So, basically I’m new to the whole off-roading thing and want to know what are the absolute essentials other than the obvious like a winch or tires. I have a 93’ S10 that is lifted a few inches with no actual off-roading parts. Anything helps and if you have any questions go ahead and ask
Like others have said, it depends on what kind of wheeling you are doing. If you are talking about the truck specifically, being a 93, I believe they had open diffs f/r. Even with lift and tires, open diffs only get you so far. Even the ZR2 with the G80 "locker" in the rear could benefit from an upgrade, and had an open front diff. Work a winch in after you get some seat time off-road in my opinion, as it will require some pretty serious mods to get one to fit and work properly.
