Below are some good links about offroad driving. If you are new to the sport (as am I) please read this information. It has given me a wealth of knowledge, and has spared me the embarasment of asking stupid questions that I could have easily answered myself with a MINIMUM of research. Enjoy  4x4 Related Reading (offroaders.com) - Excellent information in a very straightforward format. Includes basic 4wd topics, CB's, technical information, etc. http://www.offroaders.com/info/4x4-faq.htm 4X4NOW 4-Wheeling "How-To" http://www.4x4now.com/4wht.htm 4x4 Glossary http://4wd.sofcom.com/FAQ.html Off-Road Driving Info Sheet and FAQ (ORDFAQ) http://www.offroaders.com/info/4x4-faq.htm ------------------ :wq! 2000 Silver Ice SE 4x4 5Speed Southeast Xterra Club wqbang@southeastxterraclub.org

Like anything will even fit in the glove box... so much information, such a little box. XOC is the best place to get info!

Just wanted to say the links were great...and a great idea...especially for us FNG's to the site. I probably didn't need to tell you this, but I figured I would so I could get one post closer to losing that lurker title.  ------------------ Sherm near Cincinnati 2000 Silver Ice XE V6 4x4

This thread should have a quick link at the top between INFO and CLUBS.
I think 4x4now has some of the best info you can get.

Do yourself a favor and take off the sidebars before offroading in rock terrain, It will save you from crying when you see them bent against your sidebody.

This information is just too useful to let it be shuffled to the bottom of the pile. Here actually something to add to it though. Offroading Basics Video With the information in this thread you can go 4-wheeling better than 80% of the 4-wheelers out there.
