Old Man Emu, Medium or HD coils and shocks. Nothing else even comes close. Great ride, better ride and built for the KJ

stay away from anything that says "budget" "economy" or "over the top"

Personally, I recommend staying away from rocky-road.com as well but I have my own reasons for that (they still owe me money!)

You can also go with OME medium or Heavy Duty coils and Rancho struts and shocks

That is a very big subject right there. What do you do with your KJ? Start from there and you'll be able to get tires to suit the job. Naturally, we will all be more than happy to give you lots of advice about what the best tires are... :lol:

If you stay on the street most of the time with some occasional offroading then I would go a good A/T..

Offroad alot with lots of mud then get a M/T.

Just coming back on the tyres, better get two sets, one for onroad driving and one for offroad.

I had the original road tyres on when it came from the factory and drove great onroad, and like you I also wanted to do just a little bit of offroading but nothing too hard core so I thougt like it was said before that I should get a set of ATs, I did and now onroad in the wet that booty is all over the place.

P.S: I will be changing my tyres for full road tyres this coming Tuesday..., and I have a very nice set of Mud tyres in the garage for my offroading trips...

If your stock Goodyears were better than BFG AT's in the wet, I want what you're smoking...must be some good stuff;)
