Default Help

I was out driving my WK today after i locked the diffs, i was trying to do a climb up my front step (Which is like the setps in your house but only one.) and i could only get my front tires up then it just flips. then i try to go backwards where the weight is on the front and it still does it. Once i extend my WB to 12.5 will it still do that. And also why is there so much twist when you take off, once i get the 55t and the 93t/15t will it stop?

when you stretch your wb to 12.5 your ground clearance will decrease. this will make it so you will bottom out the frame when you try and climb. my wk is 13.5" and i can go up curbs but at an angle not straight on.

sounds like you need to flip the body round and get the weight over the front. also the torque twist can be reduced by mooving your front left shock to the outside of the mount and do the same with your right rear.....or some people put thicker oil in the right rear shock.....

i found that doing that hellped more than just changing the gearing.....
