Well I'm glad you fixed the uptravel issue then. Only focusing on droop is not the way to go, you need a mix of both. Running an LCG rig limits your options on paths to take.

I havent run into that issue EVER here in texas. i didnt really call my toyota LCG, it was capable of about 6-8 inches uptravel but i had it bumpstopped with adjustable bumps to 4 inches. I played around with it until I found the best compromise between stability and articulation, and believe me, it was UNBELIEVABLY stable. It stuck like glue to the ground, even to the point where people would start running away sure that I was about to roll and tumble all the way down a hill/cliff/etc. But hey, it sounds like you're an expert on wheeling, so I guess you're right.

But back on topic, those are some nice XJ's! I've always liked the cherokees. Here's my old one.

With the flat fenders now, yes. With the stock fenders, no. I'm not big on upward flex anyway. Droop is where its at. My old 91 yota only had about 4 inches of uptravel and about 14 inches of droop and could outwheel all the tards with insanely high RTI scores that spent more time on their lids then anything else on the trail. "Hardcore."

tribaltalon: can that thing even flex out? Doesn't look like those 37's offer too much uptravel at all.

I started work on a new '03 TJ Project a few months ago. I'll work on getting some pictures once I get the interior finished up and put back together.
