I think it is time for a new project. Currently, I have a jeep grand (ZJ) 4.0L w/5" on short arms and 32's. Possible replacement:
*Wrangler 4.0L, probably long arms 5"+ and 35's, upgraded axles
* Another ZJ, 5.9L, long arms 5-6", 33's-35's (only 33's till $$ axles later on)
*RangeRover or Land Rover Disco, 3", 32's (at least )
This will be a DD as well. As far as the terrain, no rockcrawling (no rocks in LA), just muddy, swampy trails. Which would be the best, and why. Also, the cheaper the rig, the more $$ for suspension and axles. The TJ would be the cheapest to buy and modify I think.
So what would make the Disco or RR better or worse than the other choices? Which is better the disco or the RR.
Also, do they make long arm conversions for the land rovers, if not how do they run on short-arms.
