the steering was one of my biggest gripes on the JKU, but i wouldn't expect that much of a significant improvement.

The issue is wind not steering, jlu steering is great for what it is. But what happens during windy conditions is an absolute nightmareMexicanYarisTK wrote: ↑Fri Apr 26, 2019 6:40 pmthe steering was one of my biggest gripes on the JKU, but i wouldn't expect that much of a significant improvement.

Hard not to smile on vacay jeep is a solid possibility. The Type of jeep remains tbd for now. I can’t decide on rubicon vs Sahara vs Moab.CorvetteWaxer wrote: ↑Mon Apr 29, 2019 11:49 am Great shots..
