    Hi Dru,
    Would love to try out this Track on my stock JLU Rubi. Do you think it will make it ?

    Hi there! It was great catching up with you yesterday. This one is tricky - so let's start with, sorry Mt Airlie is not for you right now.

    That said - yes a stock Ruby will climb Mt Airlie. The problem is the risk of damage is high, and in particular the stock rock rails are just not up to the job at the rock step pinch point on this track. You WILL end up hung on the rock rails at this step, IF you don't ram the canyon wall. The risk of panel damage just isn't sensible on such a new Jeep.

    I'd suggest keeping an eye out for the following trails as you build your JL's experience:
    Spanish Steps, Moon Rock, Son of Bob: Newnes
    CPT80, Green's Break: Watagans.
    Mt Walker: Rydel
    Monkey Gum, Middle Earth: Yalwal.

    Definitely Yalwal.

    All the best guys!
