Nice, you should do Daniel next. It's real treat. Haven't been out there in years but I'm planning on taking the JT out there

Just did Dickey Bell, JTR stock height, 35"s 23 psi. Like you, I went bottom to top-left then right up the climb. I was further right than you, almost to the guardrail. High centered, bad. (I am probably on You Tube somewhere because it was more important for people to video than try to help.) Ended up running a line and pulled myself the bit that I needed.
Loaded, RTT full camp gear. When I measured before leaving on the trip I had lost 1.5 inches of ride height. Rained, truck full of wet everything. So, after the difficulty and back on the flat shop floor at home, I had lost a total of 3" of height. That extra 1.5" might have made all the difference.
Home safe, life is good.

glad you and the Jeep are safe. There are some spots that it really helps to have a spotter. Bummer no one helped you out.

I’m on a 2.5 AEV lift which is over 3” in reality. Only had one scrape on the way up

Angus, you had plus 3" and I had minus 2". I am pretty sure that unloaded I would have been fine.
