I’m already impressed with the stock capability without making any tweaks at all, but I know there’s more to be found. All swaybars are still connected here, and all components aside from the tires are completely OEM.
Considering that the terrain pictured is what I’m up against most of the time (and I’m hoping to visit Uhwarrie, NC soon), I want to get what I can out of the stock configuration until I can afford some extensive quality suspension upgrades.
Which bars should I leave/disconnect, should I invest in beefier end links, and what tweaks can I make for more capability, etc.

Help me ball on a budget for a while, folks.

Finally fitted some quality AT’s, deleted the old running boards, and I did some trimming to the bumper.
Anyone have some custom-fab runners to show off? Looking for inspiration.
