That's the way it should come from the factory.Great job.Perfect stance.
Thank you !
Yes it should! Thanks!
I just bought the same kit for my '16 Grand Cherokee. Can't wait to install it!! Thanks for the video!!
Looks sick. Good lift, looks just right
I've lifted two WK2 Grand Cherokee's so far (see videos on my channel), I did a spacer lift first time around on the first one (2011) but no sooner did we install the spacers the struts blew, so I then did no spacer and added the Rough Country loaded struts. The second Grand Cherokeee was a 2013 WK2, I did the Rough Country loaded struts again in the front with two strut shims and JBA UCA's. Both Jeeps I installed Wrangler take off wheels and tires (32") with 1.5" wheel spacers.
Nice work. Looks great.
Night and day! Truck looks great.
Looks killer! Doing this to mine for sure!
Looks good !
Nice work guys! Ready to wheel!
Beautiful.
Thanks!
Like it Nice job guys ❤
Man that looks sick AF ! 🔥💯 I have the same kit just havent installed it yet . I was told i might have problems with the brake lines not reaching ! But you guys made it look really smooth . 💯
Thanks bro! We thought about extending the break lines to. But we didn’t. What we did do was detach them from the clips that hold the break lines to the axle. So it has extra slack to flex. Thanks for watching! Also don’t forget to give us a LIKE!
Link to that kit?
You can find the kit at Rough Country 😁
Beautifully done sir! I miss mine! Dying to get back into one
We were hungover but managed to get it done within 3 hrs lol
Thanks for watching!
@@PNWADVENTURES4x4how much would you charge someone to install it on their car?
Looks good!!
Thanks!
CLEAN AF
Thank you man!
Отличный вид! 100% тестостерон 💪
Anyone wondering, I’m assuming this (being a limited WK2) comes with the factory 350mm vented front disk brakes. He’s running a 17x9 +12mm wheel and you can see it clearly works. Offset had everything to do with clearing the caliper bracket!
Everyone says you can only do 18 inch wheels with the Limited, overland, summit, and HD brake kits….this guy made it work fine!!!!
Yes! I had done some research before buying wheels. Kept reading you could only do 18” as well, but I took a chance 😅 and it worked 😂🤙🏻. I also once saw on IG someone put these same wheels on there jeep but with a -12 offset. Looked awesome!
I like that Jeep 😍👌
Thanks!
Nice
You guys are fantastic. Wonderful teamwork. Did you install skid plates?
Thank you! And we did not install skid plates.
Love it! I thought that this grands only came out with air suspension! couldnt find a single one on springs. 💥🔥🔥
That is called Quadralift. It comes on Trailhawks standard. It’s often equipped on the higher trim levels also. It’s not as common on Laredo and Limited trim models. Look for those and you’ll find one without Quadralift easily.
just got my roughcountry suspension system lift and wheels 20x9 and nittos
Nice!!! I love the way mine came out! Im sure you’ll like yours!
how did you guys deal with the air suspension when installing the lift?
Do you think this would work on a 2018 jeep grand Cherokee high altitude with a 2.5 inch lift ? Same wheels and tires ?
The jeep looks great !
What size is the backspace on the wheels ? 4.5 or 5.5? Thanks
Thank you!
I believe its 5.5”
My wheels are 17x9 +12 offset.
Thanks for watching!
Lindo demais
Nice !! How much does the kit cost?
Looks dope! I’ve always wondered, what makes the wheels stick out more from the side? I saw a Jeep once similar to this one with a lift, but the tires were sticking out a little bit more from the sides.. i think that would be a cool look for this whip too
That is the “offset” or “backspacing” of custom wheels. If you’re using factory wheels, wheel spacers can achieve the same look.
@@NathanaelPittman Ty! I thought it'd be a cool look, however I imagine parking in tight spaces may become a bit trickier
@udopiarecords4549
Unless you run mud/gravel guards and wheel arch flares,
Running wheels with wider offset backspacing, wider rim/tire widths, or wheel spacers may result in some wear and tear on the bodywork near the wheel arches, or fling stuff at other vehicles on the road. This breaks windows, and chips paint on other cars.
The stock wheel arches catch most of that stuff if you are flush or tucked. But if you are poking - in some states it's illegal for your tire tread to protrude out beyond the wheel arches UNLESS you widen the arches with flares, and run mud guards. You still get that "broad shoulder" look... but it catches most of the crap off-road tires like to fling.
