2009 Jeep Rally Program - at Great American Jeep Rally

WELCOME TO THE 8th Annual
GREAT AMERICAN JEEP RALLY
On behalf of the organizers and volunteers, thank you for your continued support of the GREAT
AMERICAN JEEP RALLY. By supporting the Rally, you are also supporting the Northeast
Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs (NEA4WDC), and our charities for this year: Educational
Resources for Children, Inc. in Enfield, CT and the Ellington, CT Volunteer Fire Department.
We are very proud of the time and effort set forth by Jeep and 4x4 enthusiasts to further the
preservation of our sport along with maintaining the cleanliness and safety of our trails.
The purpose of this rally is not only to raise funds for very special charities and the Northeast
Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs, but to also raise awareness for the cause of offroading.
Public and free trails throughout our region are being closed at an alarming rate!! Educating not
only other wheelers, but also the general public is essential. The clubs joining forces with its
members and associations forms a strong voice to stand up and fight for our sport. Please
respect each other, and please respect the trails.
This rally has been put together only by volunteers, through planning, hard work and a lot of
time. We would like to thank all those who helped, as IT COULDN’T HAPPEN WITHOUT
THEM.
Distinguished thanks to Steve Miller of Miller Designs for the website. Hinckley
Construction, Slanetz Construction and Bradway Construction for the equipment and rocks.
John Davis for the new T-shirt artwork, also seen on this programs front cover. Scott Jones for
being our great DJ.
We are also extremely grateful to all of the volunteers here today to make sure the rally runs
smoothly for all participants and that a fun filled day is had by all. They are wearing safety green
staff shirts, so please feel free to say hello or ask any questions.
Come on over, stay for a while and have a look around. There’s a lot of fun to be had, from the
Rock Garden to the RTI Ramps. Enjoy the food and stop by some of the vendors to find about
not only their impressive array of products, but to also learn how to do your next modification.
Do you want to wheel, but don’t know how or where? Drop by one of the 4x4 club booths and
find the right fit for you. The best way to wheel is with new and knowledgeable friends!
DON’T FORGET YOUR RAFFLE TICKETS!!!!
Proceeds of all raffle
ticket sales go directly to Educational Resources for Children, the Ellington, CT Volunteer Fire
Department, and the NEA4WDC.
Thank you and enjoy the Rally,

effectively despite exposure to multiple and sometimes severe risk factors.
Resilient youth are characterized by their social competence,
skills, autonomy, and sense of purpose and future.

Increase community support for education: Studies of after-school
programs have proved that if families and other community members
are engaged in activities in schools, their commitment to their children
and to public education increases.

Increase collaborations that address intractable community issues:
Best practices after-school programs are result from active collaborations
among schools, town agencies, community organizations, and families
who work to prevent the risk factors faced by many children.

Increase involvement in community service projects:

Introduction to Rock Crawling
Rock crawling is a favorite past time of many wheelers. Some will drive for days to hit the best rock crawling
in the country, and some pretty gnarly competitions have sprung up over recent years. Below are some
driving tips for rock crawling.
The sounds of whacks, scrapes and crunches are sounds that make the typical mall crawler wince. Real rock
crawling is not for the faint of heart. If you loathe these sounds, find a different place to wheel. If you’re
good at it, you’ll hopefully keep these sounds to a minimum.
First of all, nothing is a substitute for experience. As you gain experience, you also gain judgment, which is
the key element in rock crawling. Also, it helps to know the capabilities of your Jeep before hand. Learn the
clearance and wheel placement of your Jeep.
Jeep Upgrades
You really want a vehicle properly set up for this. Stockers have a greatly increased risk of damage when
crawling due to their low overall ground clearance and inadequate tires. You want the proper modifications to
your Jeep to ensure greater capability and durability. Everyone likes to drive home in the same Rig they left
home in. Consider the following for your Jeep.
 Suspension Lift: A suspension lift gets your chassis further off the ground by combining the height
you increased your suspension. Additionally, a lift can allow the fitment of larger tires. Therefore, you
also gain half the increased tire height towards clearance.

