AllOffroad 4x4 | 4wd Sand Driving Tutorial 4: Expert Tips from a 4WD Trainer | Ultimate Tutorial @AlloffroadAu | Uploaded March 2020 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
In this comprehensive video, we'll cover a wide range of subjects to help you master the art of sand driving. Starting with recommended basic vehicle modifications, we'll explore the enhancements that can significantly improve your off-road performance. Discover the essential recovery gear you should have on hand to tackle any situation that may arise.

One of the most critical aspects of sand driving is understanding tire pressure. I'll guide you through determining the optimal tire pressure and share techniques on how to drive on low pressure. Learn the reasons why low pressure is advantageous and its impact on different types of terrain, including gravel, on-road conditions, corrugations, and even desert sand.

As we venture deeper into the tutorial, I'll delve into various topics such as throttle control, the role of ESC (Electronic Stability Control) and traction control systems, and the importance of selecting the appropriate high or low range for different sand-driving situations.

We'll also address common queries, including whether diff locks are necessary for sand driving and the differences between automatic and manual transmissions in off-road environments. Understanding the nuances of tire construction, including all-terrain (AT), mud-terrain (MT), and road tires, will help you make informed choices based on your specific needs.

Exploring the impact of tire sizes, rim sizes, tire compounds, and the suitability of smaller tires for beach or desert driving, we'll equip you with the knowledge needed to optimise your sand driving experience.
