What’s better than spending a weekend exploring the outdoors and trails in this corner of the Southwest? How about camping out with a group of your friends?
We at Dixie 4 Wheel Drive often organize trail ride events to discover new trails in the area though we rarely camp out. However, some trails call for more investment, and that’s when spending a night outdoors comes in.
When it comes to off-roading, brakes play an essential role in ensuring your safety and the performance of your vehicle. If you're looking for a brake upgrade for your buggy, there are many options available that will suit your needs.
But before making any decisions, it is important to identify your reason for a brake upgrade and understand what upgrades are available. As well as general factors that will help make your decision easier.
Outfitting a 4x4 vehicle for off-roading can be a daunting task, but it doesn't have to be. At Dixie 4 Wheel Drive, the team of experts has been modifying 4x4s for decades, making them a nationally renowned off-road store, modification, and repair facility.
Here are five must-have modifications that the experts at Dixie 4 Wheel Drive recommend for any 4x4 vehicle looking to tackle rugged terrain:
Whether you’re looking to hone your off-roading skills or looking for alternative trails to the popular ones in Moab, Sand Hollow State Park delivers. This 20,000-acre park is a haven for those looking for rock-crawling adventure. With about 15,000 acres of dunes and numerous trails to explore, it’s no wonder Sand Mountain is one of our favorite places to go trail riding.
Off-roading and getting to explore the trails around St. George never gets old. That’s why we at Dixie 4 Wheel Drive like organizing our regular trail rides. It allows us to socialize with like-minded off-roaders while we explore alternative trails to the popular ones in Moab.
One of the best things about living in St. George is having access to excellent trails away from the crowded and more popular ones in Moab. These trails are great for those looking to polish their off-roading skills without any pressure or for those simply looking for a scenic ride on a day out with their families.
If you own a 4x4, then one of the many reasons that you probably love your vehicle is due to its extreme versatility.
Not only are they a lot of fun when you hit the trails or decide on some off-road adventures, but you can also use them in many practical applications such as towing other vehicles to safety, visiting the grocery store, plowing snow, hauling a large load, and of course driving in many different weather conditions.
If you’re looking for an off-road vehicle, then you have likely heard a lot about 4X4 (four-by-four) and 4WD (four-wheel drive) vehicles. The terms are often used interchangeably, but while both can be used for off-road driving, they aren’t exactly the same.
So, what is the difference between a 4X4 and 4WD?
Owning a 4x4 is one thing and owning one that can easily go off-road on any kind of rugged terrain without breaking down is another. If you want your four-wheeler to easily handle off-roading situations without getting you bogged, stuck or towed then you need to have some modifications done.
We’ve done plenty of custom 4x4 upgrades and modifications at Dixie 4 Wheel Drive and these 4 are guaranteed to boost your performance:
At Dixie 4 Wheel Drive, we love having fun out on the trails and with so many to explore around St. George, who can blame us? One thing we’ve learned is that nothing can ruin a good off-roading adventure faster than having your 4X4 breakdown. That’s why we insist on doing a maintenance check before heading out on the trails.
