My rig is a daily driver that I wheel about twice a month. Nothing too extreme, mostly some creek crossings and sand covered fire roads. What should be my next mods? I get around ok but could use a little more flex/traction without breaking the bank. I have plenty of ground clearance. Most of the trails are off camber with sand bottoms. any suggestions would help. Here are my current mods:

2007 2dr X
4.10 gears
6speed
2.5" TF w/ TF shocks
33" nitto tera grapplers
custom front bumper

 

Might be a stupid question but have you been disco'in the front sway bars? Somethin else you might want to conside but is maybe extending the brake lines. Other than that the only way I really know is bigger lift and longer shocks because your shocks and bumpstops are what really control your flex and articulation ooo and maybe some new control arms. And what tire pressure are you running when you go out??

 

I guess what really gets me is my buddies TJ rubicon rolls through most everything unlocked and sway bar connected. He has a procomp 4" and 33" MTZ's. Other than that he is stock. Does his suspension lift make that big of a difference or is it that when unlocked his diffs are limited slip where mine are open?

 

taller coils will allow you to have more flex. however, if you disconnect your swaybar links like you should, you will have plenty more flex without spending a dime.

 

it is probably his suspension, i had the procomp on my tj and i would go all over this island without any problems. my jk, well i now get hi-centered on some obstacles.

 

Ditto on the Swaybar disconnects. A little more then $100 and a bag of zip ties (thanks Eddie for the lesson on the newbie run )
