Hey guys today I talk about Why you Should Not buy a Budget Boost Lift Kit for your Jeep. You should honestly just go for the spring lift especially if your springs are old!

My budget boost gets the job done offroad. I'll ride it till I blow the shocks lol
I agree, I took your advice and got Rusty's spring shocks track bar sway bar links and coil isolators. I got almost 3 inches of lift out of it from where I was sitting. Looks sick too. Thanks man.

Yea worth it 💪
It’s funny cus the first weekend I had my WJ I cut and folded all the fenders and wheel wells. The next weekend I did BB, shocks, and 33” tires. It’s held up fine after a year of off reading but now I’m trying to decide between a mild build with long arms and 37s or going all out with 1 tons 40s and a transfer case swap.
I have one on my 99 and i have mobbed the hell out of it in the backwoods of Oregon, Montana, and all through the desert..till I ended up here in Cali. Lots of water fording, crawling, hills, everything.. it's been great.
Good video, beautiful views. Mine's an 01 GC Limited 4.7 out of Stockton, went with a 2.5" spring lift. Definitely agree with replacing the coil isolators, I've seen others who didn't, and on top of missing out on maximum lift gains, they're damn noisy. I went ahead and covered all the bases: BDS springs, Bilstein shocks, Moog isolators, Zone sway bar links, CORE 4x4 HD track bar, all new control arms, and axle bushings.
Just put a 2 inch lift but I just changed out all the springs while I did the lift I don’t go off road so I think the 2 inch lift is fine for now 😂

Oh that’s good so you have née springs and budget boost?
Once you have a lift with real articulation you will never want to go back. I compare my last trip down Mojave Trail to my first with the BB. DAY AND NIGHT! I can't wait to go through Lippincott Pass in DVNP. It was such a struggle with the BB exhaust scraping the rocks, trying not to hit the rocker panels. I did put new springs in with the BB. Looking forward to Steel Pass, I didn't even attempt it with the BB.

Yea and don’t get me wrong if your springs are sagging go for the budget boost but I mean a 16+ year old car more than likely has sagging springs! Right I love the landscape!
Budget boost only on highway. But I did add track bars stabilization links new coils etc added wheel spacers as well. When I hit a dirt road I slow way down
i have the budget boost haha i literally found your channel looking for jeep WJ budget boost

Right now, I have my BB lift and new lower cool spring isolators for front and back. I have been considering new springs, after watching this, I think I will get new springs as well. Nervous though, I have rims with -6 offset. That caused Death wobble. Fixed it for my current height, but nervous if I go hire, it will come back. 🤷🏾♂️

Gotta 2 1/2 inch bb with new UC springs and new isolators. No DW but I’m starting to eyeball a legit spring lift.
I’ve had a BB for 5+ years. I put it on as soon as I got my WJ w/ Blistiens & 33’s. I’m in the northeast salt belt and my perches were trash back then. I need to do something about it.

Depends. Want a lift to cruise the malls and tackle speed bumps like most Jeepers today...yeah but if you are gonna wheel moderately to hard...go big and go right.
wish I watched this before getting the puck boost 😥
Went straight to the rough country 4". Thank you. Saved me some bank. (As usual)
Budget boost is good for guys who don’t off-road but want to look like they do.

@@NajarOffroad You can purchase a Rust's 2.5" lift kit, new shocks and springs all around for $379.00. I would also recommend at that point new track bar and new extended end links for sway bar. It gets expensive no matter what you do. Some people also run a lifted spring kit with spacers, seems kind of sketchy to me. I was going to look at doing a budget lift, but I think after watching this Ill save up to get that Rusty's kit. Thanks for your input.

Yea I would definitely recommend a minimum of a trackbar! I bought Rustys springs because I’ve heard good things about them so definitely go with them! It does add up real quick! I spent $1400 already and I still need quick disconnects and shocks!

@@NajarOffroad Yeah but you went long arm correct? Also, I've heard great things about the addco sway bar (heavy duty) for the rear. It is suppose to help with lifted WJs. www.ironrockoffroad.com/product/wj-rear-heavy-duty-sway-bar-addco.html
I have a 01 GC Limited with 67,000 original miles. Do not off road it, should I also need to stay away from budget boost kit?

Wow! The best way to go about it is measuring center of the wheel to edge of the fender which should give you about 18 inches if it’s lower than that the that means the spring is weak and should be replaced
If I just bought and installed springs and isolators, do you think the bb would be worth it? Was looking for a cheaper option for running my current 245/75/R17(I think about a 31in tire) with a higher stance, and taking some rubbing issue out.

Yea they are alright but if your springs are sagging you’re not going to get the full amount of lift
How much will a shop charge to install a 5 inch rough country lift on my 04 WJ ? Any rough estimates ?

Awesome, what are the sizes of your tires and rims?
Does the driveshaft still explode with a 2” lift on the 02 Overlands with 247? Getting ready to replace my shocks because they’re old

I have a 2.5”f / 2”r BB on my WJ. I just replaced the shocks to Monroe OESpectrum and new tie rod ends & track bar and stabilizer. Do you think I’d be able to tow? Eventually I will go on a short arm lift kit but I’m slowly upgrading
looking to do a 3" lift on my 2003 Grand Cherokee but will it be enough for my 32x11.50R 15LT's
I wanna do a small lift, like maybe 3” inch lift on my WJ 4.0 and run a 245 75 16. I’m not really hitting any trails, it’s a daily driver and some highway. I’m mainly wanting stance. What do you recommend for about $700 with good ride quality?

Did you have to change out the driveshaft with budget boost. If I lift the body 2” I can’t see a big angle difference.
What a about a boost for a rear wheel drive? 2004 WJ
