Thread: gearing for 34"?

yep luckily still have a Defender for the moderate tracks and thinking getting double locked D1 on 32 or 33 just for the fun of it

Fancy that, I may well know exactly where a twin locked D1 on 33's is that might just suite your requirements Steve. ....

You're correct about people liking different things... I like shooting things (I'm pretty good) - but there's a limit to where, when and what. *its rules we abide by*

Are your comp truck driving mates driving these vehicles on public tracks? Sounds like it from your posts...

yea like shooting things to but haven't had a chance beside the rang for a while.

you could argue that even with 33 or 35 you mess it up for people with 31.

still argue that if a comp truck is driven properly on same tracks as a tuck with 35 it will cause far less damage as a struggling truck with 35".

they drive in competitions, private properties and sometime in SF which will get bulldozed over at some stage anyway.

@Terry - you still can come wheeling with us just had a D4 and Jeep up with us at Gees Arm South there are nearly always several options for different vehicles

Personally I believe the more one radically modifies their truck the less fun they have as what was easy to get to and challenging now becomes boring, so they are always looking for more challenging tracks.

I completely agree with this!

I still maintain that the most fun I've ever had four wheel driving was in my old, stock, Tdi D1, with sway bars, 29" tyres and no lift... You actually had to pick a line, tracks that my cars walk up now, were fun and involved.

But to each their own

I'll just keep following the trucks on 35's, in my Rangie on 32's

Steve, it's the tyres mate, as has been said.

na mate tyres are a factor but I had same issue on KM2 and 33" just not so extreme, it definitely can be improved and I will get it sorted one way or another :-)

and I'm having always fun 4wd no matter what tyres but also love to modify improve and built my trucks so I have double fun
