Why independent suspension is no good off road

Because it gives you cr*p axle articulation: rear left: and front right: have both dropped into a hole and lost all traction ...end of forward motion (unless you have difflocks ...heehee:D) This is the reason why most "soft roaders" don't make it far once off the road
