It depends on the hub bore diameter of your chosen rim. If you are trying to use interchangeable rims on trailer and truck (like the OP or me), most truck rims have too small of a center bore to fit over trailer hubs. Hence the need for spacers even if the bolt pattern is right.
That’s all ANY company does, we live in a throw away society. A MacBook lasting 5 years? A phone lasting 3? That’s pretty good compared to the competition.
I think that could be said for just about every off road trailer manufacturer. As far as spreading out over the wheels, it's not really usable FLOOR space because you'd have the wheel wells intruding, maybe shelves or other storage? It would also make for a pretty wide trailer at the top since...
Depends on the terrain. If I were still in the flat Midwest, I’d agree. It’s a lot more enjoyable cruise in the mountains in low range, even though 4x4 is not needed. I could absolutely do it in high, but it’s much less engine noise and big downshifts in low going up or down.
Wow, I guess you missed the spirit in which this was asked. It wasn’t about creating a definition, it was me asking your thoughts about what works for you.
Um yes, it wasn’t about getting an answer. It was just a question, for the sake of discussion, about what you think.
Is low necessary? Not for the vast majority of situations. Is it advantageous, absolutely. I shift into 4 Low as soon as I hit the trail. I love in between 2 mountain ranges so I’m going up and down constantly. I find low range leads to less dramatic down shifting. It shifts between the upper...
Spoken like a true Jeeper...
They have to wave at each other because no one else can stand them.
All jokes aside, what makes this the end of the thread? Solid axles? Perfect wheelbase? Ground clearance? Lockers? Body on frame? Approach/departure angle? 2 speed transfer case?
I get that, I do. Apparently you don’t understand what I’m asking. I’m not asking what VEHICLE is capable, I'm asking what features make a vehicle capable in YOUR OPINION. In the context of the opening post, people diss certain vehicle for not living up to the old one, even though the new one is...
Yes, but in the context of the opening post, people have an idea in their head about what an off toad vehicle should be able to do to be considered an off road vehicle. This was an ATTEMPT to see where that line is.
Instagram Experts agree that certain vehicles aren’t capable. I was just...
I doubt I'll do many trial ride with them as they're too far away. However, if they're doing a Moab run, that's only 3 1/2 hours away from me. I'll gladly become a member just to run Moab with Rover owners.
Jan 26th was walnut canyon trail run according to their calendar. The calendar only goes out til may. I’ve signed up for an account, just waiting for approval.
Has anyone here used the STANSPORT - Heavy Duty 7-Piece Stainless Steel Clad Cookware Set? The description reads like it's similar to the Magma set, but not near as expensive.
We also use the GSI Pinnacle Camper set for backpacking when we're out as a family and really like it. My only complaint (as with any light weight cooking gear) is the thin bottom has hot spots and can scorch things easily. We also added the Crossover Kitchen Kit which packs in the middle in...
I wasn’t trying to be insulting. There are certainly trails that take big tires or big damage. I wasn’t the one that claimed if it’s lifted it’s going to break.
Big tires can certainly make things more capable, but always. Back around Christmas time we were putting on our snowshoes at a trail head when there was this loud turbo whistle. I look up to see one of those bro trucks that this snow packed parking lot is the closest it’ll ever be to off road...
