  • A couple SJ Forester XT's and a 1st Gen Honda Pilot drive through mostly green trails at Hollister Hills SVRA, and come back around on a couple blue trails to round out the day. Should give you an idea of how stock-ish crossovers would do. There's also a bit of drama on an unexpected obstacle on one of the blue trails, toward the end of the video.

    The independent suspension vehicles are probably not going to flip when they pick a wheel up... They don't lift wheels when the suspension is maxed out. They often lift wheels when there isn't enough weight for the suspension to compress because of the motion ratio of the suspension. Wranglers will pick up wheels when the suspension maxes out , especially when the anti sway bar is disconnected. With independent suspension , lifting a wheel does NOT mean that roll over is imminent...

    • @AustinH7
      @AustinH7 Рік тому

      But if they are at an extreme angle due to wheel lift, the weight of the leaning vehicle means a roll over is a possibility if the angle is great enough

      @@AustinH7 yeah anything can roll over. It takes a lot for the Cherokee Trailhawk. Arguably there aren't as many trailhawk videos as there are Wrangler videos, But I can't find a single Cherokee Trailhawk video with a rollover. Stand by and I'll send you a couple videos of pretty insane angles of renegades and Cherokee trailhawks where they don't tip over. They really look like they're going to but they don't. Amazingly stable.

      It gets pretty crazy how steep any of the Trailhawk Jeeps can tip. All of them are four wheel independent suspension whether it's the Grand Cherokee Renegade Compass or Cherokee. The other thing is... Every single Jeep is fully independent suspension except for the Wranglers and the gladiators. It's just an interesting thing to think about.
      I think it's funny how people say Toyota is IFS and Jeep is solid axle... I'm thinking... Actually... every single Jeep has FULL Independent suspension... Except for the Wrangler / Gladiator.
      I'll put money on the new Jeep Recon. Being full independent suspension also.

      Same! I have never ever taken my 17' FXT off road seriously. Just the occasional dirt road here and there. I'm hoping to take it here for my first time. Have you been? Would you recommend it especially for a beginner? I am hoping to get some 17 inch wheels with the falken wildpeak a/t trails (the less aggressive version of the at3) before going.

    • @DonutSixActual
      @DonutSixActual  Рік тому +2

      They definitely are not lol. I only broke a bumper tab luckily, but I did have my transmission replaced a year later (luckily under warranty). Shortly after this trip, I had installed a lift with 31” tires, and did a few of the popular Overlanding routes near me. The transmission couldn’t take the rock-crawly sections and steep uphills.
