Such an awesome looking TJ... This series/model is the pinnacle of an off roading Jeep. Simplicity and ability. Love your work!!!!

Thanks! The TJ will always be the best for wheeling.

Man i got married in Ozark Alabama many years ago while stationed at Ft. Rucker. Always told people that I was stationed in L A. lower alabama. Love your tj , my 06 is almost identical including color.... Stay safe out there my friend 🙏

Amazing to see how far this Jeep has come since the beginning. Such a slick build. Looking forward to all the future adventures. Keep up the great work!

Saving this video so I can emulate. Love the set up. Pretty much exactly how I want to do mine.

That rear bumpers is REAL nice. Definitely gonna be on my list when I have extra change

Awesome build man. Gonna steal a few ideas for my ‘00

Such a clean Jeep, nice job. Reminds me of my 04 rubicon, very same build. You should definitely do a B&M short throw shifter. Game changer!!!

On the list of things to do! They’re out of stock everywhere right now for the NV3550

I built my 99 for my son. 37s with 5:13s and its fine. we went to 39s and we need way more gear. 4.5" metalcloak lift. 30 up front, 44 rear. Used metal cloak shocks, their basic red ones. Jeep drives flawlessly.

Yeah the 37-38 range is all I’d want to run on any gear ratio in a TJ without upgrading to a 4:1 or greater case

Lovely looking Jeep, nice work. Will be interesting to see if the Dana 30 upfront can hold up to 37s.

noticed you dont have a skid plate on our gas tank. I am debating on one for mine, but you are running a more robust setup than me. So thought I would ask. love the new setup! the build on this has been so awesome!

Yes a gas tank skid just hasn’t made the top of my list of upgrades yet. If I tan one, I would want it to be as slim as possible to retain maximum clearance. Thanks for watching the build process!

Nice rig man!

Thank you!

There’s a spray paint called steel-it that can be applied directly to raw metal. I think it comes in a satin finish and is supposed to be super durable. That might be a good option for the bumper in the future. A huge plus is that you can touch up any bumps and bruises you get

Thanks! I'll have to check that out.

You talked about the roll bar but not the cover, where did you get the padding cover for the rear and around the upper sound pods? I didn't install the rear bar on my kit yet becausei didn't want to cut the cover and my overhead wrap is just hanging because I didn't want to cut it until I had more time to think it thru. Great video

just came across the channel, and love it. Love the jeep as well. I may have missed it but what exhaust system are you running?

There’s a video several years back where I install it, but I’m running the Magnaflow Offroad pro cat-back system.

Hey man, I appreciate your support (comment) recently on my little channel "jeepNdirt" where I highlighted my dad's basic "everyday TJ" build on 33's for those on a budget. That said, I'm an old school guy from the YJ world who added a built JLUR to my world as seen on a couple of my videos and really learned alot about the geometry of coil springs set up's. That said, in completing my dads jeep (who now wants me to make it look like yours, lol!) I battled the front end "woe's" of the the short wheel base TJ's and got nice balance between castor and drive line angle. Now that's on 33's and an actual lift height of 4.2 inches but I'm curious about the following on your jeep: 1. What castor are you running? 2.Do you not get what I call "suspension steer" when traveling on the road, (i.e. low and high spots that make the jeep feel like it sort of moves side to side back to front in a subtle way) from the severe angles of both your control arms and Track bar up front? 3. What's your actual wheel travel in inches? 4. Does the front roll bar interfere with being able to roll up / down the windows? 5. Do you really realize how GREAT that color is on your jeep. Lol. Absolutely my favorite color in the TJ and actually the LJ which I'd love build if I can ever find a good deal on one. I'm a simply color scheme kinda guy. My JLUR (as seen on my channel) is simply Granite Crystal metallic with black fenders and a few red highlights. I absolutely love your scheme as well. The Khackie and black with only a couple silver highlights is really really nice. I'll also point out that although I'm running a different manufacturer (LoD) on my Rocker guards and rear bumper tire carrier, I do agree with you 100% that the integrated tire carrier is the way to go. Mine is absolutely 1000% noise free and so easy to open. My JLUR is a daily driver so it get's frequent use. I'll also point out that although a little on the pricey side, the Bartac stuff is top notch. My JLUR has had them on the seats since 2020 and there's no fading, sagging, stretching, or anything. I don't have all my molly loops used, but I do have many of them occupied with bags, pouches, radio's, E50 fire extinguisher stick, etc. and all are in good shape. Hope to see you at Stoney lonesome some time. Planning on taking both my JL and YJ out there with a friend who's looking to break in his teenage son in his "new to him built YJ". Good stuff man, good stuff.

Thanks for the comment man and keep making videos! I’m unsure of my full suspension travel measurement. However I am running +/- 6 degrees of caster up front, the cage does not at all interfere with the windows being rolled up/down, and yes with a short arm of this height and a dual track bar set up you’ll have a slight amount of bump steer on major dips in the road. It isn’t bad enough where it’s worth worrying about on mine though. Get a high quality lift kit and adjustable track bars, and you can get it pretty dialed in.

@@_everydayoffroad_ Yeah. That's what I Did on his. I was able to get 6.9 on his castor and it really rides like a sports car in the road. I'm really pleased with how it came out but I told him if he wants it to be like yours then we gotta do it right the first time which means I'll have to change the name of the next video to the "Not Budget" build TJ. Lol.

Haha it adds up quick! Buying the Jeep itself is the “cheap” part

I have the same Jeep, only the Rubicon edition. Did you use SEM paint for the half door interior panels? If so what color?

In the rear have you had to cut the tub any for the 35s and then the 37s? Do you know how much shock travel you have up/down in the front and rear? I have the 3.5” superflex short arm kit on my LJ Rubicon and thinking if i can fit 37s with a highline i may do that or a 1”ish body lift and all that goes with that.

@_everydayoffroad_

Жыл бұрын

35’s didn’t rub at all. The 37’s rub slightly in the rear but with the highlines no rubbing up front. With a 3.5” and 1” body lift you’d be fine on either size with highline fronts. I’m unsure of my full travel length, never have measured it.

I can't seem to find that rear bumper for TJ.

Hey, what are the tiles you have on the driver side fender of the jeep, very cool looking to get some for mine

Those are Jeep trail badges. There are random trails across the country that if you run in a Jeep, you can download and app that gives you the badges. Pretty neat program.

How much for the windshield banner

@_everydayoffroad_ thanks for the response. Wow those rears look good. I really like your wheel and tire combo. Do you drive on the street a lot? How did they balance with the beads? Is that offset and spacer perfect or could you go like a -12 offset and be fine you think since you added spacers.

@_everydayoffroad_

@@user-rh1sn2vq8z I had bad luck with the balance beads. Actually ended up vacuuming them out and taking my tires up to the local offroad shop to have them balanced traditionally. Now they ride smooth as glass, but I don't drive very much on the street. You could definitely run less offset with having the adapters, but the -38mm offset is pretty standard for most beadlocks.

You missed the horizontal brace bar at the rear center section of the rollbars.
