In the previous article, we talked about the models and performance of off-road vehicles in the mainstream market, and this article shared practical driving tips and modification tips.
1.Dealing with complex terrain
-Sand/snow: Lower the tire pressure to 5.0-0.0 bar to increase the contact area, and enable the low-speed 4WD mode to avoid crashing due to rapid acceleration.
-Drive on slopes: Keep the vehicle's center of gravity balanced, be cautious when rolling more than 20°, and improve stability by installing anti-roll bars or ROPS (rollover protection structure).
2.Drive mode selection
- Most new models (e.g. Tank 300) offer a multi-terrain mode (rock, mud, sand, etc.) that automatically adjusts the power delivery and electronic limited slip strategy according to road conditions.
3.Emergency response
- Equipped with trailer soft shackles (such as Yunliang off-road rescue kits) instead of traditional U-shaped buckles, which is lighter in weight and easy to disassemble, improving the efficiency of getting out of trouble.

### Third, the experience of off-road vehicle modification: the balance between legality and functionality
#### 1.Basic Retrofit Priority
-Protection upgrades: Equipped with forged upper arm and chassis guard plate to reduce the impact of key components on rough roads.
-Lighting system: Rigid Industries LED spotlights can improve visibility at night, but care needs to be taken to ensure that they are installed in such a way as not to compromise regulatory compliance.
#### 2.Performance enhancement programs
-Suspension system: Replace the nitrogen shock absorber and increase the suspension travel (such as the Yunliang suspension transmission series), taking into account comfort and passability.
-Motivation increases: Diesel models can be equipped with an external computer to optimize the ECU, and gasoline vehicles are recommended to upgrade the intake/exhaust system, but they need to match the original factory warranty policy.
#### 3.Style meets function
-Chinese-style refurbishment culture: Yunliang off-road advocates a "high-profile and unassuming" style, such as the Tank 300 Ranger Edition that integrates traditional elements with modern technology to avoid overly exaggerated overseas styles.
-Original factory cooperation modification: Choose legally modified models such as the Great Wall Cannon Black Bullet and the Jiangling Avenue Flying General to avoid the risk of annual inspection.
