How To Fix Your Jeep's Off Road Suspension!!

It's actually pretty common for most off road vehicles to ride like a dump truck. But what most people don't realize is that it doesn't have to be that way! Although most Jeep and 4x4 suspension is generically valved from the manufacturer, with little to no consideration for the actual weight and setup of your off road vehicle...that's not always the case. For instance, Bilstein's 8100 series bypass shocks can be bought specifically valved for a Wrangler or a Gladiator.
BUT, even if your off road suspension isn't setup like this from the start, that doesn't mean you have to suffer with a crappy ride both on and off road. Shock tuning exists, and we went to Shock Jesus (of Liberty Mountain Fab) to show you how it can change your/our lives.

    I have driven through central NV many times going from Idaho to the hammers, it truly is no man’s land. You break down or run out of gas your probably without cell service and far away from help. Being 100% reliant is necessary out there. Safe travels!

    I've been on and dealt with a lot of whoops, or "whoop-de-whoops" as we've always called multiple whoops together, and I have to say I'm impressed with how well it handles them. That speaks volumes about the suspension.

    I wish my jeep felt half as good as what this looked like. I have the RK 3.5" triple rated springs and bilstien 5100s. It works great on the rocks, but it is very hard to drive on any bumpy/small rocked trail. I'm not sure what I need to do to make it handle better. I don't think I wanna go softer because it works great and flexes out good on the rock crawling side of things already. The faces!!! Lmao, that whole section of this was just hilarious. "My face is just stupid" bro, you did way better than I would have for sure. I couldn't imagine being the one filmed while driving that thing out there!! Lmao. Definitely would love to come out and see how that actually feels. Hopefully, someday, I'll get out that way and try to swing in if y'all we're available, of course. Where is Kevin's sponsorship for Monster? Lmao, almost every video he has the white monster now.