Aggressive Tires: Bias Plys are even better due to their increased off road strength over a radial.
Radials can be notorious for sidewall damage. You should run a durable 3 ply side radial on as narrow
a rim as reasonable to minimize sidewall exposure to the rocks at all air pressures. The narrow wheel
also better protects the bead on the rim. Consider aggressive all terrain tires or mud terrains, as they
usually have more aggressive tread to grip the jagged edges of rocks.


Stiffer Shocks: Vehicles lose ground clearance under critical components as the suspension
compresses. Driving off that ledge with lumpy rocks below often ends in slamming the Jeep down on
the front skidplate or cross member, or worse. Shocks with stiffer valving, or best of all, adjustable
shocks on their stiffest setting in front and softest in rear will work well and help protect the
underside of the Jeep from nose diving and doing damage.

Skid Plates and Sliders: The stock sheetmetal skidplate cannot usually take a real pounding. Either
build or invest in a full belly pan for the Jeep. It’ll cost you, but it pays for itself in saved damage and
piece of mind. Steel of 3/16” or better should be used, as anything thinner doesn’t support the weight
of the Jeep well. Quality plates can be obtained from Skid Row or and their resellers. The day will
come (if you REALLY rock crawl) when that aluminum T-case gets split wide open on a boulder, or
the auto transmission pan gets crushed. A quality rear diff skid is a good idea, and some do one better
and truss the axle at the same time. Look for one that hugs the diff as closely as possible as not to
hinder your ground clearance that bad. Sliders save rocker panels and can allow a vehicle to skid
around a rock instead of smashing sheetmetal on it. Stock step bars are NOT up to this task and will
cause more body damage than the rocks in some cases.

Steering Mods: Anyone who wheels extensively knows the stock steering doesn’t always hold up
well to extreme use, particularly when lifts and larger tires and rims are added. Unless you like going
to the parts counter and coughing up $150+ for a new tie rod every Monday, you’ll build or buy one
of the steering solutions out there. Whatever you choose, keeping as close to stock geometry is
critical to the handling and safety of the Jeep, particularly on the way to the trailhead. It’s expensive,
but pays for itself in stock parts fairly quickly.

Sway Bar Disconnects or Sway Bar Removal: Those things hinder flex. Removal of that front
sway bar, or use of disconnects allows wheels to act truly independent of one another and will allow
you to keep more wheels on the ground, increasing traction. If you run without a sway bar on
pavement, beware of the different driving characteristics of your Jeep. You will have increased body
roll and less stability in cornering. Stiffer torsion bars and shocks help, but the point is to drive
accordingly. If you’re a canyon carver, leave it on.


Traction Devices: A locker enables forward progress in much more off camber situations when
crawling. A rear helps the most and can more easily handle the stresses a locker can place on axle
components. If you already have a rear, you can run a front as well. Use it sparingly, however, as it’s
difficult to steer the Jeep anywhere but straight with it engaged and greatly increases the risk of
breaking something in the front. Don’t bother with a front locker if you don’t have a stronger steering
upgrade. Air lockers are among the most popular aftermarket options.

Recovery Equipment: Any recovery equipment can be helpful when you get in too deep or have
breakage. Winches are best IF you have something to use as an anchor. That can be hard to find in
the desert unless you got a buddy with you. Other things to have are a Hi Lift jack and bumpers
strong enough to handle one, straps, shackle rings and tow hooks. Come-alongs and chains are also
useful. Large blocks of wood can be used as jacking platforms, chock blocks, or to fill in a hole or be
a ramp on the trail.

Spare Parts: Pack spare steering components, and if you have them, hubs, CV axles, tire plugs, a full
set of sockets and wrenches, jumper cables.

