Sup guys pretty new to the offreading scene. I drive a 99 wrangler sport I6 4.0L

All the money I've put in has been repairs not a single upgrade. I plan to bedliner my fender flares and side steps, install an aussie locker in the front, lift 3 inches since my shocks and springs are completely worn anyways and put on 31 inch tires. I like mostly just driving trails and dirt roads. Absolutely terrified of rocks and mud is kinda meh.

My dad's a big jeep guy and picked up this '85 nissan 720 for $1k as a project for us after I showed interest in his neighbor's toyota. Previous owner rebuilt the top and bottom and totally gutted the thing. We have it running with a weber conversion and mostly back together now except for tail lights, seatbelts and other lesser important things.

Planning on doing a solid axle swap and bobbing the back 13" or so, already have a toyota front axle waiting to get swapped in.

It's sitting on 33s right now and it does ok offroad for IFS, probably gonna go 34s or 35s when we're done with it.

Yeah I kind of wish he had scored a toyota instead just for the aftermarket. It's all good though, gonna have to fab pretty much everything for this build, SAS shit, front and rear bumpers, cage etc.. My dad did welding for a living so it'll be a good exercise to learn on.

Digging that flatbed btw, might do that instead of bobbing the bed.

>>14177398
That's it. Also 4Runners are pretty limited on tire size, even with a lift which I'm not a huge fan of. See what you can do with the largest tire you can fit with full suspension travel at the stock suspension height and see if you need more.

Don't do that. You'll regret it. A simple budget boost with shocks is all you need to run 31's. On a TJ you can run 33s with no rub on 3.5" of lift. I personally know a couple guys running 33s on a zone 3" lift.

Really depends on what you're going to go through. 31 inch all terrains will get you anywhere you need to go in the woods by me, but there's some places you need at least a 35. Tire pressure matters a lot too, I'll bring a compressor and air down when I'm playing in the sugar sand

Yes, it does. IFS has shit flex, they basically have two tiny axles, one for each wheel and that's what limits the amount of flex. They're also weak as fuck.

Ever wonder why people who are serious about offroading never use IFS? Go look at pure offroad builds and 99%+ use solid axles. Shit, guys go through the expense and trouble of cutting IFS crap out just so they can weld in link or leaf shackles for solid axles.

It's fucking trash for offroad.

>>14178820
Look at this faggot, Flex is everything when you're offroad. It keeps you much more stable while crawling over uneven terrain. Also since you can keep all 4 tires on the ground you have more traction for moving forward. Lockers help no matter the suspension design, but flex and lockers is the way to go.

>>14178869
It adds some perceived stability, but traction gets reduced due to removing weight from the tires. Most solid axle setups have about the same flexibility as their independent counter parts, anyway. Of course you're going to argue about some super modified thing, though.

how cute

>>14178885
Have you ever heard of unsprung weight? It actually helps offroad. Solid axle trucks have more unsprung weight which helps keep the tires against the ground to give traction while flexed out. Also stock for stock a solid axle vehicle will always outflex a IFS truck. But who leaves their 4wd stock and goes offroad seriously? Also the bigger the tire the more weight, the larger the axles the more weight is helping keep the vehicle moving forward while flexing out.

Video very related.

>traction gets reduced due to removing weight from the tires
This is such a silly statement I don't even...look at the photo of the hummer on the ramp with one wheel just all hanging out. Now look again at the tacoma, think about how the weight is being transferred in these vehicles.

The tacoma has more evenly distributed weight all around, the rear tires are damn near even while the front right tire has the brunt of the weight the front left still has a substantial amount. You can tell by the compression of the tires.

The humvee has the vast majority of its weight on the rear right and front left, it's also about to tip the fuck over.

Right, you're starting to get it now!

>Most solid axle setups have about the same flexibility as their independent counter parts
That's simply not true.

>>14178904
>>14178932
Where did you people learn physics?

>>14178900
Try using that in the real world in the rocks, it has a lot of travel yes, but it wont flex the way you want like a solid axle. That setup is for desert racing, not 4 wheeling in the rocks.

>>14178932
forgot vid

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xl9PxGF6jD4

>>14178900
That's likely one of the most extreme examples of IFS flexing and it still isn't all that impressive.

>>14178900

And thats when price comes in to the picture. You get equal results with a tenth of the money spent with SA

>>14178946
Clearly this is a troll, no one is this stupid. Because apparently all the 4wd experts in the world are all wrong and you're right is that it? Thousands of solid axle swaps each year and all of them looking for more flex, to say they are all wrong when the results prove themselves.

