How's the ride? Good compromise between on/offroad? Any vibes? Looking to lift but keep a nice ride on road, as my trips are more tame than most. Mostly fire roads with a few moderate trails. ThanksSuspension:

I can't speak too much for offroad as I don't wheel hard either, but check out @KraziAzn 's video: The MUD 100 series Videos threadHow's the ride? Good compromise between on/offroad? Any vibes?

He has a slightly different setup (OME TBs and Ironman coils I think) but he uses Tough Dog shocks.
On road the ride is firm but smooth - no vibes (vibrations?). The LC handles amazingly well in corners - almost zero body roll. I drove through some winding canyon roads and it almost felt like driving a sports sedan.
Fire roads and moderate trails should be a piece of cake with this setup.
You nailed it. OME TBs (from what I heard, all TBs are the same, just rebranded) Ironman springs with TD 41mm front / 45mm adjustable rear. Super comfortable on road, a lot more stable during high-speed/corning, a lot less body roll over OEM.
As far as off-road, it soaks up the bumps really well. And when you're going over obstacles it doesn't feel "floaty" or "roll" back and forth like the OEMs.
If you're doing mostly fire roads, you'll love the TDs. but don't forget to lower your PSI too. I usually lower it to 18PSI and I bomb down the trail, 20-35mph. Especially around Joshua Tree, you can go around 40+
