  • RTI Travel ramp

    just wondering if anyone has scored their prado's travel on a RTI travel ramp?

    i might have the chance to do it this week end, and was keen to compare scores.

    You might find these interesting:

    Ramp Travel Index (RTI)

    1) Patrol GU IV - 579
    2) Range Rover HSE - 561
    3) Prado 120 GXL - 546
    4) Discovery SE - 528
    5) Landcruiser 100 GXL - 498
    6) Jeep Grand Cherokee - 420
    7) Pathfinder ST-L - 384

    These are stats for 2005 model vehicles with standard suspension. Taken from 2005 4x4 of the year article in a "certain" 4x4 mag I won't mention but we all probably read....

    Also take a look here: Jcas24 has been up a ramp in his 90 series:

      Thanks for that. it will be interesting to see how the prado goes with the OME in it.

      has there been any other 120's on a ramp?

        I'd like to see an equally modified 90 and 120 on a ramp as a comparison. anyone know which flexs better?

              I remember reading that and seeing the scores. A 120s scoring 546 on the ramp and I only calculated 450 for my truck. I guess it does make a different the angle of the ramp and wheelbase. (Also wheelbase)

              my 90series (with rear swaybar disconnected) flexs the same as a 80series, both with 2inch lift.

                awesome. should be a good comparo for the 120 Vs. the 90 flex wise.

                hope to get some good pics for you guys.

                  do have the heavy duty OME set up in the back of your truck.

                        what do you mean by the front and rear scores and the total? theres no way a prado could get over 1000 by the way Ive seen the scores calculated before e.g. a 4.5" lifted wrangler got about 1100 and a Grand cherokee with a 5" long arm lift got about 1000... but Im no expert on ramping either.

                          What they done is made us drive forward the reverse up the ramp which gave us the two scores then they added them together for an overall score. Not sure if this is right as it the first one I have been to. Plus I was beaten by Steve's 120 not by much tho I'll let him post his results and hopefully he has some photo's mine didn't turn out that good.

                            Re: RTI Travel ramp

                            yeah, was a pretty big turnout on sunday.

                            i wasn't able to get any pics of my 120, but there is one posted up. and there's one of adam's 90 too.

                            anyway, forwards on the 30 degree ramp got me a 570.
                            reversing up the ramp, which really should of got me more, i actually scored less at 549.

                            my vitara's got more in reverse, at about 980 on the same ramp.

                            i actually thought i was going to get more, but the ramp isn't the show all of how your 4by performs off road. i've been so many places others have needed lockers for already.

                            these are the only pics i can find so far. doesn't really show much though.