It is you who has no understanding of physics. Because in the real world solid axles and flex beat shitty IFS.

My suburban has leaf springs front and rear, and still outflexes IFS trucks. Pic related, back when I had the 37s...

My 4runner I just picked up will have a 3 link in the front, leafs in the rear with full width 1 ton axles. It will flex with the best of them.

>>14178885
>It adds some perceived stability
Having all four wheels on the ground is more stable than trying to balance on two or three.

End of story.

>but traction gets reduced due to removing weight from the tires
The vehicle does not become heavier and improve traction when one wheel lifts.
Your net weight is the same. Dividing it up between four wheels instead of two increases your chances of one of the wheels being driven of being on a surface where it can make traction.

>Most solid axle setups have about the same flexibility as their independent counter parts
Except it's far easier to gain articulation with solid axles than it is with independent suspension.

>>14179623
Still have 47s and 52s? You'd get even more out of it with leafs going with 52s and 63s.

>>14177524
Won't I need to re gear to run anything bigger than 31? Also I need to swap my shocks and springs anyways. It's the oem suspension from 1999 it's sagged Luke 4 inches

>>14180163
WV. There is an off road park 20 miles away but it's closed for the season.

Could also go out to where my parents live but that's 45 minutes away, maybe I'll just have to go there until spring

How much trouble can I get in for driving on service roads? There are a ton of logging/service roads owned by the city or county down here in South VA. If the land isn't posted as no trespassing, can I off road on it?

Here is a video of me using my WJ on one of the service roads:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nD5vE8nh4c4

I have plenty more videos if /o/ is at all interested. My WJ doesn't have any real performance mods, yet. I intend on doing a 2/4 inch lift with 31's sometime this summer. I'm not a big fan of crawling, more so just want clearance for high level water and holes/ruts. I've already bottomed out a few times on things I've seen stock TJs make it through flawlessly.

>>14180189
You will definitely need to regear, question is what size tire you see yourself ending up with. In some cases it may be cheaper to find an axle set with 4.10 gears in it then to buy new R/P gears and install it.
If you plan on going bigger then 33s, you'd be better off going straight to 4.88s with the automatic trans.

>>14180264
Stay off the land regardless. If its a public road/unmaintained road/unassumed road, then it is acceptable for use in most cases. If there is already a trail and no signage, go on it at your own risk and stay on the trail. Don't be a dick and go blazing your own trail and tearing up someones property.

>>14180235
Thats pretty awesome, the majority of our trail system is closed for the winter. And they are all about 5 hours away from where I roost :(

>>14180345
I didn't even know it was there until recently, I didn't have a truck for 5 years, I definitely want to check it out. It's King Knob, apparently fairly well known.

>>14180004

Fuck this gay earth. I want it but america wont let me have it.

>>14180283
That's why I plan on staying with 31 so no reason to re gear

>>14180264
>>14180327

You can call some logging companies and ask, half the time they don't care as long as it's not business hours.

Eh. it might have. Last year i was at an ohv park with my brother and a friend, my brother in a 2012 outdoorsmen my friend a 2010 h3 and i have a jk rubicon 2015. We were doing a trail that goes up pretty high and is a little tight but is not very hard or technical and while we were parked at the summit 3 jks came up all with lifts 35s and other mods and they were talking about how hard the trail was.
It really could just be people with mall crawlers finally learning to off-road. But at least they are trying.

/o/ in a nutshell

Last year some faggot and his wife thought it would be a good idea to take his honda pilot shitheap up a real trail and backed us up for three hours because his shitbox was too trashed to move on. When we finally were able to pass him, he had replaced one rear tire with a spare donut. Later some retards came to their rescue in side-by-sides. Fuck these idiots.

When it comes to muddy/rocky trails it goes pretty well, better than your average AWD SUV, forester, etc. In terms of actual rock crawling its not awful, but by no means good. That's probably because I'm a huge faggot and I'm afraid to destroy a new car. We won't really know if it's easily modified as there's no aftermarket. The exception being a few lift kits at <2".

All part of armchair offroader culture on /o/. But hey, if the bus ever gets stuck these guys are on it.

>>14183851
The armchair off roaders are the ones that bitch about independent suspension

>>14183858
Quite the contrary. The armchair offroaders are the ones defending their cheap IFS DDs that they don't even wheel by saying they're just as good as or better than SFA.

