    Making D2 Brakes Better - What's the Solution?

    Brakes on the D2 have always been, what's the term our thread is using ? So so.... Strap 4 passengers in it, or some trail armour and they become even more "So so;" You will have to adjust your driving style to accommodate time for stopping on a dime, should that situation be necessary. I've...

    Custom springs for D2

    "OME were constant duty, did not sag, but they were too short and thinner bar diameter, requiring a spacer" --<Agreed on this point from experience. Those new springs are thick!!!!!! Wow.

    Best diff guards for D2

    100% correct. At the same time, if OP is ripping off wrap around guards, like my former QTs, I feel that's a vehicle / obstacle placement issue , I dunno
