How Jeeps Climb 'Verticals' | Carsplainers | Insider Cars

  • TH-cam is filled with viral videos of Jeeps scaling vertical rock walls. While most of these vehicles are modified, there's a reason Jeeps are so often the choice of these extreme off-roaders, or rock crawlers. From their unmatched standard features to the number of ways they can be modified, Jeeps are the perfect tool for crawling.
    In this video we refer to rock walls as "vertical walls", this is misstated. While the rock walls shown in the video are steep, they are not at a 90 degree angle. Also, at 4:21 we showed a cyclist hill-climbing easier by shifting upward on their rear gear cluster. A cyclist climbing hills would ideally shift downward on the rear gear cluster, and lower on the bicycle's chainrings. Insider regrets the error.

      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.

      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.

    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.

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.

    Now I’ve gotta say I’ve taken my Suzuki ltz 250 up a more or less vertical washout only slightly more thanAn inch of the wheel base of my quad At its peak with a sheer drop off to my left and right side I honestly don’t know how I kept it lined up after I saw what I only narrowly missed when I got to the top and on stable ground. 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

    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
      @reflex3843 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      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.

    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.
