Just curious if there is anyone from the Indianapolis area on these forums.

If so...a question for you: I drove my brand-spankin' new 2-DR X on a couple of fun-runs in the Indy area yesterday. On I-465 on the east side, going south, the new road surface is such that the suspension on the Jeep could never calm down, and I was bouncing for that entire stretch of freeway. The highway is in very good shape, and looks to have been resurfaced within the past year or two.

No issues on any of the other roads I've driven on, and not a big deal, but I am curious if anyone has seen anything simliar.

Someone from the same area as me, that's good to know. My '08 should be here in January, so I'll keep my eyes open for ya.

 

Where on 465, I was just through there yesterday between 37 and 69.

 

I drove my Unlimited home from Champion, at Michigan Road and 465.

465 was great with the longer wheelbase, but I have found a few roads around here with just the right (wrong) seam distance to make it buck. It's a light buck, but it's there.

 

I think you may have been rolling a little fast , no I drive 465 everyday, and from what I can tell even with resurfacing, certain lanes of travel are awful, the outer lanes of south bound, and the middle/outer lanes of north bound on the east side, hopefully they will fix in time, but I am just glad to have super70 done

 

I have a stretch of highway out here like that. Freshly paved and looks flawless, but driving over it, in certain lanes, results in a 1/2 mile bull ride. I was upset at first, thinking something was wrong, but I noticed a Semi trailer getting unsettled too. Most passenger cars absorb the bumps pretty well, but the stiffer truck suspension is susceptible.

 

I get some bucking on my 2dr on a local thruway. gets it rocking front to back for a few miles. kinda makes me sea sick.