The only thing I've ever seen that likes to fling crap worse than an AT or MT tire is a tack only sticky semi or full slick. That soft rubber just loves to hold on to stuff and then zip it of at mach snot.
The poke look does look pretty sick on a 4x4 but if you are gonna do it - do it right and make sure you consider other road users,
I'm sure all of us have had to replace a windshield at some point because of a stone or road debris strike... and we all know that sucks.
What's the wheel specs? The fitment looks perfect. Also no issues running 17s? I'm wanting to do the same. Love the meaty tire look.
Wheels are 17x9 +12 offset. Running 275/70 tires. Only issue is they rub a little when turning but nothing too crazy!
Thanks for watching, dont forget to like, subcribe, and share!
I’m in the Portland area. Wondering where you’re located and how much you’d charge for installation of this lift? I also have a 2017 WK2 limited.
This is just a hobby. We are not professionals lol we just do it on our vehicles. Thanks for watching!
Own a Jeep like this one. I love love my Jeep. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Yes it’s a very nice jeep
Hey una pregunta si gasta mucho gasolina verdad
No gasta mucho.
Great job 👍! I've been looking at that same kit. On the rough country website it says that it fits V6 only. It obviously looked perfect on your hemi. I have a diesel which is a little heavier. How does the Jeep ride now? Thanks!
It rides good, just a tad bit stiffer but not much could barley tell the difference. And I actually have the V6.
Thanks For Watching!
@@osvaldocastro4909 thanks for the reply and letting me know the motor. The quick shot of the motor with the V made me assume hemi. I'm glad you're happy with the setup
How much did mpg change?
Honestly i don’t think it changed much, maybe went down 3-5 mpg
Thanks for watching!
Necesito una recomendación urgente, jajaja, tengo dos spacers en frente de dos pulgadas pero al girar la llanta completamente toca con el plástico, quiero comprar este kit para levantarlo y combinarlo con los spacers que ya estan puestos, nota en la parte se atras tengo 38” y en frente tengo 35”
Love it~ what's the cost and can you do mine?
So clean! I have the exact same Jeep, what rims are those?
Wassup! The rims on the Jeep are RockTrix RT105 17x9 +12 offset. Thanks for watching!
Muy Perron compas, donde iso rub la tire how you guys fixed that
Gracias! Iso rub un poco cuando le das vuelta enfrente alli como enseña en el video.
I didnt fix it, asi lo deje, casi no pega nomas cuando le das vuelta pero muy poco.
Sick! I got a 2019 Altitude 4x4 with the same lift, need tires! recommendations on size to avoid any rubbing?
This jeep is sittin on 32s and had to do very little cutting on the fender lip. Thanks for watching!
I have 265/65 toyo open countries on 18" stock rims. And I don't rub. They end up being just over a 31.5. And it's on the stock suspension as well
Do you have an offset on the wheels
Wheel and tire size you go for? Looks nice
It’s running on 17x9 +12 offset, with 275/70R17
Did you end up putting on wheel spacers to deal with the rubbing?
No I did not, slightly rubs when turning but not enough to matter, to me at least.
Thanks For watching!
Is it Quadra trac 2 or Quadra drive?
That is really cool how did you deal with the robbing😊😅
To Be Honest i havnt done anything 😅 still rubs when i turn, not much thooo.
Do you need to extend your axles so it won’t rub with your cv boots?
No did not have to extend the axles. Thanks for watching!
Greta video!. So what tire size would you recommend for no rubbing at all?.
El nombre de los shocks para levantarla
Hey nice Jeep what size tires are you running
Hey whats up!
Im running 17x9 +12 offset, with 275/70R17 tires.
Thanks For Watching!
Do you have a link for the rims and tires? They look nice 👍
Hello! Wheels are from RockTrix Wheels and Tires are BFGoodrich K02
Grand Churrokee😂😂😂😂. I'll be getting this lift in a few weeks on my same exact vehicle
Niceee! Let me know how it goes!
Thanks for watching!
I’m having trouble with the rear struts… the sleeve won’t fit ..any recommendations
I had to press mine in and lubed them up a bit. Hope you made yours work!
Amigo una pregunta no tiene problema con el caliper ? No pega en el fin 17 / actual mente tiene 18 de fábrica
No amigo, no tube ningun problema con el Caliper
How are the struts and springs holding up, do you still have a comfortable ride??
