Watching you DIY with a smile makes this video fun! I've loved WJ's for years, and installed $100 pucks all the way up to $3k long arm systems. Unless you wanna start chopping up the body, a 2-3" budget boost with a set of 31's is my favorite combo. Looks tough without all the expense and comments about over-compensating for penile deficiencies. Well done.
Wow 🙀 this is the nicest color I’ve seen on a Jeep. It gives military green vibes
Wjs are simply awesome .
Go got that right buddy!
Great job Dan, looks much better with that simple lift. This things coming back to life.
It sure is buddy! Little by little!
Now you're talking my language, I love WJs! I have one myself, long arms and 35s! Great work Dan!
Wow! 35 on a WJ is Badass!!!
You're a really good mechanic and teacher. And your camera work is superb. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks Brad! I really appreciate that!
@@ProjectDanH Keep up the good work!
That was just enough lift for that Jeep. Very stylish, love the overall look of that wj and that’s gotta be my favorite color for a wj. Nice vid!
Thanks brother.. it's coming together rather nicely
Hey Dan H, DW here in the deep south. As always, much respect for your time and consideration of covering the bases on your diy zj and wj vids. Its the small things like calling out the wrench and socket sizes along the way, and giving hints and tips to make things easier for the guy or gal, that has never done a lift of any kind. Great job again! WJ is coming along great!Knocked it out of the park! Its a JEEP thing :)
Thanks DW! I always appreciate your feedback 💪
Thank you for the video! Got inspired from watching and just finished installing the kit on my 02 WJ. Everytime I fucked up, I referred back to your video to correct my mistakes!
lol, That's great! Thanks for watching!
That couple inches makes a BIG difference!...that's what she said. Keep up the awesome content Dan!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks brother👍
Really nice tutorial! Just bought a very clean '02 steel blue Laredo and this looks like a nice upgrade to put on it. No off-road duties but it'll give it a nice stance without going into suspension mods with a larger lift. Thx
Right on! It is very nice! The only thing I would do differently would be to buy new rear spring isolators instead of using nothing
And THAT'S the way to show an install video. Great job man, I'm going to follow your install for my 04'
Thanks! After this vid i got General Grabber ATx 265/70/17 looks amazing but rubs a bit
Glad about your warning on the coil spring compressor - those things can go horribly wrong if you aren't careful, e.g. broken limbs or death. A whole bunch of fun.
You're welcome... so simple and yet so dangerous!
Love your working music bro. Brought me some joy. Great video
Thanks for watching!!! Glad you enjoy it!
Man that was a great video, epic fast shock removal! Nice job sir!
Glad you liked it! thanks for watching!!
Hello.
Nice to find inspiration about Jeep's. I have many different cars, but have been fascinated by Jeeps too. When I came across a cheap 2000 model, here in Norway, I couldn't resist. Started following your channel and can't wait to find out more!
Greeting
Paul ( Pål )
HI, HOW ABOUT SOME MORE CONTENT ON THE WJ, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE CURRENT PROGRESS ON THAT VEHICLE.
Just filmed it! Coming your way soon 👍
InstaBlaster.
@@ProjectDanH hey boss I jus did same set with my wj but the right side leans ? Any suggestions 🤔 I have all new springs all the way around with the rough country 2inch set up ...
Nice job! It gives the Jeep a nice stance, not to extreme but a noticeable lift.
Yes it does! it's sitting right in that sweet spot
Thanks Dan. I’m new here but this video was exactly what I needed to see. Now I know what lift I’m going with for my WJ.
Awesome brother! Thanks for watching!
@@ProjectDanH no problem. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for this comprehensive video! I might be getting a 2000 Jeep soon and will probably have to do this upgrade.
Thank you for watching, Good luck on the purchase... Glad it was helpful!
Great job Dan !! Keep up the great work .
Thanks, will do!
Good evening from Arizona!!
I purchased my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 1 week ago and just completed installing this kit along with new side mirrors, windshield, wipers, all fluids flushed and clean. New headlights and taillights. Next to do is front and rear brakes along with new heavy duty front and rear bumpers. Thank you Dan for all your input!!!
Great to hear! Sounds like you have a great project Jeep! I wish I had a rust free AZ car!