Lower Gears: In rock crawling you’re better off the slower you can go. The lower the gear, the
greater the amount of torque you can apply to your wheels. This is especially helpful if you’ve
thrown larger tires on your Jeep. With proper gearing, even a four cylinder can turn the bigger rubber.

Driving Tips



www.hi-lift.com



Driving slow is the key to keeping the Jeep and
you in one piece in the rough stuff.
Select the lowest gears possible and run in low
range.
Obey your spotter (refer to spotting tips section
below).
If wheeling alone, get out of the Jeep and pick
your lines before you tackle them.
Keep tires on the high spots. If a rock looks too
tall to straddle, look for alternate places for your
wheels while keeping the Jeep on as level ground
as possible. That’ll keep you from smacking the
undercarriage.
Be careful when driving off the large rocks.
When the suspension compresses you can whack
that rock with the rocker panels.
Rock crawling with a clutch can be challenging. Rock
crawling really favors the automatic equipped Rigs.
Particularly with the high stock low range gearing, a
manual transmission equipped Jeep can be a handful.
You’re limited to slipping the clutch badly to go slow
enough and power over an obstacle, or letting the clutch
out and lugging it through as slowly as possible. The
latter forces you to go through at higher speed, so you’d
better have your line carefully picked out and not fear
bumping a bit. (see skid plates section above)
(Continued…)
16
Automatics give you the benefit of a torque converter, which mimics the effect of having lower gears by
multiplying the torque. Also, there’s no popping the clutch or lugging it down to the point the engine dies.
One disadvantage to the auto when crawling is the heat that builds up in the transmission. This will shorten
its life and in some extreme cases, can cause failure. Running an auxiliary cooler helps. Manuals can smoke
a clutch.
Driving steadily without heavily gassing the Jeep is best. You’re in a high traction situation. Punching the
gas when you are in low range and up against a large rock can easily cause breakage. Accelerate and power
over obstacles as gingerly as possible.
Be sensible. Your Jeep isn’t going to drive up that four-foot shelf. Drive within the means of you and your
vehicle's ability. Know when you’re getting in over your head. Wait until your confidence and ability
improves over less challenging stuff before really going for it. It can damage your Jeep and can also get you
hurt. Wear your seat belt!
Spotting Tips






Let the most experienced in the group do the spotting.
Use only ONE SPOTTER if going forward. If in a situation where the person needs to back off and
try again, another behind the vehicle can be used.
Be sure you understand basic hand signals. A good spotter uses two hands. One hand to wave
forward or to give a sign to stop, and the other to indicate left or right. Figure this out before
attempting the obstacle.
Keep your window down and shut the tunes off so you can hear what your spotter is telling you.
Trust your spotter and do what he tells you to do. He's directing you that way for a reason.
Have everyone else SHUT UP. Two or more people yelling at the driver telling him what to do gets
confusing and frustrates the driver and the spotter who the driver should be paying attention to.
If spotting someone while backing up, be sure to stand where you can see the driver's face in the
mirror.
Conclusion
There are hundreds more tips people can offer on this topic, and most are founded on their experience. First
time wheelers aren’t up to the task of driving over the nastiest boulder you can find. Sometimes experienced
ones aren’t too. Use extreme caution and good judgment and this pastime may prove to be a great challenge
and a lot of fun.

RAMP TRAVEL INDEX / RTI
A vehicles RTI or ramp travel index
is a measurement of vehicles
suspension (and frame) flexibility. In
many situations off-road vehicles
flexibility may be the determining
factor of whether or not it can get
over an obstacle. If a vehicles
suspension is too stiff this may
cause a tire or two to be lifted,
loosing
contact
and
traction,
especially apparent in vehicles with
open differentials. While locking
differentials will help to maintain
forward momentum when a wheel is
off the ground, good flexibility will
help to keep the wheels on the
ground and more able to conform to the terrain.
You may have seen at many off road events 4x4's taking a shot at the ramp. The ramp tells a great deal
about a vehicle's capabilities on the trail. It's also very useful for evaluating suspension systems,
examining shock length, finding interference points and other things that may only be apparent on the trail
while under the extremes of wheel travel. There are several factors that make up the RTI score. First the
ramp. In most cases the ramp is on a 20 degree angle. Some events measure the extremely flexible
vehicles with a ramp of greater angle like the 23 degree ramp. The vehicle attempts to climb the ramp as
high as possible without lifting a wheel off the ground. The distance the vehicle can travel up the ramp
without losing contact with the ground is measured from the leading edge of the ramp to the center of the
hub on the ramp. That number is then divided by the vehicles wheelbase (the distance between the
vehicles centerline of the front axle and the centerline of the rear axle) and then multiplied by 1000 to
calculate the average. For instance, if a vehicle with a wheelbase of 94 inches travels 62 inches up the 20
degree ramp then the RTI would be calculated as: 62" divided by 94" x 1000 resulting in a score of 659.
This method of multiplying by the vehicles wheelbase allows one vehicle to compete with another vehicle
like a CJ-5 to an F-250 Crew Cab on the same ramp test.
While you can't "cheat" the ramp, you can get the most out of your shot at the ramp and in the process
improve your vehicles ability to articulate the terrain. One the easiest things that can be done to improve
your RTI slightly and improve trail performance is to "air down" the tires. Airing down the tires to an air
pressure of about half of the recommended tire pressure for normal driving will slightly improve your RTI
score but more noticeably it will improve your the vehicles trail performance by smoothing out the bumps
and allowing your meats to conform to the terrain resulting in better traction. Some people air down to as
low as 5 PSI on the trail however pressure this low can result in the tire bead separating from the rim. As a
result bead locks are used to hold the tire to the rim. Always be sure to bring your air pressure back up to
normal on-road driving pressure when you hit the road home again. Another way to improve the score
slightly and smooth out the ride involves only to grease between the leaf springs of the leaf spring pack.
Some folks say that this helps more than they would have expected when the hit the ramp. Other ways of
improving the RTI score such as sway bar disconnects, compound shackles such as Revolver Shackles,
better suspension systems all help to improve not only the RTI score but the performance off-road.
(continued…)
18
How to Measure Your RTI Score Without a Ramp
So you don't have access to a ramp and you don't feel like building one. How can you find out what
your RTI score would be if it were tested on the ramp? Since the RTI score is simply mathematics
it can be measure and calculated without a ramp. The RTI is a measurement of how high a tire can
travel vertically you will need to safely raise one of the tires until one of the other tires almost
comes off the ground. This can be done by using a forklift with the tire resting on a pallet or by
using a floor jack and the tire resting on a flat surface underneath which is the floor jack. Be sure to
do this safely. The main objective is to raise one wheel as high as possible before lifting a tire off
the ground. Once raised measure the distance between the bottom of the tire and the ground. If
using a fork lift you would measure where the tire meets the pallet to the floor. Since a 20 degree
ramp rises at .345 inches per inch divide the height of the lifted tire by .345 (for 20 degrees). Next
divide that number by your vehicles wheelbase. Multiply that number by 1000 to acquire an
average and you have your score. While the ramp is a true measurement of your RTI this
calculation is pretty close.

Thank You to all the volunteers of the 2009 GAJR for sticking through all
the rain and mud to make the day a great success.
Over 500 Jeeps were on site, some with their tops down in the rain. One
thing is for sure, Jeepers are a resilient bunch! An event like this can’t be
rescheduled do to the rain because of scheduling of the vendors,
fairgrounds and personnel. Thank You to all who showed up and made a
great day of it. We had a blast! Rain OR Shine!
We look forward to seeing you again on Sunday October 3rd 2010
For the 9th annual Great American Jeep Rally.