Struts and springs still running great. Still a comfortable ride.
@@PNWADVENTURES4x4 Thanks.🙏
Nice.... 👍 Can this be done to SRT grand Cherokee too?
Check on this website Rough Country
I wanna know also? I think not but in not sure
How’s the rub when turning? Those tires look pretty huge.
Yeah I'd like to know how they fixed the tire rub, I'm looking at getting this same lift for my Jeep, love how this turned out!
It rubs on inner fender just a bit. Nothing to worry about.
@@PNWADVENTURES4x4 Thanks for the response!
Can you also lift the ones with air suspension ?
Not 100% sure, but I do think they offer a conversion kit
I have a question? When it comes to long drive on a highway and driving like 140-150 km/h does is bouncing too much? How it feels is? Is it too bad? Thanks
Doesn’t bounce, feels almost like factory suspension!
@@osvaldocastro4909 thank you
Ngl, i'm not into lifted vehicles unless they are really being used off road... (not saying yours isn't)
The whole "bro truck/mall crawler" thing is silly (a 4x4 should see some dirt now and then)
Spend 60k on a rugged 4x4 and never actually use it?! Makes no sense.
But That looks damn GOOD. Good taste in the bronze wheel color. And the lift is just right without being obnoxious.
Well done!
What is the offset of the wheel? Need to know so it doesn’t stick out too much or is too far in that looks wired.
Has a +12 WheelOffset
What size tires are these? Im waiting on my lift not sure what size i can fit
It’s running on 17x9 +12 offset, with 275/70R17
Do these struts and springs feel better worse or the same as factory?
Better!
Quedo exelente, yo tengo un jeep Grand Cherokee 2014 y quiero ponerle ese mismo kit 2.5" lif kit pero tengo duda con mis rines y llantas son 275 45 20 si que daria o tengo que modificar algo más? Gracias por su ayuda !
Creo quedaría bien podría subir la lonja de la llanta 275/60 275/55
Acabo de ordenar solo la duda es mi jeep no es 4X4 aver qué pasa
Hi. What size tyre did you install
I went with 275/70 R15 on 17x9 wheels
I was looking for suspension lift kit. Can u rate how it drives ??? Right now I have spacer and I think it sat a bit.. there is one more dobinsons lift kit too for wk2. That's bit expensive. So wanna spend money on right thing
It still rides pretty good. I rate it a 8 only issue i have is in the front it has a small rake after having it a couple years.
@@osvaldocastro4909 thank u for replying. Can u explain little wjat is rake ??
@@chobbar.wk02 Rake is a form of saying that the front “Saggs” a little.
@@osvaldocastro4909 ohhh got u bro thank u
Is it possible on version Oberland with 3 level suspension ?
If they offer a 3” lift kit, then yes, currently on these newer models i believe they only offer a 2.5” lift
Did you have to get a tire alignment after?
Yes we did!
From Seattle here 206 what shop is this at ?
Hey whats going on!
And this is done at a private shop that we were able to use.
Do you need a drive shaft extension?
Did not need one!
This kit can fit on a rwd? Its any differenced between 4x4 and RWD? Thanks
I’m sure it would
@@PNWADVENTURES4x4 thanks bro
Work on a 2011 jeep grand Cherokee RWD??
No haven’t worked on one. Thanks for watching!
The rear ones are kinda to short for my 2015, are you guys doing any adaptation?
No adaptions, installed what the kit came with.
Thanks For watching!
I'd suggest the 2.5" loaded strut and get a 2" spacer from Supreme Suspensions, it's what I did
Do you know the reason why they only have those loaded struts for 4wd models?
I would imagine it has to do with it being Independent Suspension, versus a Solid Axel
@Osvaldo Castro lol it'll actually fit the 2wd models as well. I have a 2" spacer from Supreme Suspensions on the rear and these 2.5" loaded struts, makes the WK2 look so much better.
What tire size do you have and what type of tires do you have
Hello, they are 275/70R17 on BfGoodrich K02
@@osvaldocastro4909 thx
You put the shock upside down
it seem looks like in states is it normal to mount new parts on dirty parts...
do you think its possible to do that to an SRT Jeep
Yes you can!
How’s the ride quality?
Smooth!
Que medida de llanta y neumático instalaron ?
Llantas BFGoodrich K02 medida 275/70 R17 miden 32”
