Hi,

I am new to the forum here and I just recently purchased a 94 tracker, (I know its not as cool as a sidekick because its missing the sweet little Suzuki logo on the grill but they don't have a tracker forum, lol) and am looking to do some moderate off roading with it. I bought it with the intentions of taking it off road but still be able to drive it on road, its currently tagged and I use it as a back up vehicle for my daily driver. I mainly want to be able to go through four wheeler trails, logging trails, some smaller mud bogs, some rocks but nothing major, etc. I live in South Eastern PA and have alot of woods and farm land around here with four wheeler trails all over the place, and alot of stream crossings, small hill climbs etc. I was wondering what the best upgrades would be for going off road, I already got wheels and 235/75R15 tires but its stock other than that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

For starters just put on the 235's and hit some trails.  They can do quite a lot with just decent tires.  On my old Tracker I had a Zuk S on the front.  I got it from a damaged grill.

Welcome to the site & to Zuks!

I suggest you make sure you have good tow points front & rear in case you get stuck.
A rear locker will improve your traction significantly!
Armor is helpful too such as skid plates & rock sliders.
