I play piano in a whorehouse
Iā€™m ready for coffee and bacon. Iā€™m up between 4 and 5 am most everyday (unless Iā€™m working nights). Wifey loves to sleep in, hates mornings. I rarely get bacon. She doesnā€™t respond well to ā€œwoman, bacon!! At 5 am.

Blue one also a Sahara? Any difference in steering or ride quality?
Both Saharas. The rides are pretty identical. Blue has A/T tires , green H/T . There is a dead spot in both but that seems to be normal. My wife drove my daughters Crosstrek ,the other day, on the interstate and complained about the quick steering. (lol ) Shed move the wheel a fraction and the car would respond. She hated that !!

Thatā€™s how my Jeep is, very responsive steering, I know that sounds weird, I think I won the steering lottery... lol.

Thats amazing! And all this time , I assumed our steering was normal ! . Did yours come that way or has it tightened up from all the mods you have done ?

The dead spot your referring to, imho, is related to the steering box. The steering components that you upgrade, track bar, tie rod , drag link, steering stabilizer...etc. are for the way the steering feels and responds, like death wobble, wandering and such, again, this is just my opinion....:) there are upgraded steering boxes out, you might look into it, but your ā€˜20 might have it already.
