From what I’ve read more off-road groups are using gmrs. I could be wrong.

I’ve been looking at them myself. I like the lower weight but I’m wondering if the strengths is sufficient

As has been stated, GMRS is more popular and all it takes is a radio and a $30 license with no testing. if you get into it heavy you can always add a ham to your arsenal. Handhelds are priced fairly decent for starting out.

Sounds good. We’ll see what works out in March ?

I wouldn't be able to make the whole week but I would be interested in joining up for a couple days on a weekend depending the timing.

I do think I need to try harder. ?

Sarcasm noted and greatly appreciated. ?? in seriousness, I’m now plan to take a look at the underside of the suspension to get a better idea of the hardware location so I can use tire placement on obstacles to keep from messing them up on the bigger rocks. I’ve already done that some but as I...

Thanks for taking the time to explain that. Seeing the attachment point on the CA and how the lift affects it's angle helps a lot. It looks the me like whatever lift you use, using the same amount of correction would reposition the CA back to the original position but from what I've read from...

So now the question of geometry correction arises. if I wanted to research the subject would it be steering geometry or suspension geometry?

I don’t know, sounds like a bad aux bat to me.

you are correct that caster has more effect on steering. When I said smoothness I was oversimplifying or misstating the effect. I did a little looking on the web last night for info on caster angle to get an understanding of how it works https://suspensionsecrets.co.uk/caster/

to each his own, for sure. I do scrape and bang here and there but I don’t want to tear things up to the point of having to replace them because I don’t have the money for that.

Being new to Jeep and offroading with my own vehicle I have a lot to learn and I’m trying to soak up as much as I can. I get a lot of good insight from this forum but also web search for pertinent information. From what I’ve read so far I get the idea that caster angle effects the smoothness of...

Copy that. thanks for the invite. ?? WRYW418 in Menifee out.

Something on my upgrade list is the AEV 2” lift for Mojaves and the bracket. After reading through this thread I will keep them on my list but with the opinion that whatever lift I have there will always be something that will bang them up if I go over that obstacle. one example I experienced...

they call this Hurcules’ finger. West of Johnston Valley off Powerline road.

Saw that on the other thread. Had to look it up to see where it is. A lot of good trails out there. ?

Where you at in SoCal? We’re in Lucerne valley until Sunday.

the hood ones? I like those

That was one of my first things along with rubber floor mats and a cover while sitting in the driveway during the week. I went cheap on the tonneau for now just to get something over the bed. Lots of good stuff out there.
