Jeep Cherokee - Rough Country Lift Kit Installation
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2019
- This video covers all the steps needed to install the Rough Country Lift Kit/Levelling Kit, which provides a 2 inch lift for your Jeep Cherokee. It covers model years 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019, which is the KL models. It has a 2 inch lift in the front, and close to 1 inch lift (roughly) in the year, to give a balanced ride height, instead of the slightly forward lean on the stock suspension, so it is more of a levelling kit, but does provide total lift. This shows all tools and steps needed.
***Important note****
at 31:28, I note that the bolt on the left has no washer, and the one of the right does. This is incorrect, you actually put the washer on the left bolt in the video, and no washer on the right bolt. If you can get the opportunity, it may be a good idea to purchase a pair of grade 8, 9/16" Flat Washers and use the washers on both bolts. Thank you @peanutbuttercrunch for catching this for me.

one of the best "how to" videos I've ever seen!
Best video on UA-cam for the Rough Country Lift kit and the Jeep Cherokee, bar none. I have to say however, that you nailed it when you mentioned that the directions have it wrong on which one goes on the passenger side and which goes on the drivers side.
Good job. Plenty of detail without repeating yourself. Its the worst when people keep saying "like i said" and say the same thing 3 or 4 times. Our Patriot FD2 just got totaled. Hit and run. Theyre hauling it off tomorrow. Trying to decide between a 14-18 Cherokee Trailhawk or a 19 Compass Trailhawk. Already researching mods.
Probably the best DIY automotive video on the web! Thanks for not assuming we know to perform a step here and there and skipping it like so many other DIY videos do. Nothing more frustrating than that. Again, awesome! Thanks!!
Video saved. Phenomenal video. No bs filler or lengthy explanations of crap we don’t need to know. Detail for the sake of information and no wasted time.
How can you NOT like this video. you did such an OUTSTANDING job! step by step, all the way through. This was totally AWESOME!. ( And you were so calm through the whole process 😂)
I put this on my Cherokee Trailhawk... Total game changer... The bumper used to come pretty close to scraping some things in ruts.... I feel like it's never going to scrape anything now
Great video! I appreciate the extra time you took to show the details of the installation. It's great to know what to expect, prior to getting into my own. 👍
Great video, thank you! Love your attitude and detailed steps. I ordered the MFC 2" kit for my 2019 TH, but it always helps to watch various vids to get good general tips!
Just did my lift last night. Your video helped a lot! Pretty smooth install
I very much enjoyed this video. I liked how you showed what you were going to do before you did it, then actually did it. It was also great that you know your stuff. It was perfect.
Thanks for this video! The Rough Country instructions were hard to follow and had a lot of inaccurate information. Your instructions were spot on and made the install quite easy! Well done!!
Doing this this weekend. Your video assured me it should go smoothly. Thanks!
Thanks for the great video mate ,that has to be one of the more clear ,and precise how to videos I've ever watched ,you explained each step ,and your camera angles were spot on ,you put a lot of the big channels to shame .My wife tricked me into trading my TJ wrangler for a Cherokee limited ,and after finding your video I'm going to install the lift kit on on mine .Cheers from down under.
Just put my lift kit on yesterday and your video was a godsend thanks so much !
Awesome video! I Just install the rough county leveling kit today and your video was very helpful, thank you
Great video, especially all the little tips that the instructions don't include. You set my mind at ease on how to tackle this project for my KL. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Hey man great step by step process. Thank you I'm a very visual learner and appreciate you taking time to make this! God Bless!
You have no idea how much this video helped me. Just installed mine and without your video, I would taken all day.
Your efforts here are very much appreciated. About to take on this task. You've likely saved me hours of frustration. THANK YOU.
