Lift Complete!

[Chinodiver]

That looks amazing and very well put together, Congratulations! TJ's are such a beautiful thing, I mean does it really get any better?
(and no adding more TJ's doesn't count (and that just because you can only drive one at a time))

It's not the heavy-duty springs that give a "firm" ride, it's the Nitro shocks you chose. Possibly made even firmer by the tires very likely having been overinflated. Are those 35's? What pressure is in them?

Jerry the tires are 33x12.5 I haven't checked the PSI yet what should they be at?

26-28 psi is a good starting point IMO.

X2 to what Bob said. 26 psi when lightly loaded, 28 psi when your TJ is fully loaded.

It's the OME 2 inch lift. With HD springs closer to 2.5

I've lowered the PSI down to 28 from 33. I'll see how that goes on the drive to work tomorrow. Thanks guys.

You keep your Jeep fully loaded?

I am guessing you think I should start at 26?

I will drop it down another 2 PSI you have never steered me wrong.

Done. Tires are down from 33 to 26.

Let us know if the ride is noticeably better at the lower pressure. 26 should be good.

 

[bobthetj03]

I run 26 psi most days for my commute.

Very clean, capable Jeep. I bet it turns heads!

@Jerry Bransford the ride in to work today was good, definitely a smoother ride while cruising, that washboard feeling is gone. It handles bumps very nicely.

Tomorrow is the 200 Mile drive from Long Island to Rausch Creek Off Road Park in PA. I will post photos of the trip at some point.

Thanks!
This is my next projected upgrade, looking on what is on the market and budget.

Do yourself a favor and get double adjustables, at least for the rear uppers. You will thank yourself later.
