JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON: The story

4x4 & ATV
Written by Administrator
Monday, 17 May 2010
I found this very interesting article about the Wrangler Rubicon on www.jpmagazine.com It details its Off Road capabilities and how the project nearly bit the dust in a 4x4 market where serious Off Roaders are disappearing from the catalogues. The RUBICON is a "Trail-Ready" machine, it outstands every other mass-production 4x4 in trail equipment. Dana.44 axles, Front and Rear lockers and even and disconnectable front Sway-Bar for more flexibilty. Forget about the huge cost and hassle of installing ARB lockers, skid plates etc... You just turn the Rubicon keys and it will take you anywhere. Thank you for reading.

BEADLOCKS explained

4x4 & ATV
Written by elie hajj
Tuesday, 30 March 2010
When on difficult terrain, the pressure of the tire is occasionally lowered to insure a bigger contact area with the ground. In normal conditions, the pressure inside is enough to lock the tire on the rim and insure that the two work in perfect sync. When the pressure is lowered, as mentioned before, the possibility increases that the rim will spin without the tire, creating a flat. What the locks, of any sort, generally push the tires onto the rims and insure that the low pressure will not become a problem. The beadlock options divide in two main classes: internal and external. The external ones will bolt on the existing rim (given it’s prior modification) or will incorporate the system at purchase. What it effectively does is clamp the tire in between the outer and inner rings, thus creating an excellent contact area for the tire not to slip off. On the other hand, the inner locks, which are essentially invisible are nothing more than high pressure tubes that push the bead of the tire against the wheel, insuring that it won’t move. It’s generally fabricated from a strong polyester which will keep the beadlock from inflating too much inside the tire. Add Comment (0)

Off road tire pressure

It is quite common to decrease the air pressure in tires to increase off roads capabilities. By airing down you enlarge the tire footprint... ...the larger the tire the bigger footprint you gain! When driving on snow and sand it is necessary to reduce the air pressure. On rough gravel tracks it can also be advantageous, because the ride is so much softer and easier for the passengers and the vehicle itself. It varies between tire brands how effective airing down is. Always keep in mind that the thin sided tires can more easily be cut by sharp stones! Tire manufactures do not guarantee using their tires with low pressure. However it is just so much more fun! Air pressure is usually measured in pounds/square inch (psi). The largest tires (38" and 44") can go as low as 3 psi (and even lower in extreme situations). The smaller tires should not have less than 5 or 6 psi . Keep in mind that heat is a problem. Rubber wear and tear increases in the heat. This is not a problem when driving on soft snow, but can be an issue on hard snow and hot sand. Also the danger of the tire falling off the wheel increases. One solution is to glue the tire to the wheel! During the trip it is highly recommended that you keep an eye on the tire pressure. Because the pressures changes depending on how high you are from sea level and if you are in low- or high-pressure weather. Here's a video that shows "0" psi tires on snow. Add Comment (0)

After a long and cold offroad day at Bkoufa , Chady Alwan got stuck with his bob tail range rover in a frozen lake. And since it was so hard to pull it out, the survivor Patrick Alwan dived in the pool with a temperature of five degrees below zero to tie the cable!!!