@@ProjectDanH Good morning Brother!! I tell ya what, I fortunate to find this one on Facebook marketplace. It just crossed my path and put an offer on it and the two ladies were like sure. This vehicle has absolutely no rust. I am very impressed on how well this jeep has been taken care of. I shall keep you updated.
My rough country 2 in lift kit with metal spacers came in yesterday! Stoked!
Awesome man, enjoy! look into the rough country adjustable track bar too
Great video and thank you I'm getting ready to do a 3" lift on my 05 Grand Cherokee and wanted to see what I was in for. Great job & thanks a ton 👍👍
Glad I could help, Not Sure your 05 GC had the same front end. You'll need to look up how to lift a WK with an IFS
i love it, keep it up bro your killing it 🔥
Thank you!!
Awesome video! Now I know how to do mine! Thank you so much!!
you are THE MAN!!! thanks a lot from Italy, I’m your new fan, and my wj too… 👍👍👍
Thanks brother!!n
Dade thanks for this awesome video man. Loved it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for this man. I keep watching it as I'm attempting to install the same on mine.
Awesome! Glad I could help
Got my 04 overland, it's been a beast and still beautiful, thinking about putting a small lift on it. Thanks for the video!
You will need to extend your lower control arms by 1/2", or...buy extended(or adjustable) lower controls arms.
Even doing the basic Budget Boost lift, changed the caster angle enough that it causes death wobble, bump steer, and vague wandering on the hwy.
Excellent! I did get adjustable control arms and an adjustable track bar. 👍
You make look so easy,Last time I try to change my shocks on my 89 Cherokee I cut the brake line and Bolts snapped off. Good Video!!
🤣🤣🤣 now you have experience! Thanks brother 👍
Excellent video Dan. Good job.
Glad you liked it!
I just installed a Rough Country 2” spacer kit (no shocks) on my WJ using this video as a guide. Thanks man! It was a helpful guide and made my job easier when things didn’t line up right. Good video and good luck with your future projects!
thank you so much.. Glad it helped! God bless 💪
I got a question. It may be a dumb question but it's my first jeep and I got 31s on it but I can't turn without rubbing. . If I get these 2 inch spacers. It won't mess yp the water it rides or have to extend anything like bigger stocks springs or etc ?
@@dilley254 I have all factory suspension with 31.5 inch tires. Only mod to suspension is this lift. I’ve been running this lift since I commented this 2 years ago, I don’t think anything rubs. Gone 30k miles with no issues. Truck has held up well in all conditions and the lift hasn’t caused any issues.
Awesome! Thank you very much ! Cheers
Dan, owner of 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 2whl ...thx for your smile and hard work..i learned to have someone do it..haha
LMAO.. anytime!
I got the three inch online and putting new everything u der the front and rear, just got a single 3 inch cat back... Wake it up a little.. Thanks for the vid
That's going to be awesome! Thanks for watching 💪
nice WJ, congratulations! 🎉
Thank you! 😁
Nice very nice i must say. Looks good.
Awesome video as always !
Thanks Kyle!
Looks awesome! Rubicon wheels on ZJs and WJs also just look so dope.
absolutely!
Great video I’m going to order that kit for my WJ Jeep ,thank you
Right on! thanks for watching
Those wheels like perfect on that wj 👌
Thanks man! They definitely do 😁
@@ProjectDanH I have the same wheels/tires on my 98 ZJ.... except they are 16s with a 1.75 lift.
With that 3" lift and you didn't show that you dropped the transfer case. I'm assuming you didn't.
Did you have problems with U joints or front linkage? I had considered a budget 3" lift but was advised not to.
I was told that I would end up having to drop transfer case 1" and purchase extended front end components.
Especially, if I used 4 wheel drive. All I wanted to do is eliminate a slight rub if I hit a bump when turning.
I ran the 16s on it before I put a lift on it. Now there is no rub and it looks good as well
What is the lug nut pattern on the wheels?
@@jasonwhite4527 These Wheels were form a JK Wrangler. Bolt pattern is 5x5. Same as the WJ lug nut threads are 1/2 20
Cool video. The baby jack had me dying lol
Lol! Thanks man!
Dan H, my neighbor got this kit and loves it. He trimmed his fenders and is able to run a 32 inch tire. It is a backup vehicle/trail toy. I was very surprised how well the kit rides and I personally love the stance. Its how the WJ should have come from the factory. Great kit if you just want to start offroading.
