toyminator2000 – There has to be dumb people in order for there to be smart people
sounds like the springs are a bit stiff
What couldn't you do that you used to, as for the ride they have the same springs as the swb unless somebody tossed in add a leafs which will make the suspension hard or brick like.
I don't know, my extra cab will go pretty much wherever i want it too.
when i went wheeling years ago on a ford explorer run, we encountered a trail called jeep hill, the jeeps basically all got stuck going up the hill because of where the ruts were, none of our groups explorers had any problems, because the explorers had a slightly longer wheelbase, but around the same width
Long wheelbase rigs often do better climbing because the front and rear tires do not have to climb at the same time. Examples would be Dump Bump, Widow Maker and Double Whammy in Moab. You can drive a fairly stock full size truck up Dump Bump and Double Whammy, but most short wheelbase rigs have great difficulty.Short wheelbase are generally better for maneuverability in tight spots.In my opinion, as long as the rig will fit, longer is better, but opinions are only opinions.No matter what the wheelbase, you will find a place that has rocks or ledges spaced perfectly to make you look like a monkey. When I had the Truetrac in the front there was one spot on the Moab Rim that always gave me fits, but the Aussie solved the problem completely.
trails change over time, at least out here they do. If it's all rock then it's not going to change that much. It's kinda like what we experience at Tellico: On dry days the hardest trails are impossible (or near to it) let it rain the night before and during the day and they're much easier, just the nature to the beast I guess.
