some of those tanks the military uses are pretty strong.

The only real answer: Whatever you build. No matter what you are thinking, you are not going to be able to buy a truck that is "heavy duty" enough for what you have in mind. Sure, there are nice CTD and Super Dutys that have really nice drivetrains, but basically, stock just doesn't cut it for most of us. About the most heavy duty thing I can think of is a Military Deuce or 5 ton, but that's not exactly 4 wheeling material. Deuce axles under a Jeep? Now there's heavy duty and wheel-able. Mild to wild, the only good answer is what you build custom to suit your specific needs. Me, I'll take a HEMMT!

I was going to suggest the Navistar CXT, but thats a little too new. Oh well, I tried.

rotarex · 12-13-2005, 04:22 PM

ok my bad, looks like a custom build is what i need to the truck i like, looks like i have to do a transmission rebuild to take the pounding

wilf · 12-13-2005, 04:37 PM

buy a piece of shit YJ and strip everything off it then buy new badass stuff to put on it.

rockota · 12-13-2005, 05:27 PM

Once again I'm baffled as to why no one ever mentions the ellusive 4.2 AMC I-6 swap for the Toyotas. Nearly a bolt in, tons of HP w/o mods, lighter than the 22re. Couple that with an uber strong Dana 30/35 combo, and the guy has exactly what he's looking for...

Good God man!

Your sentence structure and lack of proper subject-verb agreement is astounding. It is painful to read this reply.

You better return to school and study correct grammar.

Why do I keep laughing when I read that? Seems there are two schools here. Big, fullsize and heavy duty and small, light and light duty. I prefer the larger of the two.

I think he was ragging on stock Jeep drivetrain

Kia Sportage of course... the mitsubishi Vr4 is a close second, plus it has rear wheel steer stock.

Stupid ass fawking newbies.

I vote Ural. Parts are really available too.

(armor plating optional.)
