    I'm currently doing a "budget build" on my 05 LJ. Inexpensive two inch lift, 31" BFGs, and a winch. Every time I think about modifications, I have to tell myself "budget build, budget build". 😆

    I would LOVE to see some actual JK content on JK gear and gadgets. You did one random video a while back where you were all about making more clearance so you raised those rear shocks. It would be badass to see a lot more JK content of literally anything!

    Way cool video! Considering a XJ for my boys going into Highschool, rather than turning over keys of the JKU to them. What you might not realize you did by sticking with a 15” wheel and a 31” tall tire is keep good sidewall for airing down! Real nice! Also those Falken Wildpeak AT’s are pretty capable for a AT. We beat the snot out of them in the JK before going MT. Rad XJ coverage.

    I highly recommend a iron man or stinky fab no lift shackle relocation bracket for the rear leaf spring to get the correct shackle angle it’ll help tremendously on rear ride quality after lifting it it’ll also strengthen the rear shackle mount there bad about rotting and breaking off under a lot of stress

    Great video! Love the Warn/Factor 55 gear improvements. Genius! Too bad you aren't still in VA, Ben. I have a full set of 5-33" Mickey Baja Boss tires & wheels that would look awesome on the Cherokee (post-lift + adapters).

      @@JKGearandGadgets Bought Becky a '24 Rubicon w/Xtreme Recon pkg (Black, of course). 2" lift, 35s 4.56 gears & full float rear axle. Loaded with all of the electronic & safety bells & whistles too. We salvaged all of the JK build parts that survived the crash. The Baja Boss tires only had 650 miles on them when the Jeep was totaled. They are in my shed. I even have an unopened box of upper & lower control arms from Metalcloak that I was going to put on that weekend. 😐I already have a set on my JK.

    • @JKGearandGadgets
      @JKGearandGadgets  5 годин тому

      Yep, my next video will have a lot of XJ work in it, full budget lift kit install! I bet more than 65% of people will skip through the build work and only watch the filler. Crazy how things have changed over time. People want a mix of projects, discussions, fast paced work, slow meticulous work, social interactions, entertainment, knowledge, build completion etc, all in one convenient 20 minute free video. Hard to appeal to everyone and still positively impact a few... TLDR, welcome to this weird modern era!
      Hopefully you enjoyed the video, a full encompass of the few days during which i worked on the XJ Build.

    I would say add-a-leaf is not budget friendly if you change it out to full leafs after a few months. Biggest waste of money I ever made.

      @@JKGearandGadgetsAt the time I thought they rode fine, but after a 6 weeks and a few light trail rides the old leads sagged even more. I switched to full packs and it rode noticeably better. Also the leafs suck to work on and I cursed myself for having to do it twice to save a few bucks. Got the IRO 3.5" for about $350.

    1st: Love the content on your channel. Started watching back when you were building your JKU, binge-watched the TJ build, and like the budget-friendly ideas.
    2nd: This constant jump between sentences is making the video almost unwatchable. Its too jarring and distracts from being able to focus on the content and what you are doing.
    Please just go back to a smooth video. I don't care if it takes a minute or two for you to walk two paces, that is more natural.
