So tonight was the first time my wife drove the Jeep in a while (because yours truly was in no condition to drive). She mentioned that she does not like how it drives anymore because of all the mods and wants to improve the driving and said "as long as it is below $500 she is for it."

I took this and sweet more upgrads. What I have is in the sig and already planning on new gears/lockers but what else can improve its driving? I was thinking a steering stabilizer (yes have read the myths and stuff and what it does and does not do) but what else.

Thanks

 

Doesn't like what? The huge sidewall tires that have lots of flex? High center of gravity? Poor steering response?

 

I think the way it now handles specifically with the big tires. She didn't seem to mind to much when it was just the lift.

 

Was thinking that but was hoping to save for a Long Arm kit. Still a possibility....

 

Front lower control arms and a front adjustable trackbar did wonders for me. My front end feels much more stable over bumps and wanders much less on the road. Girlfriend approved as well!

 

KM2's are not E-rated tires. At least not in the sizes you are both running. Adjustable front lower control arms to increase castor may improve the loose handling.

 

We have pretty much the same setup as you do and just installed new TeraFlex Front Lower Control Arms. bob used to try to drift us into the next lane, but he's less apt to try to kill us now with the new control arms

mr aznjeepgirl just installed a new steering stabilizer last night, but we haven't had a chance to test it out yet.