Then they'll defend their point by comparing travel between a $100k 2WD IFS prerunner and a stock $3k SFA shitbox, as if the travel they get out of their stock torsion bar IFS is comparable to that of the prerunner or even has the remote potential to be.

>>14183594
Lack of aftermarket mods that support a vehicles intended purpose generally implies it's not easily modified.

You can buy bolt on coilover conversion kits for 80s chevy trucks. There's obviously more market for 3-4" lifts for a new Jeep. So if you can't buy them, there's probably good reason for it.

>>14177401

Depends on your definition of light trails.

You may be able to get by with just a cheapo LSD for the rear and 30s all around on stock height.

The best way to go about modifying is to 'modify by necessity'

Take it where you take it as it is now, and see where your weak points are, are you bottoming out a lot, have traction issues etc?

First investment would be a hi-lift jack/ other recovery equipment while you're still figuring out what you need exactly, and then eventually it wouldn't hurt to have a winch, but a hi-lift does a winches job just fine, albiet much slower.

>>14185862

It happens when a shitty car company improperly designs a vehicle with a SFA, then refuses to amend their awful engineering despite multiple high-speed accidents.

There are plenty of vehicles that use SFA and don't suffer from this problem nearly the way shitty Chrysler products do. Other companies properly design their tie rods, stabilizers, etc. to work under a variety of conditions, whereas Chrysler does not.

It's not a meme unless you're SO inbred and poor that you don't even know how your own shitty vehicle works.

>>14185892
I am not talking about a RAV-4. I'm talking Pajero, Patrol, LC, LC Prado, etc. D44 is slightly weaker than the Toyota 8".

>>14185892
>citation needed
well lets see.. it has 32 splines, 1.6" diameter, and wait for it.. a 9" ring gear.

go look up specs yourself you retarded ape

a stock jk with chromoly shafts will handle 35s all fucking day long on actual challenging trails.

your shitty jap soccer mom suv will highside just getting the the first obstacle. they arent made for offroad.. neither are stock jks or any stock suv for that matter but they are definitely more capable. it's not a debate you're just a fucking no experience idiot.

>>14185906
Not the new 44's in the JK.

>>14185936
A stock JK isn't made for off road? A stock Land Cruiser or Pajero isn't made for off road? Better tell all those people driving them off road, then.

>>14185906
I understand that perfectly, as I've had my share of Cruisers and Pajeros. This is on reference to the Rav anon claiming his shitbox is more durable than a Wrangler.

The only downside to the Cruiser axles is the earlier 8mm floating axle locating studs were a bit of a potential weak point. Toyota however rectified that with the 100 series and the later coil cab 70 series with 10mm studs.

>>14185936
>9=8.9
Top lel.
And the 9.5", 33.5mm and 31 spline rear end under the back of my Paj is more than adequate.

>>14185982
The biggest issue with the D44 and other axles Jeep likes to use are the weak shit axle housings. That's why the Pajero II suspension was able to do duty in light duty CoE trucks.

>>14186038
Yet you have weaker shafts.
a 3/4 axle is weak in general for actual enthusiast level offroading. You will always have to take steps to help them.

I mean I'm pretty sure you consider camping trails offroading so it's not like you even need a strong axle in the first place.

pic related is jk on factory non-trussed axles with chromo shafts and 35s seems pretty capable to me. enjoy your fire roads.

>>14186049
>Yet you have weaker shafts.
But, I don't. Cool projection, though.

>>14186064
lower spline and smaller diameter, so yes you do.

you must not know what that word means.

you think stock suvs are "offroad" capable so I can only assume that you're definition of offroad is fire roads and camping trails because thats about all stock suvs are good for.

See I really don't know shit about the duece. This is not a duece, it is a 1994 or 95 am general m923a2. It is not a multi fuel engine, it is not a manual transmission, etc
Shit is heavily reliant on it's air system. Without air you don't have a truck.
It does share driveline parts with a huge amount of semis however. Transmission is Allison 5 speed, medium duty. Engine is an 8.3 cta(medium duty again). Parts are easier to find.

Riding dirty

Bumping because IFS minivan fags BTFO again

>>14185833

Jelly.

The most fun I've had offroad was my friend launching his rusty little Zook on tractor tires up a slippery super steep trailhead, and ending up smacking the bumper into a sapling so hard that it locked the steering (pushed into the front tire). After unsuccessfully trying to bend it back using a come along strapped to an F250, he ended up taking an angle grinder to that corner of the bumper and was all set. I really wish I had an old 4x4 beater like that and 60 wooded acres bordering state land to goof around on.

