I just used the Mopar 2” and 37” and all is well. The Gladiators really need a lift and larger tires to look right!

I have a 2020 gladiator with rough country 3” and 35” tires absolutely love it

Thanks for this video. I'm getting ready to lift my Sport S and Friends were saying I need a 6in, but it's a daily driver and I don't plan on going beyond 37 or 38 tires. I find even with the 2.5 I have now the JT is very capable. Belly skid plates would probably be a close second to getting ground clearance.

Subbed always useful info ive been looking for a video like this since i got my JT. Thanks

I just put the Mopar 2” on my JTR with 35’s and it’s perfect.

I put the Mopar 2.5 inch lift kit on my 2018 JLUR and it has a factory style ride and won’t void any warranties which is what I wanted. So it’s perfect. I put a rubicon 2 inch lift kit on my JK and kept blowing my transmission and they always blamed my lift kit as if it has anything to do with it so they screwed me out of my warranty so I put a 5.7L hemi in it and it fixed all the problems but then my gas mileage went from bad to terrible so I sold it.

What kit would you suggest if I want to keep the factory fox 2.5 shocks on? I have a 21 Gladiator Mojave.

thank you for your very good explanation.

Awesome information

Really well explained and answered most of my lift/tire size questions. I just wonder if this translates well into the 2021's?

it does

I have the Mopar 2" lift. It lifted my Gladiator Sport almost 3". It's a nice lift, but lacks a front adjustable track bar which imo is pretty necessary. I had to buy it separately. The ride quality is equal to or better than stock. The Fox shocks work well. 35" tires look fine with it, but 37s also work well. Being 5'4 it's plenty high for me.

I have never seen a good rough country lift even your video shows the spring is curved

Great video.

Rubicon diesel with mopar lift on 37s clears perfectly . But bottoms out even on speedbumps . Major flaw . .

I bought a 2021 Jeep gladiator not sure what size lift is on it, was lifted when I bought it it has 22” TIS wheels and 37” tires I’m guessing 4” lift?

Good explanation. I have 4.5 teraflex with 40inch tires. I dont want to go 6.5 inch because of body roll. What if I put 42's on current 4.5inch lift, will I get little bit of 6 inch lift affect??

So the Rubican is already 1.5” higher than other gladiators, right. So does a 2” lift get you an additional 1/2” because you take off the 1.5” stock suspension?

First Jeep and looking at putting 35s on and still daily driver. Can you drop link for 2-2.5 inch lift you recommend that won’t break bank? I have heard some negative reviews on RC lift.

Buy the Mopar kit!

What model would have best migration to 4.5 lift and 40 inch tires? Overland, sport, rubicon, Mojave? If need to regear and add/take away things, is paying up/down for any particular model more efficient? If one has 3.73 gear and another has 4.1 and needs to be 4.88-5.13, would both either 3.73/4.1 need to swap out or can it be easier to add to 4.1? Also…want to do it on a manual

Rubicon I have 37s. If not driving crazy like spinning wheels, 40s. Rubi is also 4:10 so it helps. Mine is a 22 gladiator with a 2.5 and 37s. Manual sucks for wheeling and about everything so ….

I have some 35” tires and want a 4” lift kit. Is that ok?

Great video as always! Does a 4 1/2 inch require new driveshaft for non rubicon models?

nitroxide91 I don’t think that kit includes a drive shaft rather a track bar? However just because a kit comes with or doesn’t come with something I don’t think that is a determining factor that it’s required/recommended?

Yes and maybe some re-gearing wouldn’t hurt

I did a 6” on a 4runner. I was able to clear rocks and stuff. Now I’m on a rubi with a 2.5 and 37s. It’s lower so I may go higher. If you do wheel, higher is better and 35/37s at least. And for deep snow. Can’t high center something you can walk under.

@chuckjones5379

Higher is not necessarily better. The higher you go, the more it throws off your center of gravity. Could make it more "tippy". Most folks who wheel regular strive to keep the vehicle body lower, but simply increase tire size. Thats where your clearance increase comes from. Inner fender elimination kits with 3" lift and 35-37 inch tire would be around the sweet spot.

Moral is.....jeep wranglers and gladiators have soooo many options.

thanks

The Mopar lift isn't that bad, but you don't get a lot for what you pay for it. If it had adjustable trackbars, it'd be perfect as a starter lift. If you can haggle on the price at a service department through price matching OEM vendors and get them to shave a couple hundreds bucks off, it's not a terrible deal.

I want the Mopar 2.5 inch lift with 35s I think that's a solid starting point. But now I seen someone in the comment section here is running 37s with the Mopar kit....... I always though you needed extensive upgrades to run 37s hmmmmmm

CJ Off-Road MY GUT REACTION: It’s not for me to decide. Matt, you do what best suits you and your situation. “Gut feeling,” aside, I think you’ve pretty much explained to us, several times, that you 1) want to go overlanding & 2) you don’t like vehicles that are difficult to get in/out of. Given that overlanding will have a lot of miles, do you really think 40’s/42’s are good for that? No, me neither. Keep your lift small, 2.5”-3”, but VERY FLEXY, like long arm flexy, and use 37’s, max. Restrict uptravel so a set of 37’s doesn’t rip up things, but build it so a tire will drop out like there’s something broken. Many a tire shop across this nation will carry/handle a 37” tire. Plus, you should be able to stuff that 37 underneath, where the spare should be. If you truly want to overland, than show us what a rig built to maximize space can be; and there’s a heck of a lot of space under that bed.

Maybe try the Mopar 2 inch lift. It's nice kit for daily driving and mild offroading. You can also beef up the Mopar kit with high end control arms/ track bars to maximize articulation (the OE style bushings can't take a lot of misalignment).
