Alexandria here. I also have a place in North Central Arkansas (Ozark NF) that I try to go to as often as I can.

You must've been near Fort Polk. Only part of Kisatchie I've seen the LWC signs. Did you go see the Wolf cave?

I originally used 2000lb torsion half axles but the leverage and weight of 33" tires proved to great during extrema off camber situations and bent the heck out of the spindles on the first trip. I had a local machine shop build me a piloted adapter to weld onto the original axle drop bracket and...

Less than $2,000 in materials including axles and articulating hitch. Plates were no issue at all here in Louisiana. Electrical system was about another $1,000. All in all with RTT, Alpicool fridge, 2KW inverter generator, metal, wood, electrical sys...Everything together was under $5,000.

After I added two jacks to the rear corners it became very stable.

That's what I'm looking for, thanks. I'll give Metalcloak and Currie a call. They both make progressive rate springs. Noted on the shock mounting points. Also good info.

Well I don't feel quite as bad now, I'm at about the same rear squat as you. Its not bad until you get into situations like the second picture.

Also I trailer the TJ to and from the trail.

I'm aware of the difference in a Jeep D44 and a truck D44. I'm also aware in the difference between a Jeep D44 and a Jeep D35. Which is why I mentioned the D44. Where are these fuel stops in the Ozarks at? Oark is the only one I know of. There's a few single pump stations I found just outside...

So, for our last exploration adventure in the Ozarks I had quite a bit of weight in the ole TJ with plywood shelving, 32qt refrigerator, a 45qt Yeti, 10 gal fuel, basic tools, roll-cage, hard top, roof rack and RTT. I did not weigh it all. My rear was squatting quit a bit even with the Rubicon...