Whats the best locker to get for a D44 on a Jk?

>>14193253
Two door or four door? Front or back locker? Also street driven much or trail rig? These all are important bits of info to consider when choosing a locker for your jeep.

It's a 2door JK and it would be for the front. I probably go twice a month. My little weekend warrior. OP is my JK.

>>14193685
And by front I of course mean my rear axle which is the D44.

>>14193690
ARB or Yukon zip locker. Selectable is best for a daily driver.

>>14193690
For the rear I'd go with a Detroit locker, they are very quiet and unlock on the street when you make turns, unless you mash it. For the front I'd go selectable like an ARB or E-locker so you could unlock the front to help with steering in the rocks.

>>14193811
A selectable isn't needed in the rear, even on a daily driver. Just have to get used to it. No point in wasting the money when you can install one in the front

i have a third gen 4runner. it doesnt have the locker which sucks, but ive still outperformed a bone stock 2013 2 door wrangler sahara offroad. ive pulled a bronco, a ranger, a mid 200's F150, and a 2015 sierra out of the mud. i have a 3 inch lift and33's, but other than that its stock. its great offroad. the locker would be a big plus though. if you don't plan on doing anything too extreme, not having lockers is fine and you can always retrofit some.

>>14193957
A lot of it comes down to the drivers skill. I've seen open/open jeeps go up the same obstacle with more ease then a rubicon with front and rear lockers engaged.

Mine, 13 rubicon.

Took it around the west (CA-NV-UT-CO-WY-MT-ID-WA-OR-CA) to do Moab, Ouray, the Oregon trail in Wyoming a couple of years back.

Last year I took it to Alaska and back, doing the Alaskan, Dalton and Dempster highways among others.

Haha you guys are pretty narrow-minded when offroading. It can literally be anything that is not on a paved surface.

Yes, solid axles are ideal for vehicles that have to navigate wildly un-level terrain, but only about half of vehicles built for prerunning use solid axles. IFS is just as useful for that sport, which is also legitimate off-roading, except they're going through terrain at ~40+ mph. It can absorb terrain better at high speeds, and can offer slightly higher ground clearance than most solid axles with the same tire size.

Well, how big do you want to go? 2.5" budget lift, 33s, sway bar quick disconnects and some skid plates and you've got a pretty decent weekend warrior for $2000-2500 worth of parts. May be more depending on your tire selection

Mine are about a year old. Next to leds my light output is abysmal. Nice having all of them on while cruising down empty highways late at night though. Stock JK headlights suck balls.

OP here.
I got a Rubicon express 3.5" (no shocks) for $500 after taxes
$1k for king off road shocks
Stinger bumper from Dv8 off road
Side steps that are strong as fuck for rocks also, by DV8 off road.

Not sure if I should go for control arms first or lockers.

I drive well enough to so obstacles that others would use their lockers for, mainly by airing down to 12psi and driving slower than old people fuck

San Isabel is fucking beautiful in the winter but god help you when mother nature decides to have some dandruff. Also fucking Pueblo, this is the worst snow storm we've had in years, was crawling in 1st/4WD for like ten miles.

The only solid axles that can compare to the amount of clearance independent suspension gives have gearboxes attached to the ends.

>>14201032
I hear they're pretty expensive and are shit for highway use.


Basically, don't out em on something you DD.

>>14195864
story from the tow truck driver who picked it up is that the lady who owned it put it in gear with the "key on" and it bump started down a hill and went threw a 6 inch pine tree off of a 3 foot embankment into the lady's living room... she shoulda used the parking break.. just saying... oh and i had to clean her dogs blood off of everything

Going to pick up a 94 zj for 6-800$
Has 212k miles on the inline 6 but just passed emmisions so that's some bullshit I don't need to deal with

Suggestions on what to do with it? I want to keep it cheap as possible
Not going to do any super serious offroading but dirt roads, some paths, and general farm work aswell
Also will be a DD for a while
2 inch lift and some trimming?
Coil spacers for maximum cheapness?

>>14201150
spacers. good tires, sway bar quick disconnects and recovery hooks should be good for what you want

>>14200919
That looks to be a rubicon model undercarriage(D44 front axle). They're all the same really with the exception of trim specific items. Not much difference between the 2012-2014s
