The Jeep in question is a ’02 Sport with the 4.0, 3.73’s and a D44. So far the only changes made have been the 31-inch tires and the engine skid. I have been to Paragon four times last year and even though there was a lot of banging going on, the Jeep did fine. Once I managed to high center it but only needed the slightest of tugs to get going again. Another time I was stopped by a rock about the size of a football in front of the right front tire. That time only the right rear and left front had any appreciable weight on them.
So, in the quest for more off road capability, which will make the biggest improvement; a lock rite for the front, a lock rite for the back, a budget boost or something else entirely. I am leaning towards one of the lock rites (or something better?) as I think it would have gotten me out of both situations. However, if I had a BB, I could disconnect and the additional flex may have provided enough tire contact to move it out as well.
This is my daily driver and there is no money for 37’s or a LA conversion, I have about $300 to spend and I will be installing whatever I get myself. Any advice is appreciated.
