    Don’t wanna clog Mr. Nacho’s thread but I have a few suggestions in mind when your ready to part with your funds. Nothing to extreme was thinking a hidden winch setup, skids that’s about all for now you’ve got everything else addressed. It’s a clean simple setup without digging way into your retirement. Unless you wanna go all out then things change.:D

    Probably a good idea to move the banter over here. You’re thinking along the same line I am. I’m trying to keep it clean and simple. Won’t be wheeling hard but would be nice to have the winch and skids. I so want to go out to HF and give her a try but just don’t want to push it too hard and mess something up. Are there some moderate options out there?

    For armor and trails Yes.
    We had a STOCK first gen riding with us we didn’t push it hard. He picked his lines a little more careful and went a little slower but had the same amount of fun.

    Cool. May have to give it a try. Don’t shoot me but I have some Jeep friends who have a membership out there and they’ve been bugging me to go with them. May have to go unless I can get a TTC brother to go with me. :D

    On a speed note. Any idea why it seems that I have been bottoming out harder since I installed rear superbumps? I thought they were supposed to smooth things out...o_O

    No hate from me my dad has a jeep and I had so much fun in that at the beginning of the month.
    All I can think of is that the bump stop may be to tall for your application and making contact with the frame and not allowing full compression of the shock.

    That’s kinda what I was thinking. Only thing I could come up with. I’m looking forward to trying the airbag setup. Going to install them Thursday at Maner’s place. I will still hang on to the superbumps in case I want to go a different route. I love the superbumps in the front. Weird that the rears are not working with my setup. I have about 2 inches of lift in rear. :notsure:

    Good idea they may be for like a full leaf replacement for 3in or higher. I have timbrens in the rear and the seem tall for me but do the job.

    He’s got a little more weight out back now, the rtt and awning add enough weight that springs are a viable option.

    While very true that I do have new weight:D I bottom out on road dips empty. Really weird. I guess stock springs with AAL just suck
