Any off roaders here?

I was/am... I just sold off my CJ7 since the tranny blew and am looking for another 4x4.

 

Yup. I have had quite the stable over the years too.
74 VW Thing
76 CJ-7
3 different 4x4 Toyota P/U's
2 Land Cruisers
LR Discovery
LR Defender (10 on coolness factor scale)
Wrangler Rubicon
Current Whip: 2008 DC Tacoma

I wish I still had the Thing, D-90 and the Rubicon.

 

I am in spirit.

I've still got the toys and tools, just nowhere to put them. Somehow fences and tresspass warning signs starting growing out of the ground at every possible and former off-roading location.....every single one.

 

they suck in deep snow ..

and thats with 500 hp pushing all 4 of them ..

if your in pure fresh powder they are okay,

but when you have any ice or build up condensed snow on top .. they are very bad ..

 

Sold the 94 Yota so I'm four wheeless right now. I may get an old Jeep sometime.

 

'95 4Runner with 33" BFG MTs, and new factory suspension. Doesn't have the look that a fullsized pickup with huge lift and monster tires has (which is fine by me), but I'm a decent driver, know my limits, and have a lot of fun driving around the big boys trying to pull each other out of something stupid.

 

I am an avid off-roader!

Did you get the new BFG MT KM2's or the older style BFG MT's?

KILLERtj

 

87 suzuki samurai with toyota axles, lockers, regeared, roll cage, bfg km2's, etc. we have a few offroad parks in Alabama. love offroading & buying Glock pistol's. Roll Tide !!! see pics at http://m720.photobucket.com/albums/zukyota

 

Not addressed to me, but I LOVE mine! Done moderate snow, rocks, and mud with no problems whatsoever. Surprisingly quiet at highway speeds too. They're not wearing fast either.

 

Here is my hunting/bad weather/4 wheelin' ride. 2003 Silverado w/Pro-Tec package, ARB bumper with Ramsey Winch, KC lights, 6" lift and BFG 35" KM2s. Don't need 500 hp to push it, does great in the snow if you know how to drive it.

I am a fan of ARB lockers. I have 110K on this and I am getting ready to mod the tranny this spring and hopefully upgrade the rear axle.

 

Nice rigs guys! I’ve been interested for a while but just recently started hitting the trails. Here are my off roaders, I’ve not had the Series Rover out yet but still quite capable.

1992 Range Rover Classic
1994 Land Rover Defender 90
1973 Series III Land Rover

 

Yep, my 1999 Jeep Cherokee Classic does a great job. It just needs a minor lift, larger tires and some air locking diffs.

 

mine are on a 4x4 diesel dodge ..

they do great in everything except snow ..

BUT if you just take your time and think about what your doing .. they will still get you wher you need to go safely .. you just gotta go a little slower ..

but ive gone home in 10+ inches of snow several times .. also they tear up new snow like theres no tomorow .. they just give no grip or traction on packed down snow / ice ..

 

I want a D-90

Or at least my FJ80 back!

 

Since the early '70s.

2001 CTD HO RAM, Dana 80 limited slip in back, Dana 60 up front, 6sp trans rated for 550hp and transfer case at 1450ft/lbs torque, 4 wheel discs, forged aluminum wheels, 295 (33")x75x16 BFG A/T and heated leather seats;









Also does well in snow up to the spring hangers.
