  • In this video we take my Jeep Cherokee XJ on a trip to explore some rural backroads. I was really impressed with how my Jeep Cherokee XJ handled everything from the gravel roads to the interstate highways.

    When you installed your 3” lift did you have to add an adjustable track bar and do a transfer case drop or anything? I’m kinda confused about the contradiction all over the internet!

    • @KCars
      @KCars  Рік тому +1

      Yes we added an adjustable track bar that came with the lift kit, otherwise the body of the Jeep was off center and didn’t look right. Instead of dropping the transfer case, we did a slip yoke eliminator to get rid of the driveline vibrations. You can do a transfer case drop but I think that is just more of a band aid solution. I have detailed videos about these topics on my channel if you’d like to check them out! Thanks for watching!

    have some questions here, did you change the steering stabilizer on the xj, if yes why and what did you notice. also, why do a lot of xj owners have multiple ones like 2 or 3 lol, thanks for the vid

    • @KCars
      @KCars  Рік тому +1

      Yes we changed the steering stabilizer, it was recommended just because I still had the stock one and would be better to upgrade, I didn’t really notice a change but we installed it along with the lift and wheels and tires so I wouldn’t expect to notice a change when there were other variables involved. And I can’t speak for others but I personally would like to get another XJ because I enjoy restoring and preserving them, and I’d also like to have one to build up for off-roading and not just to preserve and keep nice and clean. Thanks for watching!
