I didn't say they were equal, just that it would not be a night and day difference. So far, in my limited experience in wheeling with a 3-linked XJ, there has been no notable difference in performance on the things we hit.
That being said, one of these days when it is convenient I'll probably upgrade to a 3-link and maybe have some more insight.

Last weekend I took the boy out for a drive. I wanted to keep him out for a while so we went out to Mini Moab to see if anyone I knew was out there...there wasn't. I was shooting a tire way up in the air and got out to make sure nothing crazy was happening, and snapped a photo. Mini moab may be boring, but it sure lends itself to poser shots.

On another note...a lot of you guys have tow rigs and whatnot. Is there a rule in truck school that says you MUST take up more than one parking space always? I see it out and about frequently, where someone takes between 2 and 4 spots for their truck...but this spot is made for a BUS, and this truck still had to park in two spots.

I don't REALLY care that much and it rarely actually inconveniences me...but there is some tick in my eyeball that it triggers.

I really hate when people park like that most of the time it's some jackass kid.

Now I do consider 2 spaces ok if you are hooked to a trailer last weekend I went to Moab some ****tard took up easily 7 spaces with his Ram megacab and trailer with his new ZL1 Camaro on it. I guess he was to privileged to park like the guys with their trucks hooked to their trailers with their Jeeps and buggies on them at the bottom of the lot. With their trucks in parking spots and trailers on the gravel . I was tempted to deflate all of the tires on his truck , trailer , and camaro to inconviece him as punishment for being a tool considering the hotel was fully booked
