[@babybirdhome]

The other animated illustration got this backwards too. It’s an easy mistake to make. Even his narration said it’s easier for the engine to turn the wheels when it’s turning slower. He knows what the concepts are but he doesn’t understand them yet. I’m not going to knock the video for him being an enthusiast because we all start out thinking some dumb or incorrect things. But I will knock it over the “close to 90 degrees” thing because that was just complete BS. It isn’t hard to look up what kind of inclines an offroad vehicle can climb unassisted, and it doesn’t get better at steeper climbs with bigger diameter wheels that raise its center of gravity either.

Independent suspension: "This makes for a smoother ride, better handling, and *better fuel economy*" Bronco with independent front suspension and worse fuel economy than the Wrangler: "Bonjour" Seriously tho. Fuel economy is not impacted by the suspension design as much as you think. It's overall weight and aerodynamics that plays the bigger parts. I guess you can say a vehicle with an all-independent suspension *can* have a "cleaner" (and thus, more aerodynamic) underside, but when talking about vehicles that tip the scales at 3 tons and with the aerodynamics of a barn, suspension design isn't gonna change much.

[@lanceislateagain]

@@Michael-fi6ve ah, yes, I did not think of that. Although, with serious off-roaders such as the Bronco, the independent suspension is usually beefed up to the point of having similar weight anyway, and it's not like the regular front wheel drive based CUVs were ever designed with a solid axle in mind. Perhaps a lighter weight vehicle that had both suspension types would be more comparable; only vehicle that comes to mind is the Mustang, which had at one point a solid rear axle before switching to full independent if I'm not mistaken.

[@nageorgiou2]

@@lanceislateagain Another point as well, IFS can make a vehicle ride much lower than a live axle. The amount of travel IFS needs is minimal, whereas live axles essentially need the entire underside of the car, up to the top of the suspension travel, to move.

An unlimited budget and professional personal shop helps too. It can be an expensive activity when things things go wrong. And they do go wrong in a hurry.

Just know that it can get expensive if you don't know what you are doing in the garage or on the trail.

[@apersonontheinternet8006]

Words of wisdom right here. People would get mad when we wouldn't let them up the red or black trails. We gave out different stickers for those that trailered in and those that drove in, if you drove in you were not going down those trails because you probably weren't getting parts for a couple of days if you broke something and breaking things was very much in the cards on these trails. A lot of us members had spare Jeeps and spare parts but we would basically give loaner parts to get people off the trails and out of the valley but some people would get real indignant real fast and act like we owed them something for them breaking their own stuff even though they signed a waiver at the gate.

Goes to show that looking before you leap is a lot smarter than feeling lucky you didn’t roll off a cliff or have the bike fall on top of you, if I saw what I was riding into I would never have ever even thought about doing what I did that day, but sometimes the risk you take then pays off in the future and this my friends is where my lesson learned got me: don’t take unnecessary risks without knowing the full extent of what the consequences could be. I’ve been more cautious than ever before checking every single hill or any sketchy part of a trail way before I “just send it”. Be safe and enjoy the ride no matter what you’re cruising around on and don’t go pushing your limits further than you should, and if you do just scope out the area you will be in and the place you’re gonna do something risky first before you get yourself hurt all because of an unobserved obstacle in your path. All I’m saying is ride smart get your area checked out then ride like a mad man and have all the fun you can after you know the lay of the land and you are familiar with your paths you’ll be riding on and you’ll hardly ever have a bad time

I've been kinda of a Jeep freak all my life, on road, off road, plowing, towing, etc... and I've owned quite a few. Well, I just bought an FJ. The reason was that my last two Jeeps both rotted badly no matter how diligent I was to wash and treat the frame and body panels. My 1993 door hinges rotted apart, while the underneath was perfect. It was only five years old at the time. My 1997 was rotting, then I added structural steel to the frame and rear suspension members, and really tried to keep up with it every year. Two months ago it couldn't pass state inspection. So, I was checking out an FJ and made the switch. I know they rust too, but this one is solid. So, let's see what happens.

So at what angles does the oil sump stop working?

