New Forum for 2WD offroaders
Hey guys this is a new sub forum for 2wd offroaders, we're gonna try it out for a while and see how much traffic we get, please keep it on the same topic as the offroad forum, but for 2wd lifted trucks.

Re: New Forum for 2WD offroaders
sweet, good idea ive been trying to get some info so i can lift my 2wd sierra. and every where i look every body is talking about 4x4 trucks. do you think some one can come up with a chart like they did for 4x4 trucks on what size lift you need to use to fit whatever size tire you wanted to run. for 2wd instead of 4x4

I am not a big fan of this forum because now it seems more cluttered with subforums... just my input

Common sense says of course not...Common sense also says you cant mob a rockcrawler at 60mph+ through some whoops. Thats why you build it for what its for. Go crawl back in your hole...

Attitude wasn't necessary, just an expanation of what you would do offroad in a 2wd truck would have been fine...

Man, don't come to the Offroad 2WD forum and talk mess and then get offended when someone gives it right back to you. Have you ever heard of Pre-runners? Ya know, 2WD trucks driving fast in the desert sands? Two wheel offroading just requires a little more skill and care. 4x4 is cool, but it'll only get you more stuck.

Re: New Forum for 2WD offroaders
Stop whoring this thread. Different strokes for different folks. Learn to disagree, it's part of life. Both styles of offroading are completely different, if you don't like it, go somewhere else and don't read about the 2wd forum. It's not that hard....

Re: New Forum for 2WD offroaders
I'm just trying to find out what you do when you go offroad with 2WD. No postwhoring. Usually when you get on rocks offroad in 2WD, you go nowhere, so I was wondering what people do. And 2wd doesn't do deep sand either.

Re: New Forum for 2WD offroaders
Actually i am concerned about this, so if i lift my 2wd silverado, i can actually take it to the mud and sand, and offroad with it. I didn't think that was possible.
