Default Jeeps first off road adventure

Not quite ready yet! Found that the exhaust pipe where it goes into the muffler, the muffler section actually broke out and every time i fill the fuel tank, that exhaust heats it up to the boil where the fuel starts to boil and builds up massive amounts of pressure in the tank so even the roll over valve and hoses are just misting all the fuel pressure

Found that out taking her for her first 4x4 trip up a nice mountain trail I enjoy going to visit during the summer and fall months.

Great news is, no other problems. Carb did perfect at 11,000 feet, brakes worked nicely, tranny and 4 low worked perfect. She rides like a very light weight tank but she'll squeeze into tight spots.

I was going to take it for the CO muzzle loader season but with us only having 1 elk tag, we need the atv's more so we can get in through the very small atv trails where some elk hang out now and then. Not a good elk area but a very enjoyable place to hunt deer and grouse.
