I built this up in the early 80's and the wife and I roamed the woods in it. Set up to stay out for days.
If I miss anything I ever built I miss this.

You guys have some nice vehicles. Love the aftermarket bumpers. I have 03 f150 fx4 but it's mostly a daily driver and hauler of stuff for the house. I just try to keep it cleaned and well maintained it's pretty much all stock.

That's my favorite Chevy front end, those old trucks are awesome.

Off roading can be very fun. Even in a daily driver. I have modified my daily driver so I can go more places, but the same rule applies... You just go slow and easy. Take your time, be careful, and most of the time, you can get there without breaking parts.

Will 35s clear with a stock suspension?

 

[daddyusmaximus]

Kinda what I was thinking... not much room for axel articulation.

Daily driver. 95 ZJ. It's just a good ol' Jeep.



My toy is a 99 TJ. I'm constantly surprised what this Jeep makes it through.

Not without rubbing. I've got a 2" ProComp front leveling kit, a 1.5" body lift and the wheels are -12 offset. I've got no rubbing at full lock either direction. I won't be doing any hardcore off-roading in the Ram, it's got independent front suspension so it's not really cut out for it without spending a trainload of money on it. It'll probably get a 4" suspension lift when I can afford it. If I need to get someplace really difficult I'll drive the Rubi

my black dodge ram 1500 has 315/70R17 all terrains. I put a 2" front leveling kit on it and had good tire clearance. after adding my bumper with the extra weight I had a small sagging in the front again. so I added a 2 1/2" front leveling to the truck and it looks pretty level and I have good tire clearance.

TOO MANY CLEAN RIGS IN HERE!!!

Doesn't anyone know how to get em' dirty

They always clean up just fine

My 99 Cherokee that is stock..... for now. It has wheeled for the last time in current set up.





Short term plans through June is to order front bumper (this week), once I get that bumper and the tie ins for the rear bumper I got, get them all powder coated. This fall, my wife and I are ordering an Iron Rock Off Road 4" lift kit with new leaf springs and 31 or 32" tires. Probably won't do much next year, but year after, I am thinking front locker, sliders and skids.

Thanks. It was Coal Creek in Tennessee. It ended up in a calendar so I have a great print of it.

Here is my baby. It is a 2008 Nissan Titan Pro 4x with a 3" suspension lift and 35" tires. Gas mileage is not pretty but she has got some power. I have not had her off road yet but am hoping to make it out to some beginner trails at the badlands this summer.

Honestly, your wheel base is going to be an issue any place you want to wheel on trails unless you don't mind body scrapes.
