I notice a lot of drivers allow excessive wheel spin eg: the first Jimny. Notice the other drivers just took their time and they made it up easy … old rule of thumb in off-road driving is “As slow as possible and as fast as necessary”
A Britain depends if you have lockers. The jeep has front and rear so it can go nice and slow. The suzuki has open diffs so the only option is to get a bunch of momentum.
I'm currently shopping for one at the moment, one shows up to my local offroad meets, he runs fairly stock I think a 50mm lift and some slightly bigger BFG MTs, the thing is like a little mountain goat, the only time I've seen him get in grief is when he tried to tow a Landrover out and dug himself in :D. I got sick to death of my pajeros stupid electric/vacuum 4wd system malfunctioning.
Attention world.... Lockers are everything when offroading. Apples vs oranges when you see videos like this. The rubicon is awesome, period. But it wouldnt be half what it is, without the lockers.
Todd P. They lock the axle making both tires spin. Without them only the tire that is easier to spin will get power. If you watch the Jimmys only on tire spins when they lose traction.
Getting a Jimny and installing a rear locking diff and lift kit will still cost a lot less than a stock Rubicon the same age. Suzukis will get you further off road for the money though they'll never tow as much or carry the same payload purely because they're smaller and lighter. As a result of having no centre differential, a Jimny must have one wheel on each axle slipping to lose drive. This is easy enough to do when diagonally opposite wheels are carrying most of the weight as in the trail in the video. Careful line choice and/or more axle articulation might do the job to get through, but locking the rear diff will definitely do it. Since the engine weight keeps the front wheels on the ground, usually a rear wheel is the first to lift, so locking the rear diff keeps the drive going to the rear wheel on the ground and the car stays moving. Without the locking diff the traction force is limited to twice the friction at the lightest loaded front wheel is generating (Which is going to be pretty low while pointed uphill). The rear wheel on the ground does nothing at all to drive the car forward until the rear differential is locked.
Cost wise the jimmy is an awesome little rig. It’s a simple yet effective 4x4. The rubicon costs a lot more because it has a lot more off road stuff on it
or you could say the jimney is out of place. it doesnt belong next to a rubicon. that would solve your complaint. if its going to compete against a rubicon then it must face the consequences.
Wei-En Lee I tend not to agree. If your Jimny's modifications are well implemented and thought out then there's no reason why they shouldn't be just as capable.
What is the point of this/?? With "lockers" on my almost stock Samurai, I can follow a Rubicon anywhere... But The jeep can't follow the Samurai anywhere. >Samurai 2,200 pounds Rubicon 4,500 pounds... Running the same tires, it's no contest
С каким олимпийским спокойствием рубикон преодолевает!!! браво!!!
The diff locker makes the difference here, no doubt.

I think you need also to consider that the diff ratios and the type of transfer box make a huge difference too.
All about the lockers front and rear in the Rubi.
Wow... I've just bought a Jimny... I thought that such driving was well beyond it. Ok, I've got some ambitions now.
Are you in the US?
They don't have the Jimny as far as I know

JImny have vacuum operated front wheel engage also.

Those Jimnys don't even have traction control like the new ones.
The pink one half way through shows the difference lockers make.
I plan on moving to the Philippines next year, and will buy a 2017 Jimny. So I have to ask - what are "lockers"?

Lockers are second to articulation...

The jeep has lockers while the Jimmy has open diffs. So it's an unfair match

@@healthyamerican if i lift the jimny and install lockers, it's still half the price of the rubicon
@@healthyamerican wrong you put lockers and then see the magic happen
rear diff locker....job done
vaca lola
Only rear locker or front and rear?
размеры колес и опыт водителя очень много значит... Так что я бы не назвал это соревнованием между этими Джипами
I'm a happy owner of my 2012 Jimny 1.3JLX heavily modified. But those Rubicon are more capable offroading vehicle no doubt.
Wei-En Lee I tend not to agree. If your Jimny's modifications are well implemented and thought out then there's no reason why they shouldn't be just as capable.
@@jonnyweston what would you advice on upgrades to a jimney. Looking into buying one soon.
locker = up you go..!
if the zooks had lockers they would be just a capable
Why Suzuki havent at least put limited slip diffs in is anybodies guess, this could just aswel be a Lada Vid
What's the point of off roading with an open diff? To play with momentum?
Just to fuck your car
@@arthuritchybollix5064 🤣🤣🤣
Think the issue with the jimny here is the ground clearance in much cases
These Jimnys are amazing 4x4s
auto vs standar? or not?
it's all about technique
def not, it´s all about difflocks
True.. i have a Jimny and i could have done it in one sitting ..other Jimny drivers here have very poor technique
@2:53 pink jimny!!!!
damn cool
You can have the best truck in the world but if you're a bad driver you will not enjoy it as a professional driver.
Looks like a heck of a obstacle
But the jeep makes it look easy
Come on let the jimmys have the same lift. Jeep has more lift kit..Not fair
In this case, lift had nothing to do, it's important, but the key there was the diff lockers.
@@JeffSanchez19 the second key is tire
lockers it's the only way.
A skilled driver would have made it to the top without diff locks
No es el auto, es el conductor
На блоках идут без них там делать нечего!
Dear presenter, bhai pehle naak saaf kar na
Klo bagi Rubicon Medan seperti itu jelas sangat mudah, tp bagi Suzuki Jimny lumayan sangat berat..
Nope, di Video Rubicon pakai Locker, sedangkan Jimny tidak
Rubicon pakai locker itu standardnya kah?
Poor little Jiminy getting joyridden and smashed to fck
Comparison? One is successful, the other fails!
Those jimnys with that make it look eazy is because they installed lockers, its an aftermarket locker. ARB brand is my suggestion.
rubicon have lockers! first jimny no (open diff)
Jeeps shit on Suzukis any day of the week! 😂
tires n technique
Đúng chất jeep
lost in the tire and chassis
JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP
What is the point of this/?? With "lockers" on my almost stock Samurai, I can follow a Rubicon anywhere... But The jeep can't follow the Samurai anywhere.
>Samurai 2,200 pounds Rubicon 4,500 pounds... Running the same tires, it's no contest
All was the driver
vai mesmo do braço e pneus kkk
a questao é bloqueio de diferencial. Os jimnys nao tem de fábrica e os rubicons têm. Eh injusta a comparação.
Car shoulder be touched the ground
Jimny fans complaining about what the weakness of a jimny. Just Buy a Jeep. Simple.
Muneebe jeep edutho
Yo con mi samurai subo asta de reversa
