To build a good offroad machine, doesn't matter if it will be high speed trophy truck or just trail truck, you will need basics:
1. Higher suspnession, it depends on your wallet thickness ;) You can use spacers for suspenssion which I don't recommend. Or just buy longer springs and leafs, also It always better to buy longer shock absorbers:
2. You can lift your body from frame for some mm. This one is easy and not so expensive. You can earn more space for bigger wheels and have more clearence on bottom.
3. Spare wheel carrier, Remember to always have minimum 1 spare wheel for you car when offroading.
You can put the wheel on storage area or buy extra carrier, just take a look on trophy trucks they always have 4 spare wheels because time is money for them!
4. Keep tuned!
