I did some deep stuff here in north Maine last week (photo thread on here). It performed admirably. Lightly modified wranglers got stuck befor me.

So will this cover me if I bottom out and rip the really flimsy factory skid plate off off road?

The red stuff: Is brakes (whale mating song in reverse ), Fuel system is the 1.5’s with leaking injectors issue in would also encompass the engine reliability issue.

You might consider a 100w Walmart crock pot. Addition. Then prep food in pot, plug into inverter and drive to location and enjoy awesome hot lunch. A simple 2 bungie system keeps lid secured. (Walmart has a Walmart brand 10 dollar crockpot, I think it is 2 quart). Real Mac and cheese trailside...

Sorry “slippery” ( the icy snow flake picture one). lol .

So snow goat mode was fine for general driving(packed roads) , but the deep snow it was a hinderance. To clarify I’ve been driving 6 Months of the year on snow since I was 19,(Alaska and the Maine). My ability to feather throttle on acceleration and feather brakes by feel is exceptionally well...

recovery was textbook, hooks, bungie rope. Actual skid plates are next investment, the crusty stuff hitting the factory one was not making me happy. Then Amber colored chase light and extra forward lights .(mixed amber and white) The amber shows up really well against the snow and makes...

So the local overlanding group did the annual trip this weekend. I obviously went. I was the only unibody vehicle there and the least modified. The largest vehicles would be a dodge power wagon (factory locking diff, winch and rock sliders??), and a Jeep gladiator on 37 inch tires. The snow...

Isn’t the 2.3 turbo like 305 hp/torque in the mustang ? 320 after the performance package tune and exhaust. I doubt 350 from a 4 banger production rig is economically feasible.

They couldn’t call it the “turtle”, or “ rat”, neother would market well.

Wow those fires are well beyond a hand held extinguisher… lol

I hadn’t seen that. Does it fit non CMS models?

So I have a fire extinguisher in my bronco sport.The jeeps I hang with on weekends usually have oil leaks, and exhaust manifolds, it seemed prudent (For the forests we drive through, lol). The extinguisher basically bounces around, rattles, and usually isn’t exactly where it is supposed to be...

A tundra towed the space Shuttle (30k lbs I believe) . Publicity stunt sure, and top speed was 2-3 mph if I remember. A bicycle can safely pull a 10k trailer on a flat hard surface if the gearing is right. Top speed will be very low. Same with your BS. Pulling is easy. STOPPING the towed Object...

As mentioned in about 10 threads before this… Height is not the problem, width is. When you turn your tire will rub on pinch welds if you go bigger than 245-70r17. I’ve got 235-65r17’s

Agreed. Weight of 1700 is before propane, spare tire/wheel for trailer, water, food, bedding, ect, you are easily looking at 2500 lbs.

I have a passenger seat belt adjuster(in and out part not up and down part) that will “moan” when it moves, like lean forward,”moan” back”moan” , annoying. They are replacing under warranty though.

DONT! The rear wheels are Still spinning in this case. The rear wheels are connected to driveshaft via the rear differential . The rear diff will still be spinning despite being being in a powered down state, I would wager That there is a chance that the diff clutch might auto engage based on...
