It’s a stock Jeep with F/R lockers, Disconnect sway bar, 31” tires.  Just starting to gather stuff to outfit it.  Planning on getting Winch, straps, tool, etc. etc. etc. etc.   

I’m thinking I’ll want to start out on simple trails and watch others. Maybe get a little adventurous. Looking to get back out into the forest.  Did a lot of backpacking in the Sierras in years past. Now I’ll just be more comfortable. 

Hoping to tag along on some trail rides and start learning.

As a result of the pandemic, we are meeting virtually. That's unfortunate because we normally spend a lot of time out in the parking lot after our meetings talking about and looking at vehicle modifications. We have a variety of Jeeps with different levels of modification, which can help people like you decide if and how they might want to modify their vehicle. Some are daily drivers and some aren't. It really helps being able to see modifications in person and to talk to the owner about their experience with their mods. Hopefully we will be able to meet in person again in the not to distant future.

Thanks. I’ll be abusing the JK, like normal! I finally got it back & after my 2nd COVID dose on the 30th, I’m going to Prairie City & try it out.

Yes, it should, but I’ve said this before. The suspension travelled too much because the bump stops were too far apart & resulted in the track bar to act as a straight force against the bracket, which  forced it to fail. Now that the angle is reduced, so should the forces against the bracket. All this sounds logical, but the proof in the putting will come to light soon at the nuclear test site.
