just for laughs i looked at your photo history and 22% of the last 54 pics you've uploaded have been this one..
i think you can officially claim that you are a therapist now
I think you just got your next avatar tagline.
Glad to see that you have gained better understanding from your posts from 2020.

I’m pretty sure we are in TJ general discussion, are we not?
Plenty of places to go on the internet to discuss all kinds of suspensions. Since this is a specific TJ forum, I would say that is what we are here to discuss.
To compare a bomber car to a TJ is just dumb, I don’t have a better word for it.
Just because something works on one vehicle doesn’t mean it will work on another. This seems pretty obvious…
Something about apples and oranges?
I don't know the answer to this but would ask is it dismissed completely or is it a trade off for other reasons?
If the goal is flat links then raising the belly isn't going to be easy.
Even the Bronco in that picture is running portals for a reason which I assume is to get things up and out of the rocks.
The ride gets tuned with shocks.
I quote Chris, "My TJ with the Savvy mid-arm handled night and day better than a stock TJ on-road. That’s because of the shocks and the tuning...".
This is roughly his "I'm not in a hurry" prerun speed on a trail. There is lots of video of Randy at speed and the only thing that ever keeps him off of the podium are parts not holding up. The thing that is a bit confusing to those that don't know is at the beginning of the video he is going around the obstacle on a line that most can't even begin to take. So while he looks like it struggles, most would just diff out and be on the cable right there.
Then find an offroad suspension forum and start pestering them. Try Race Dezert or similar. The rest of your answer is platform constraints.
Where it goes is the hypocrisy of even beginning to entertain any discussion with someone who has already been banned. Every single forum I have ever been on that constitutes a zero tolerance ban instantly as soon as the reality of the who is verified.
I'd suggest trying to keep it TJ related when it's in the TJ General Discussion forum. I think a suspension discussion thread in the Off-Topic section might be a good idea for the discussion of off-road suspension outside the realm of a TJ.
Just a suggestion.
They'll lead the master class in suspension design with a strong focus on spring rates.
That is a lesser crime than confusing star wars and star trek
I was gearing up to do that on purpose!
It could but it doesn't because as soon as it starts with "you need to build TJ suspension like a buggy" then it is fucked, not a little fucked, not partially fucked, wholly fucked. You can't translate something that you can build around a suspension design to something you have to design suspension around and that is where everyone loses it.
Didn't I read somewhere that a spring only function was to hold the vehicle up at predetermined height?
