    Reasoning is that the length of the DCLB doesn't suit offroading .

    Just too long. It's only 12" but compared to the height and width it's a lot.

    Yes it is, but its what I bought, my lack of research makes it so I have to deal with my choice. Lol. But I'm making it work, I know there are more dclb's that wheel a lot.

    The long wheelbase in the DC/LB makes it more likely to bottom out while traversing dunes, moguls, etc. Not ideal for offroad. Although the longer wheelbase increases ride quality on the road. Thus the reason there is not a DC/SB version of the TRD Sport.

    Obviously it's because the truck is very long.

    I'm not following you

    OP , a locker would be nice as an option in the DCLB Sport I think , but obviously the Offroad is more suited to trails
