whats your wheel base

[spurge]

i am curious to hear what you guys think is the best wheel base for around the NW.

i just sold my cherokee and bought a chevy short bed and want to shorten the wheel base but want to know numbers first.

what do yall think?

 

[angelfly]

Personally I like 109-115 depends on what you wanna use it mostly for tho. . .

104" Is working pretty good for me.

My flatfender is 80" center to center long, and 68" outside to outside of tires wide.

I enjoy my wheelbase for the squirrel around factor.

Although I plan on keeping this rig, when I build another wheeler it will be closer to a Toyota in length. Less pucker factor on the really steep climbs, and easier to "pop up" over vertical obsticals.

If I only wheeled Eastern Wa I would rather have a Yota.

My yota and tow rig are within 5" of each other... :haha:

The yota is 128.5" currently but it may get shortened up an inch, we'll see how the front suspension shakes out...

 

[JOOP]

100" for me. Seems to be a pretty good WB.

 

[Damnyankee]

104.5 in mine. works well except in the really tight trails.. therefore the exo.

 

[Fordzuki]

Stretched it 11" to 87" wb, 66" wide.

 

[zukkev]

82.5"!!!:haha: Mine started out at 80.5"; moved the front forward 2 inches..:redneck:

 

[JAWS]

105'' cuz i made it that way:awesomework:

 

[Ty.]

Stretched it 11" to 87" wb, 66" wide.

He has a metric tape measure. He must of messed on on the convertion...:fawkdancesmiley:

 

[Boosted]

112 on the yota and 102 on the buggy.

Yea, I did some research. Interesting how short they used to be.

[Money Mark]

Toyota - 106

Buggy - 106

 

[Fordzuki]

Yep, 1930mm. That's why sami stuff looks like fullsize under it. :haha:

I think really, the wheelbase should be determined by the overall size of the rig. And having the same wheelbase as everybody else isn't always a good thing.

 

[4xrick]

108 at this time but its propably going to be around 112 when i finish up the new suspension.

 

[briejer]

116"
