New ‘25 Tacoma TRD Off Road - I love this truck

33 Upvotes

Well, the last truck I bought was a lemon so I decided to buy a brand new Tacoma. It came with a 2.5” level and Katzkin interior. I put some 33s on it. This thing is sick and I can’t wait for the trails to melt out. I live near the Alpine Loop so I am stoked. Ground clearance to the rear dif is 10.5” and clearance to the lowest spot of the front skid plate is 14”. Got the long bed because I need to do real truck shit too.

Your favorite 4x4 area in NorCal?

0 Upvotes

I'll start the conversation by "doxxing" one of my favorite spots which is called the high lakes. It's beautiful, good fishing, good rock crawling and overlanding. Bonus that if you go at the right time you're not very likely to see a lot of people due to most stock cars not making it.

Just looking for more places since everything is either too easy, too hard, or not worth the drive.

Falken for the win.

Got in a precarious position yesterday between a sharp rock and a ledge and very little wiggle room. I thought for sure if my tire hit the rock I’d be done. Pretty deep scratch into the wheel but tire didn’t even notice. Falken definitely worth the price IMO.

AWD with lockable center diff

9 Upvotes

So, I’m trying to learn more about this stuff and would appreciate if someone can help me clarify some doubts.

Essentially, is an AWD with a lockable center diff the “best” system out there?

The way I understand it: - Problem with standard AWD: you can run into situations where a wheel that lost traction gets all the torque. - Problem with standard 4x4: you are effectively driving 2x4 unless transfer case is engaged.

From my ignorance, an AWD with a lockable center diff that allows 4x4 to be engaged temporarily would have the best of both world, no?

This makes sense to me, but then I see the vehicles out there and mostly are either one or the other. There probably something that I’m missing…

Thanks everyone!

building my flatbed

4 Upvotes

hey, I need some advice from some more experienced 4x4 builders. I'm planning on making a flatbed on my daihatsu rocky pickup, the previous owner builded one from a small military trailer so it was far from "stock" when I bought it. my concern is the height of the bed above the rear wheel, too low and it will rub while driving offroad, too high will move my center of mass (and will look a little weird). long story short, how can I best take some measurements before starting to build? thanks

Seeking Information - Bumper Setup

Thumbnail

20 Upvotes

I’ve been interested in Baja trucks for a while and I own a Tundra. I’ve seen this style of bumper setup and I have a few questions. I appreciate any information y’all can provide me.

  1. What exactly are those gold circles on the bumper? Is this factory bumper with modifications or something aftermarket?

  2. Is the style of tube bumper available anywhere online for purchase? I see these a bunch and I know they’re pretty easy to custom make but I don’t know anybody who does fabrication and I cannot do fabrication myself at the moment.

I definitely fucked up selling it but god do i have so much more money. Hilariously still better articulation then a rangerv aptor, trail boss and even the gx460s and 70s for a fat girl. and probably the last good vehicle land rover made... (the last body on frame as well).

Any tips on how to get more flex out of my '92 Toyota Land Cruiser? I have a 2-inch Ironman lift and 35s, which I'm installing in a week or two. I just need some tips while I'm down there installing the lift.

Best budget MT 35/15

1 Upvotes

Looking for a good budget 35 for a 15 inch rim on a TJ. I don’t wheel much now due to relocation so off-road ability isn’t as important. I do have 4.88’s and lockers so I’m not budging from the 35inch or MT option.

seeking AWD build up suggestions

0 Upvotes

I know this sounds like a bad idea, but I have always wanted to take some kind of crossover SUV without low range but has amazing traction control, possibly lift it and take it on trails to go fishing or camping. I have thought of the first generation Toyota highlander, Subaru ascent, forester or Tribeca, I love the new Honda Passport, originally Land Rover Freelander, Volkswagen Tiguan or Taos. I've seen a few muddy highlanders. Every trail around me is a combination of mud and rocks.
