ok seriously.... this is almost a moot point....2wd will never perform like a 4x4. theres prerunning and rallying on gravel roads. im not tryin to be a ***** but even with a locker or spool its not the same... better but not the same.

if your looking into makin your 2wd better just buy a locker and some nicer tires.

 

BOOM!




When it was yeller I took it offroad alot more

 

i very rarely got stuck with my 2wd but i had lockers and 31's. spent most of my time pulling out my friends 96 f150 4x4. there were a few occasions where i had to use tire chains but very rarely got stuck and when i did usually everyond got stuck.

 

Well a sh!tty driver with the best vehicle will get stuck. You are just more cautious but I highly doubt your truck can do what my truck can do and I'm stock other than tires. I have proven this to a few people that think their 2wd could go where my 4wd goes.

 

I offroad IN 2wd, does that count? lol For the record, not counting mud, my truck in 2wd with the locker locked I walk all over my friends in 4wd. Even with BFG all terrains. One of the friends drives a Toyota with BFG M/T. Driver skill has a lot to do with it.

I offroaded my old 2wd EDGE:

 

There is a clear difference between what is perceived as off roading the further one gets from mountains.

 

Stock 4wd wheeling:



I highly doubt a locked 2wd truck will do that. Well maybe while whinching the whole way.

 

At the very least you need a limited slip. I'm not gonna wheel anymore until I have one. This open rear end I have is pathetic.
But you just have to know your limits. If your rig is 2wd you should just accept that you are limited to milder, dryer offroading and can't do it all. I'm just fine with that. I don't want to **** up my DD anyway

lol. So you're saying a body lift is better for wheeling than a suspension lift thats made by Fabtech? lol

 

Pretty much. The body lift wont break as easly as a craptech spindle.

 

And apparently a craptech spindle wont break as easily as your slave cyliner JM

 

Yeah but that's not my fault. That is Ford's fault for making crap.

 

I rock crawl like a mother****er


I go mudding


Climb steep inclines


Negotiate treacherous, tight terrain


And I really have to know the size of my "rig" for some of the tight trails


Also been known to do some hardcore water crossings





my 2wd > you


please let some bodylifted 4wd people quote this and talk ****, the same people who wax their trucks and armorall their tires and then go find a little rock or hill to drive and and show their mad suspension flex to their internet friends like to talk a lot of **** about how hardcore they are.

 

Bahahahahaha. That is what most 2wd guys call offroading. If they had 4wd they would probably put it in LOW for wet grass.

 

yaaaa stock

 

That's is a fire trail. Sorry man.

Stock 4wd with BFG AT tires:






I don't take too many pics because I'm busy wheeling.

 

here's a video i put together back in the spring of 2009 going up to our local mud pit.. i was in 4low because i felt like jsut creeping along. could have done it in 2wd.

I thought this thread was about people who take there 2wds offroad?

 

Oh it is. Just showing the ones that think their 2wd can go where a 4wd can that their wrong is all.

 

Lmao at Korey's post!!!!

 

this truck took me everywhere it was a 2wd 3.0 with 3 inch body cranked tbars explorer leafs and shackles with 4.10s

 

man i wish we had places like that to go in NC

 

Thanks whippersnapper for showing the 2wd guys up with you 4wd. Dont you feel special

 

Everything whipper snapper showed doing in 4wd........Could be done with a locked 2wd..hell the snow picture I have done with a open 2wd with good tires and weight lol...12 inches of snow and Cornfield hoppin :D 2wd ...just gotta keep her a movin!

 

No not really.

I'd like to see you try to climb some of those with a 2wd. A well built 2wd truck will be capable but it will have nowhere near the capability of a 4wd truck.

 

thanks for the opporitunity to *****
