    I did this trail this afternoon after reading about it on a Wrangler Forum thread. I took about 2 hours and was approximately 8 miles long. Most of it was pretty rocky. There were some spots towards the end that if it had been a little wet might have been really fun getting through. But...
    After getting done I stopped somewhere for a burger and everything was driving fine. I got back into my Renegade started it up and the steering alignment was waaaay off. Then the ESC light kept flickering on and off until I got all of these messages...
    "Dynamic Steering Torque Service Required"
    "Service ESC System"
    "Service Tire Pressure System"
    "Service Hill Start Assist"
    Anybody else have this problem after taking your Renegade off road? I should mention I had previously install the Daystar 1.5" lift and 225/65/17 KO2s. I took some video and plan to edit it and post it when I get a chance.

    Found out I sheared off a bolt for the front right lower ball joint. Didn't think I hit anything that hard yesterday. Who knew? Anyway here's a link to some edited footage I recorded. It's about 7 minutes long. Nothing fancy, not set to music or anything...

    $255 was the total. $119 for diagnostic, $85 for alignment, the rest in parts and labor.

    Not bad, I'll have to be a little more careful!
