Ok this is a really noobish questing, I have only been offroad twice sence i have bought my jeep back in march.
My question is when starting out on trails and such what all steps do you take?
What all should you disconect, what tire psi should you drop your tires?
Do you lower your tire psi everytime you go off road on a trail wether there are rocks or obsticals to go over or just bumpy parts?
So far the one trail that i have done is a really laid back and easy one, to big rocks or anything just a few switch backs and turns that make you lean a little and some rocky areas.
Rocky areas have rocks not much bigger then a soccer ball but on the first attempt going up it made my jeep shake and bounce to the point while having the kids with us they didnt like it and we had to turn around and go back down.
Second time up, was just me and the fiancee' and we made it all the way up but we bounced around on the rocky parts really bad, we didnt do anything before going up and left tires at normal psi. is that all normal and should be expected? or would things have been a bit smoothing with less psi in tires?:idontknow:
