The rear bumper banged a few times and spare tire was rubbed a bit, but otherwise his trailer hitch did well as a rear slider.
That was impressive, wasn't it? Stock with 33's, ARB front, tow hitch rear. He got stopped on a few of the steeper lines, but all in all made it with relatively little problem. I think that hitch is about a half inch thinner and I wouldn't drive on that spare

Which goes to my point - it's not about lift so much in Moab as front and rear clearance and tires.

Stay @ 3"-4" and 35's and you can run most of what it out there.
