Doesn't matter, don't care. Whoever puts together the better overlanding beast gets my cash. Right now, I see a Gladiator Rubicon on 37's in my future. Not the starbucks special. Would be nice if the Gladiator had an engine or transmission to be proud of though. Maybe it will, by the...

Caster, toe. New tires can make a truck wander until they firm up.

Yep, stick trick works every time.

I'd take one of the longer TJ's. (unlimited model?) Over the original Defender any day. Add a Rubicon Express long arm kit, Yukon lockers, and 35's. All the Defenders and Disco's that I know of, haven't been on the trails in ages. There's almost no LR's of any type, on our dirt roads...

Tire manufacturer gave me the go ahead for 10% over.

For offroad pressures, I just use a stick. Usually a 1x1, but others have thier own ideas for what to use. Run it over, eyeball the tire flex.

What's the max inflation? If it's 80, set the rears to 88. Fronts to 70-75. Make sure truck isn't sitting tail down at all. An inch of rake would be nice, still.

I've noticed that chart has a 50 point swing in quality, every time a new one comes out. 50 point error seems like alot. The fact the GM zipped way up the chart again, with none, absolutely zero, changes in quality control, is a bit suspicious. That's what you get when you trust a porn star...

Pretty sure that I put 295/70r17 Cooper STT pros on my '08 XL wheels. No issues. Rotate every 10k. Not tires I would use for hauling a camper in the bed. Go with a 9" wide wheel for that. But perfect for rtt's and such. 35x12.5r18 fit easy, on a box stock Super Duty. There's not much...

Thanks. That sounds good. My DRz has a shorter wheelbase. Great for cutting through a city on the sidewalks, not so great off road.

+18mm or +20mm offset, with a 9" wide wheel. About 5.75" backspacing. Not sure what Beta meant? Any negative offset will look like a brodozer. The Method 701HD is available now. 4500# capacity, and no more stupid fake rusty bolts. A bit pricey, but worth it. Make sure to torque with...

Does this bike have the same swing arm, frame, and wheelbase as the 450R?

C130's can land and fly from a carrier: No hook for launching?

Hide your gear in the woods.

A Dr. Zed is a cock roach compared to the two bikes listed. But it's like the little tractor that could. Despite being obviously cheap everywhere, my DRZ keeps up with nicer bikes fine. Rides smoother and easier most of the time as well. It's my toss it about, ugly campground bike. But if...

We don't flash, we swerve into the oncoming lane. Lol. Jeep and truck LED's are an epidemic over here. Mommy SUV's with too much weight in the back as well.

We hate the Jeep LED's over here. OEM or aftermarket. Way too blinding. Not going to make many friends at night running those. Skip the BFG's, get a nice MT like a Cooper stt pro. If you have to get gears, get some chromoly front axles and a Yukon Griz up front. Don't forget armored diff...

Good thing the bodies aluminum, because around here, you won't have any paint left in a year, without fender flares. The Bushwacker extend a fenders, the biggest ones without fake bolts, look nice on the 17+ SD's.

Cosworth has been in bed with Ford forever, what's your point? Cosworth and Illy would have had nothing in CART at all, without. Do you think Ford and GM make their own parts? Wiring harness, gears, pitman arms, tie rods, etc. etc. Often the same vendor makes parts for a dozen different...
