New guy here to the forum. Just picked up a TJ after a few years Jeepless. Don't ask me why but I sold a YJ several years ago and regretted it ever since. Anyway, here's my newest trapping/huntin rig. I'll be asking a lot of dumb questions so be ready and thanks for having me!

Like your Sahara.
Manual or auto?

That’s slick !

Welcome aboard! Nice looking pond in the background. Kill any ducks off it?

It's been known to produce some birds. This time of year it's loaded with snows. Sometimes solid white bank to bank and noisy as hell.

Welcome to the forum. Jeeps make for great hunting vehicles.

Like the YJ better it was green. Hard to hide with white

Thank you. Auto.

Aw c'mon really? ............ YJ ?

Welcome to the forum, good looking rig! Looks very similar to mine.

Interesting! I appreciate a clean YJ, but I never liked the way they rode with the leaf springs personally.

To be honest the Tj doesn't ride much better than my Yj did. That's the main reason I'm here. Gotta read up on some tricks of the trade starting with tires. Might down size.

With that comment, start with all the shocks... I recommend the bilstein brand.

New shocks from a reputable manufacturer (I run Bilstein 5100s), 26-28 psi in the tires (this is the most important thing by far), and the right load range for the tires, and you'll be riding like a Cadillac.

A poor quality lift kit on a TJ (i.e. Rough Country) and over-inflated tires (anything over 28 psi) will make a TJ ride like garbage.