[@justinlabarge8178]

Open differentials give the same torque to each wheel, not more torque to the spinning wheel. It just takes less torque to spin it than a wheel with traction, so the traction wheels is stationary, but it still is trying to spin. Limited/locking diffs give the same speed to each wheel, unequal power.

[@reflex3843]

Open differentials only give the same amount of power to each wheel if both wheels need the same amount of power to be spun. In this example with one wheel in the air, the other wheel on the ground wouldn't move one bit, meaning that no power goes to the grounded wheel and all power goes to the airborne wheel.

Less approach angle will not DEMOLISH the front end as shown. Approach is slow hence if bumper touches it will scratch with the rock/obstacle. Not collide.

[@jironmeister]

No stock Jeep has been used to climb... But independent suspension HMMWV can.

[@jeepstertj556]

Jeep literally climbed this thing with a stock grand cherokee, wranglers do it all day long. Every jeep with a trail rated badge is capable enough to go up the Rubicon or moab in factory form

So you kinda had the right idea with some of the principals but your explanations were a bit wrong, here's some corrections for future reference. Differentials - A differential is, in its simplest terms, a device that controls the amount of differential rotation speeds of wheels on the same axle (left/right). If we picture two wheels following the radius of a corner we notice that the outside wheel travels a greater distance in the same time as the inside wheel, as such the outside wheel needs to rotate faster in order to complete the maneuver without sliding. To facilitate this in a vehicle we need what is called an open differential where both driven wheels can rotate at greatly different speeds. The open differential allows much greater maneuverability but the downside is that force is always looking for the easy way out so if one wheel is easier to spin than the other (such as you might find if a wheel is suspended in the air or on loose terrain) it'll spin the easy wheel while providing little to no torque to the wheel with traction and therefore driving forward/backward will be impossible. In situations where maintaining drive is the primary concern and tight steering is of less concern then we need a locking differential which forces the driven wheels to rotate at the same speed regardless of load/traction. There is also a third option which is more common on sports cars called a limited slip differential (LSD) where the driven wheels can rotate at different speeds but only up to a certain point, this strikes a balance between maneuverability and traction. Gears - The basic principle of gearing is that if you are transferring rotation speed between two gears then the size of the input and output cog affects output torque/speed. For the sake of this analogy the engine will be the input and the driveshaft will be the output. If the output gear is larger than the input then the output speed will be reduced but the torque will be increased. If the output gear is twice the size of the input then for every 2 rotations of the input there will be 1 rotation of the output but the torque will be doubled (not exactly doubled due to energy lost to heat/noise etc. but we'll ignore those for now). Conversely the opposite is true if the output gear is smaller than the input gear, the output will spin faster but torque will be reduced. For rock climbing you need maximum torque but speed is unimportant so you want to gear down the output as much as possible, for efficient driving on highways you want to gear up the output as much as you can get away with so you can cover more distance using the same amount of engine rotations.

[@samsungskater]

meh, whistlin' deisel took a stock hilux up hells gate. Ole Casey overbuilt the crap outta that rubi.

[@machieltipo]

Just a note, on a bicycle cassette, the largest rear gear gives the most torque. The stock video used suggested that the smaller gears give the most torque.

[@kevinba7981]

Let’s be honest , as a mechanical engineer perspective. Driving vertical just damaged the engine because the oil stays at the bottom for the whole time. Engine will get overheated and will get damaged in the long run

[@80PercentAshamedOfU]

Do off-road guys not install dry-sump systems? I would hope so at least.

[@JP1050x]

Engine oil gets pumped through the system, and is under pressure. It doesn’t just dry out at extreme angles. Otherwise, vehicles would not work in the extreme street angles of San Francisco. In engineering terms, engine systems are built to spec.

[@Wuzzup129]

Didn't know Jeeps had lawnmower engines. :V

@@JP1050x do you know what a dry sump system is?

@@BussinBronco why does it matter if it’s a dry sump or wet sump? In normal driving it’ll work the same. Same goes for going up a grade, which is the topic of the video.

with that automatic transmission and that powerful engine..you never gotta worry about burning clutch to just crawl very slow ..

[@dddon513]

Bicycle explanation: "it's like selecting lower and lower gears on a bicycle to get up steeper hills easier" Shows bike shifting into higher and higher gears, which would make it harder and harder.
