New JL owner

[Sean L]

Another thing, do the rubi shocks on the willys make that big of a difference, or did I just get unlucky with the sahara I drove? In my picture, the silver jeep is a JLU sahara, and it was kind of terrifying on the highway. Very difficult to control, very floaty. That was a rental car I picked up for work (I travel for work), and it was the reason I went and looked at JLs. As I said earlier I didn't really care for the JKs and the way they rode, once I drove that rental JL I had to give Jeep another shot. My willys is far more sure footed at highway speeds than that sahara.

You get a longer suspension travel with the Red shocks. I didn't notice any difference in how my Jeep handled after I installed the Rubicon suspension. What did make the difference was when I did the latest steering TSB and they installed the new steering box.

Both models are 2021s, its not really an issue on tracking straight, but more a floaty problem. A gust of wind bouncing you around, 70 mph lane changes you bounce. I dont feel it in my willys. I'm wondering if it's the stiffer shocks. I drove the sahara from Cincinnati to eastern Maryland and back twice, so I haf time to get used to it, it wasn't operator error. It was so bad actually that I got pulled over on my second trip because the cop thought I was drunk.

Mine doesn’t do that. The floaty sensation sounds like a blown shock.

PS - again, the drunk incident sounds more like the good old steering issue.

That would certainly be interesting, on a 2021.

Yeaaaah Sean!!! Still wannabe MY friend???

That floatiness may be partially due to tire pressure as well. My 20 came WAY over recommended pressure. Lowering tire pressure really improved the driving experience.
