A friend with a 98 TJ wants to go, but he has 4-6 inches of lift, 33+ inch tires, lockers front and rear, and skids :/
Are the bypasses doable in a stock XJ, or would I still need skid plates (at the very least)??
(95 XJ, 4.0, Auto, part time, 29" tires, no tow hooks up front - receiver hitch hook for the rear)
TIA

There are many published reports of stock jeeps making it through but not really easily.
Two wheel drive Studebakers made the trip back in 1920:

Cool! They came stock with tall tires and buggy springs.
Yup, leaf springs just like the Real Jeeps use. God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O mailto: snipped-for-privacy@aol.com
In the 1.5ish years I've owned it, I've had it off road 4 or 5 times.
2 of those were TDS Safaris out by the Salton sea. Gorman / Hidden Valley is LOTS closer and just as fun (IMHO) ;-)AFAIK, it IS a class three hitch, but I'm really only basing that ASSumption on the size of the receptical...
