No problem! 33s are a great choice they keep it reliable while still being a capable build.

@@ROCKY_TV Front end: 4 link or 3 link and why? I imagine the 3 wears the uppers out faster.

A big yes on the long arms. My 04 is only up 3" with IRO long arms up front and IRO short arms in back, all adjustable and with the Flex Joints as well, Bilstein shocks. I previously had a budget boost 2" with stock arms, the long arms ride SO much better, it is like a different vehicle. No rocks in my parts, heavy woods and snow in winter. 33 pie cutters (255/80-17) work the best for my trails.

I have a 3" budget boost on my 2000 grand cherokee. Should I add long arms in the front and rear? what is the purpose of adding long arm? and what benifit would i get from adding them?. Everythng else is mostly stock. I am going to be adding a spicer double cardon driveshaft in the front and take out the stock cv style drive shaft. i went through 3 rebuild kits for the front drive shaft already from different carriers, brands and they all suck. Any answers would be appreciated. Thanks

Good info video. Thank ya

Hey, great video.; Thanks for the info. I have a 2000 WJ Limited and hope to build it up for Overlanding in the backcountry, not much rock crawling unless absolutely necessary. Would I really need long arms on a 4" lift if I am not rock crawling? Or would it be better to stick with an adjustable 3" lift for reliability?? I am trying to keep costs low and use as much stock parts as possible. Thx

Great video

The issues you addressed are for dedicated off-road vehicles it's all a bit much for a daily,, all the same crap also applies to the zj, I've only a 2inch so can run the 31s and don't have any problems off-roading with those that have done all you mentioned, will agree tho the longarm is absolutely worth it, ride, handling, articulation sooo much better, and if someone cheapskates out and stays with the shortarm get the adjustable so can push axles back where supposed to be and correct pinion angle, didn't hear you mention adjustable trackbars a must as well

Good video! I'm adding a Trailmaster 2" lift kit, do I really need to add or upgrade anything else with such a small lift?

What vehicle did that drive shaft come out of? Just so I know what to look for what vehicle to pull it from when I go to a junkyard

What’s the driveshaft coming out of that you pick up at the junkyard for 40 bucks? I have a 4” lift but looking to put an extra 2” on for a total of 6”. It does have long arms but it’s a rough country lift. I need more room for 33” tires

Much love to the DANA 35 cru

Hi, I like the hood vents on the flat black Jeep, Can U tell me about them? This video is at 1:54 thanks

Great video. What's your opinion on the two different factorie axles offered on the WJ? How many mods need to be made to the JK axles to make them fit the WJ?

I wouldn’t run big tires on any stock wj axles. The front almost bolts in the rear needs a truss for Jk axles

Do I have to get a longer front drive shaft just for a 2 inch lift but I am getting a off-road tires the same size tires I got on my Jeep now

what kind of light bulbs do you have in those headlights ?

Where can I got repair kits for unibody frame repairs. My wish bone pulled right out of them frame.

So with the two inch lift , you don't need the long arms? Just replace the Shocks and springs ?

Can I upgrade the steering before doing the IRO lift kit? I’m current sitting in a 3 inch lift with spacers. Drives like shit but waiting to drop the coin for the front IRO LA kit

How does a wider axle save on trimming ?

I have a 2001 jeep Grand Cherokee limited edition I'm looking to do a lift 3.5

What is the length of the junkyard drive shaft? And what model did you get it out of? I am am running a 4in lift wj 4.0

@@overlandadventuresoffroad2078 Depends on which 231 your comparing it to .

The stock axles are NOT junk. They’re not designed to run 36” tires that weigh 100lbs each more than the stock tires and wheels. What you should say is they might be junk if you’re going up 5 tire sizes from stock.

I’ve blown them up with 32s compared to other Jeeps they’re junk. Even JK Dana 30s are far superior and those stuck too.

Triangulated arms are worth the money.

I do agree with him yes. I will be doing this to my 2000 grand Cherokee. But on the other hand I disagree because I have a 97 grand Cherokee. 4inch rc lift. 35inch tires. Everything else stock. And I’ve beat the actual f@ck out of that thing since day one.
