Lane AWD they run through the desert at 120+ and can still crawl good, but the solid axle buggies typically get through crawling sections better, were as the independent buggies run the open desert better, also 1 tons would be a lot cheaper than building an independent suspension that’s strong enough to handle rock crawling
I been wheeling for about 20 years now. Been to alot of pretty narly trails. I have about forgot how enjoyable the easier trails are. It's relaxing and puts a whole new perspective on it that I've lost over the years. Thanks 🖒I needed this.
Mike plz keep these crazy cheap/affordable builds going, your imagination has us hooked on what you can accomplish w/o fear or limits. You have started something & were hooked, your possesd Tahoe/blazer thing made that Toyota look tired..
Nah that's why you have friends there, hook it up and get pulled out, or rig it the best you can if you can and limp it out.. off roading ppl are always willing to lend a hand however they can, or in my experience they have.
@@cornbreadfoutch6565 Ive heard and seen some inventive repairs on the trail. welding with leads coming off the alternator, pulling a spark plug using the engine to air up a tire. pulling the rear driveline and limping it out in front wheel drive

Yuppie Once a year Mall Crawlin Wheelers.......We go Jeepin everyday out here in Western Pa. Remember the best J is the XJ.....Wranglers are for cheer leaders.
Wrangler owner here. Cheerleaders? Yup had a bunch in my wrangler. Passed an XJ the other day with a bunch of dudes in it. Boy were they mad! No frame and no girls....
Notice the Jeeps with flat looking tires creeping over everything? It's called rock crawling not rock racing. Air down your tires........a LOT. 4LOW, go slow. an old-timer told me a long time ago if you've never rolled a tire off the bead you are running too much air :-) 4low=crawling=slow=less breakage
For all of those commenting on all the mistakes made...at least he's out there and he's over the moon excited. Guarantee you he learned a half-dozen things he'll do different next time -- loved the vid.
This video right here! Yes please!! 😎🔥💪🏾👍🏾 I love how all the Jeeps methodically & gracefully articulate over the tundra. Then here comes 717, full send! 🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣
The blazer is obviously his beater ride for chopping parts off of it, jumping to fold fenders, and now maybe to take thrashing on the trail. The jeep would be a better trail vehicle. If he likes it and wants to do it more he should probably go that route.
My dad had on old 80 with 1 tons front and rear and 40” swampers, thing was badass, now he has a YJ fully built cage, 1 tons, 42s” bfg crawlers, got the old dodge Cummins sitting up on some 35s it’s relatively capable for what it is. But anyways those landcruisers are extremely rare here in the US as a matter of fact I believe my dads is the only one I’ve ever seen in person lol
My comment exactly lol lowering the tires will smooth it out a lot if u make em soft enough and he'd have a much easier time in low range and its much easier on the truck.
Doing the old bowtie proud. Lived in PA all my life and I'm 50 now. I know where you guys are and yes the camera doesn't do it justice. Making me miss my beastly 1975 4x4 Suburban with a 454!!

Time to turn the blazer in to a mud eating rockcrawling machine... to be fair the blazer is already a beast

Now time for solid axle, lockers, coil-overs, Atlas transfer case, stretch the wheel base. Full send build!
I agree, it's perfect for that type of build.
Put it on a Humvee chassis and get 4 wheel steer
@Lane AWD
Solid axles are MUCH better for this type of off roading.

Hell yeah man. So glad you got into more off-road content. That blazer needs 37s man. Come on!
You should put a tire rack in the back of the blazer like you did on the dmax for a spare tire
If it wasnt a budget build he should lift it with a Dana 60s front and rear and a bigger tire but damnit, it's a budget build!

WELD THE FRONT AND REAR DIFF. SINCE U TRAILER IT ANYWASE and use 4Low for that kinda trail.
