in Jeep JL Wranglers on Nitto JL-Experience JLX REUNION Part 4

The final days of the JLX would be one that took us to the north, all the way up into Utah and then back into Arizona again. Along the way, we'd get to play in Cinder Hills near Flagstaff, go for a hike through Antelope Canyon and learn about the Navajo culture at a fine dining establishment called, "Into the Grand". Before reaching the Bar 10 Ranch, the end of our thousand mile Journey, we would also get to take a quick trip through Zion National Park and stare down the steep canyon walls of Toroweap. We hope you enjoy our 4th and final episode of REUNION and we'd be grateful if you could LIKE it on KZbin and share it with a friend. Thanks for watching!
The first annual Nitto JL-Experience was presented by KMC Wheels. A SUPER BIG THANKS goes out to Mel and Lisa Wade for inviting Cindy and I to be a part of this epic adventure. Of course, none of this would have been possible without their awesome support crew and you might know them better as Greg Melacon, Harris Wells, Kelly Carter, Cory Peterson and Randy Byers. Sponsors of the JL-Experience and their drivers included Tom Allen from PSC, Justin Mclean from JKS, Dave Schlossberg from Synergy, CJ Breaux from Tactical Off Road and Loren Healy from Nitto. David Brumbley was the official videographer of the JL-Experience and Ali Mansour filmed the event for Nitto's Driving Line. Last but not least, a special thanks needs to go out to George, Mandy and Wyatt for opening up their property to us.

It's almost 7 in the morning here, in Spain. In a while I have to go to work, but I must admit that I am excited after seeing some of your videos and, more specifically, this series of JLX composed of 4 chapters. Thank you for transmitting your joys, your camaraderie, the feeling for what your group has shared, the landscapes, the routes ... As you say in the epilogue, it is not only Jeep, but a way of life. Thanks to all of your friends and, of course, to you, Cindy and Eddie, too. From Salamanca, Spain, my recognition of your work.

Wayalife if you haven’t considered it maybe you could have a subscriber contest or drawing where the winner would get to attend something like this. Thanks again for all your solid advice, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve referred to your videos for an install of some sort or another. Never really work on anything mechanical prior to owning my JLUR and so far I’ve put my own lift on (Mopar), relocated my steering stabilizer (Metalcloak), added rear shock skid plates (Rancho), and rear and front skid plates (Metalcloak). I feel so accomplished because of this and again your videos are so inspiring and help the average joe like me “build his Jeep”. Thanks again!

[@wayalife]

Well kudos to you for doing all your own work! That's so awesome to hear. As far as trips go, this was the JLX and we simply attended it. We do however post up runs on our forum, WAYALIFE.com and we open it up to everyone. In fact, we're doing a big New Year's Kick Off Run the first weekend of January and we've got about 35 rigs signed up to come.
