Welcome pacman77, there's some "mudders" here so ask and enjoy the forum. I'm like Thumper, the only time I'm off road is when I turn into my driveway.....

welcome pacman

I have been off roading for quite a while. I would suggest a limited slip differential and or a winch to begin with, also maybe join a local 4x4 club and go on some runs with them to get the hang of things. A HiLift jack is also a good idea and a good tow strap. Have fun and keep the shiny side up.
