I ran the Dusy last summer and while amazing, it was hard on the underside of most of our rigs. I thought I had gotten away with only the usual skid plate damage.
It wasn’t until I met up with Ruvicon a few weeks later that I noticed my front passenger shock was completely broken.
Not the point of this thread, but maybe this is why shocks shouldn’t limit down travel?
Anyway, it got me thinking. I know we drive jeeps, but if it rides so poorly that I can’t tell when a front shock is disconnected maybe it’s time for a change.
So better shocks were on the menu, a little bit of research showed that better shocks will cost a decent amount, and then I had to see what the jump to coilovers would be...And Long arms...And better sway bars...And bumps.
Where/how do you draw the line on these things?
