  10. Welcome @TheUsualSuspect Renier, two things I like to highlight for you.

    1. Never do a half-clutch in the sand with your manual transmission, which will burn the clutch.
    2. With such an enormous lift (looks like 4- 6 inches), be extra careful in sand dunes and don't fight gravity at all seeing the car in front. Your car is different and may not be as forgiving as stock wranglers and might flip. For slow speed rock crawling this much lift is acceptable, but for sand dunes, its extremely risky.
      • If you have been driving this much lifted wrangler in sand for some time, then ignore my second comment. Which means you are aware of your true COG and vehicle body roll in dunes.
