[QUOTE="rpf500, post: 423565, member: 6870"] It did well Saturday. Definitely a much smoother ride. I am still irritated by it sitting lower in the rear, so I will have to address that sooner than I thought. I am thinking that I may try to back my preload off to only 1/2" in the front. That would lower me just a little but it would make it more level too. I am holding off totally finishing off the back until I add some comp cut corners. (will be on order by end of the day). My current set up has some "exo-cage" looking bar over the rear tires and I am loosing about 3" of up-travel the best I can tell. SO, don't want to finish bumps and limit straps until that is done. Anyway it felt very stable. Did some pretty crazy side hill stuff and never lifted a tire. I was going to change my dual rate stop rings half way through the day and forgot about it. I have them at 1" above the slider now. I was going to take them to 1/2". This was a fundraiser ride I attended so there were about 300+ rigs there. After looking at some of them I decided I needed mine to be even lower. So, who knows what I will do with it. May redo the whole damn thing this winter. I also saw some other YJ's and TJ's that had identical springs rates to mine and some within 50#'s. So, again, TacomaJD and EOR definitely sent me in the right direction!!! Overall, very happy with it. A few tweaks here and there and I think it will be very, very nice. Oh, and the wheel hop that I had before on big climbs is gone now. No surprise really on that. Went from 700#'s on each front corner to 400#. [/QUOTE]
