Taking on the Hammers with GRDLOC and The Trail Reaper
The Hammers in Johnson Valley is home to one of the most difficult land races on the planet, King of the Hammers. We decided it was time to test GRDLOC out on some of these iconic obstacles.
Teaming up with Scott Durkin, @TheTrailReaper, we tried our hands at Chocolate Thunder, Jack Hammer North, and the infamous Back Door. Featuring some awesome action from buggies and more.

The Over the Top reference broke me lol. Very cool video, Reaper is something else.
Awesome!
at a glance, I couldn't imagine that there were rocks where the Grdloc can't climb up. as we saw, the weight matters, that new rig jumped up easily on the gigantic rocks. love the Trailreaper LJ as well with it's 43'' MT stickies. but Grdloc is mesmerizing me!!!

The Trail Realer is just the perfect Jeep. By far my favorite rig I’ve ever seen. That’s exactly why I want to build an LJ. Geez.

Trail reaper is sickest jeep ever built period
In no way am I implying these trails are easy, and rigs are SWEET!!! But in all the videos I'm watching - the MT baja pro's don't seem to be all they're cracked up to be. Traction looks marginal at best other than at sand hollow, which anything grips well at sand hollow.
It would probably be way easier to do that stuff with a rig like that if you air down the tires

Itz Fishstick which rig you talking? Grdloc had 8lbs of air, reaper had 10 lbs and Jeremy was running water in his fronts
What kind of Beadlocks are on the trail reaper?
How come y’all don’t run RCVs in your axles vs u joints ?
@parkeryj3135
4 жыл бұрын
Jku Stockaphobia when you’re turning the axle doesn’t lose integrity. Your more likely to break ujoints at full lock but with rcv it’s the same strength everywhere

We have run RCV on builds and some do have them. We run YUKON super joints in GRDLOC because they are not a standard u joint they are a CNC chromoly joint that’s rebuildable and strong as hell and easy to maintain. Check em out

My 92 yj Jeep I understand , that’s why I was wondering why they don’t have RVC but instead they have the weaker u joints (at least at full lock like you mentioned)

The super joints are not weaker at full turn they keep their integrity 100% of the time.

RockstarGarage damn really ? That’s crazy So if they both equally strong how come go with the u joints? Ease of repair or what
Dammmmm. Yeah back door isn't a crawl, it is a rock bouncer hill. The buggy did it right and GrdLok will have to try another day

Thats what i thought. I’ve seen it crawled with ease. Yes during the hammers when its dug out. I wouldn’t believe it if I didn’t see it. It’s more of a wheelbase thing. Longer is better. Not saying these rigs are short.

In your cause 8 bolt fails b4 the spline does fail safely, which is good design. Your spline is harder than grade 5 or 8 bolt.

how come the axle splines don't hve a starter or actual key way to take the load & save the splines. The beg of spline could b 1/4 or 1/8 turn diff then rest or raised or lowered section or 3 key cuts then full spline. U don't want it so tuff u can't blindly line it up but still want key lock vs just 1 spline cut hits limit fail. If u hve 3 key way chances all 3 shear & leave u stranded is v/low, vs striping spline chance high esp in weaker spline set ups.
How imbarreing big BADASS looking silver jeep struggling to make it up Mine As Well get Groceries wit it LOL
