Hi guys!
I’m looking for any recommendations for beginner trails near Yosemite.
I drive a stock 4runner TRD off-road.
Any recs appreciated!
I need beadlocks wheels for the Toyota 6 lug (6x5.5 or 6x139.7) with positive offset. +45 or even +55 offset would be perfect. Yes, this is backwards from normal and why I am having a hard time finding what I need. I have a set of Volvo portal axles converted to the Toyota pattern and I need to suck the wheels on as much as possible. Any recommendations?

I'm a Medical Courier in Baltimore. I'm looking for some advice on what to buy. 4Runner is the top of the list.. but, with my budget I'd be looking at something 15-20 years old or something with 200k miles. What do YOU think??
as title says, Rough Country seems good but idk

Hello r/4x4! BigMike from Marlin Crawler Off-Road here. Six months ago we finally updated our 18-year old website and would like to gather feedback to see how the new site is for visitors. If you wouldn't mind taking a moment to visit our site and let us know what you think then we'd greatly appreciate it to help improve our customer's shopping experience, thanks!
Brief company background is that back in 1994 our founder created the Rock Crawling industry with the first dual case setup designed for going slow over rocks (pre-dates all other dual case designs including the Atlas), our primary market is Toyota/Lexus off-road vehicles, and because txt is boring here is a pic from last year's Marlin Crawler Round Up of my white 2016 6spd manual IFS Tacoma on 40s with Three Transfer Cases and a final drive/Crawl Ratio of 580:1, Marlin's world-famous red 1980 "Crawler Truck" on 37s also with Three T/Cases and a Crawl Ratio of 1,148:1, and our fabricator's black 1st gen 4Runner on 37s with Dual T/Cases and a Crawl Ratio of 244:1. Location: Parking Lot In The Sky, Rubicon Trail, NorCal
One more for good measure, this the top of the Dusy/Ershim, CenCal
Thank you for your feedback of our new site! Cheers -BigMike
Hey Broski's Broettes and bros, I've come to a point in my other hobbies that I now require a more capable vehicle for offroading shenanigans and am looking for some advice from some more experienced peeps. For some demographic info to get out of the way. I live in a city and do a little city driving during the week(not much), but I also live right outside of the mountains meaning in the weekend I've got some beautiful mountain roads to traverse. I'm not looking to do much in dunes, but mud and rocks are very common. No extreme, steep, rocky travels but a decent amount of traversing over rocks and uneven terrain. Another way to put it, i do mild offroading(greenlaning) once a week, and more technical offroading once a month during the sunshine season. I've got about $35k for a budget.
I've been in both a 2020 Willie's, 2018 rubi and a 2020 sport s. The rubi, well, same reason I'd never get a McLaren, they're made for a specific task and it'd just be disrespectful to not use it for that task. That's kinda left me with a willy's and a sport. I'm wondering, do you think the extra capabilities of the willy's is worth it? They're about the same price, although the sport is about half the miles of the willy's(18k vs 36k) and 1 year newer. It would be nice to have that newer car, but only if it's out-of-the-box capabilities will ne enough for what I need. Any advice? Or, do you know any other cars in that price range that would be better?
Hey! What vehicles are the best choices for balance between a cheap car with high mpg, but still being capable in terrain and big enough to sleep in for two adults and a dog (I am 2m/6,5 ft tall). We are looking to buy a used car under 10 000€/$ with a maximum 8 l/100km / at least 30 mpg in Europe, and would love some suggestions on reliable models! Thankful for all help🙌
Hey folks - new poster here (and new to off-roading, so be gentle haha)
I've got a 2014 XV Crosstrek currently and it's been a great daily driver, but it's obviously not a real off-roader. I live in Oregon and love to hike, camp, paddleboard, learning hunting too, and I need something that can get me around the mountain forest roads in different weather conditions. Not planning on doing anything fancy, just want to be able to get from point A to point B! So I'm wondering which is the better option...add a 2" lift kit and upgrade the tires on the Crosstrek (and maybe add more mods if I find I need them) or get a 4x4 as a second car. From what I can tell, it's not really feasible to add a winch onto the Crosstrek, which feels like something I'd want in case I do something dumb haha.
Thoughts?
Dirt king 3.5 lt up front and I’m wondering what rear axle will add roughly 7” width.
Has there ever been a part-time locked-transfer case 4x4 that powered the front wheels when in 2 wheel drive? I don’t mean like Honda’s RealTime slip-based system. Like a regular selectable transfer case that powered the front wheels first.
I got to thinking about this because isn’t the Bronco Sport based on the FWD Maverick platform? Do they have proper 4x4?
