I still have my TJ. Long arms and ORO steering helped...but the JL blows it out of the water on the highway. I don't generally drive this fast...but the day after I got my lift I hit triple digits on the highway. It was smoother and more confident than the TJ at 65. I could have held that pace in the JL as long as the single digit MPG held out.You like the idea of the tj, but the reality was not anywhere near that good. Poor handling, down right terrifying and unsafe at freeway speeds especially when lifted on the factory short arms. We all could have bought TJ's for pennies on the dollar for what we paid for our JL's, and yet here we are on the JL forum...
I bought the JL instead of a truck and trailer to bring the TJ out of retirement as a wheeler again. I knew I was not going to take the TJ on trips behind it's steering wheel.
