Do the 'switched' accessories (wipers, radio, gages) also shut down?

Can't give you advice about the route, but enjoy the trip. Some years ago I took a cross country trip in my YJ and had a great time. Took the Point Sublime 4x4 trail in the north rim of Grand Canyon, took the trail over Hurricane pass in Colorado (a bit of white knuckle experience).

33s on the standard axles (he does not say it was lifted) are going to be a potential issue. At minimum sluggish performance, and could eventually damage the axles.

I think the hoops were put there to meet some bumper requirement, as the spare stuck out much more than the actual bumper. But they can be useful for attaching stuff.

There was a time when there were lots of jokes about the square lights, but now they've gotten a lot more respect. They're old, they've been around and paid their dues and have a bare bones no frills character. the square headlight jeeps on the trail are there because some real Jeeper kept them...

I still have my factory jack under the hood* (in case I need to use both), but the factory jack is a screw jack. Hydraulic is easier to use in my opinion, * Also have a toolbox under the hood. Can't do that with modern vehicles.

I use a hydraulic bottle jack (when not in my garage). It's been needed by Jeepers on the trail, but never by me yet. High lifts are a mixed bag. They can be helpful under some circumstances, but can be dangerous on unsteady situations. Years ago cars used to come with 'bumper jacks' which were...

here they are

Nice to find this place. I bought my 89 YJ 14 years ago after looking at Jeeps enviously for a long time, didn't know much about the models but I had a good sense of identifying a solid engine/transmission etc. Gradually fixed up the issues from the previous owner, drove it cross country less...

For 6 cylinder. Free for pick up. A shop was cleaning up, gave it to me.. doesn't fit my YJ.
