    I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. WJ is the BEST budget crawler as fas as Jeeps go.

    I'm lucky enough to have a 92 xj on 35s and 98zj on 33s. So this was a great video for me to watch....looked like they both should have aired down more....I run cooper's cheapest I could find. 10 to 12lbs air pressure no bead locks.....awesome video as always brother 🎉🎉🎉🎉

    WJ def seemed to have a bit more ground clearance at the transfer case. But the XJ DEFINITELY needed to air down, especially with the beadlocks.

    • @TrailMilitia
      @TrailMilitia  Год назад +1

      Yea I was going to have them go below 10 but I figured that’s the average joes air down number

    • @Blood1Zero
      @Blood1Zero Год назад

      ​@TrailMilitia the xj is so light you have to air down more than other rigs. I run my xj at 10psi with no bead locks on 35s.

    5 minutes in and i am wondering why the xj was in high range. Next thing is what psi are they running?
    I am happy to see a comparison with similar rigs. V8s, same size tires, similar wheel base.

    Definitely couldn’t get any grip with the pats, but also looked like both were running too much PSI. I also think maybe Steven is more experienced driver and had a lot better throttle control. Definitely WJ for the win!

    I used to run a Toyota landcruiser 75 series here in Australia on 37’s Iv now got a WJ and 2 XJ’s 95 & 97 the xj’s struggle due to being light but… very very capable overall going to sell the Wj soon to put all the $ into the 97 xJ, I guess the XJ’s attract the budget build scene a lot better, hard to compare in my eyes.
    The WJ costs were huge to build a capable rig, no one wants XJ’s In Oz.

  • @miguelgarcia4216
    @miguelgarcia4216 Год назад +2

    The WJ definitely took it this time, but it would be cool to see the XJ come back with different tires for a rematch and see why tires also make a big difference when crawling

      Both running 44s. And I assume same size tire with beadlocks. I’d say they are pretty evenly matched.

    • @k3nj33zy
      @k3nj33zy Год назад

      @TrailMilitia not doubting the pressure. Going off my previous comment if one rig is heavier then another the heavier rig is gonna have more sidewall flex then the other granted they or both the same load range on a tire. An extreme example, is a f250 at 15 psi is gonna have a bigger foot print then a toyota tacoma at 15 psi.

    Looks to me like the WJ was air down to about 12 to 15 pounds and the XJ was hair down from 35 to 32 pounds. That might be the problem basically the same platform. Only real difference is one has coils in the rear and one has leaf springs.

    • @TrailMilitia
      @TrailMilitia  Год назад

      I know its a common thread on here but they were both between 8-12 PSI and yes the rear coils are the main difference. Tires all react different which is why Patagonias are not my favorite

    Put all the 💰 in the LS swap & had no budget left for the tires??? Also Xj's are really light so with 37's they need to air down to 7 PSI to really get some squish in the tire. However, I know XJ's fuck so I say change out the tires & run it back!!!🔥 round✌️🔥 "The Redemption Run"