Future plans call for long arms and 35s.
Agree 100%!
Love them WJ,s, got an 01laredo, had it 5 years now Im looking at othrr owners ideas
I've got a zj with the rubicon express 2 inch budget boost with shocks and I think it is a really good kit for the money and it keeps the ride pretty close to stock too.
excellent! that's my favorite kind of mod.. subtle enough to almost be stock
This is the exact lift im gonna get and i have an 03, i got 16s but just bought 2 inch spacers and it rubs a little so hopefully this will fix it but when i get the lift in im gonna be using this video to do it 👍🏼💯
that's excellent Austin! congrats and be safe 💪💪💪
Great vid man! I just did this today using the budget boost that was on my old jeep. crazy how much difference 2 inches makes!
(Thats what she said....)
Awesome job hope you have a great holiday
thanks! you too!
Wry elegant Dan , nice and perfect …..
your wj is turning into a wonderful jeep!
Thank you sir! slowly but surely!!
Very much enjoyed this, thank you sir
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome. Easier than I thought so I'll be doing this.
awesome Scott! God speed!
Awesome it great so far everything your doing to the wj I need to do to mine. Glad your doing it first so I don’t make mistakes 😂😂
haha! that's what I'm here for!
@@ProjectDanH so your an office jockey..tell by the hammer & how you hold the ratchet,but,good job,hope your all o.k.with this covid crap..be safe..ausie H..
@@phantomwalker8251 thank man! Same to you 👍BTW haven't worked indoors since 2009. 🛠️
Great Video Brotha! Jeep looks Awesome I will be doing this too mine
Go for it!.. I highly recommend replacing the rear isolators with new ones even though the instructions say to discard... The Jeep is squeaking and driving me crazy! haha
@@ProjectDanH question are you having clacking noises ? People online are complaining about that with this kit. Also will this kit work on my 2wd Jeep Grand Cherokee?
Looks great man! It will be fine for the trails. Send the angry walrus this way
LMAO! angry walrus!!
That was awesome u explained it very well ty
Glad it was helpful!
Looks good. Thanks.
You bet!
Well done brother !
Thanks!
Nice Job man. Good little lift for that rig.
It sure is! glad u liked
Really good video. Done very well.
That's!
Excellent Video!
Thank you!
Another great job by Dan the man
Thank you brother!
Esta quedando sensacional la Jeep grand cherokee wj y siempre es de lo mejor ver tus videos
thank you freddy! 💪
Love the lift!! Can’t wait to see it on the trails!! With Black Beauty!! 😂
hey! was is that a sarcastic bug??? 🤣
Hey Bugs, we meet again. I have an 04 Freedom Edition.
Bro, wish you were my neighbor! Lol...this is just like my son's WJ that we've worked on whipping into off road shape. Our last mod was his lunchbox locker up front.
haha! that's a great compliment. thank you💪
Thanks a lot for the video
You are welcome!
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
the gross thing
lol love the attitude my man
awesome video!!!!!
Thank you!
Great Job Man... I'm going to do lift up 4-inches my 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo... Thank you
Awesome man! Good luck!
The kit for my '04 WJ is on the way from Rough Country right now, thanks google algorithms! Still trying to decide what tire size I can get by with on the stock 16" Laredo rims. I want to go as tall and wide as I can without rubbing, this isn't my daily it's my hunting, hauling Jeep. Thanks for a great how-to vid, you've got a new sub!
Thank Mike! These tires rub a slight bit.. I think I'm gonna go same height but wider and use spacers 💪
Enjoyed it
.
Thanks Dave!!!
Congratulations man, very cool, I have a Jeep Liberty KK here in Brazil and I want to do the same. Hug!
Awesome!
Awesome,perfect
Thank you! Cheers!
thanks
Nice job mate.
Thank you! Cheers!
Love the nba jam music💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
Haha! Heck yea bro!!!
Good job bro!!!
Thanks!!
Thank you....
You're welcome!
love the onyx green. you should put the overland rail sliders back on! I have 3 04 overlands and love them!
Good idea!! I think they probably rotted off lmao! got any ideas on where to find more? Keep cranking out those foxbody vids!! 💪
@@ProjectDanH
Probably won’t be able to find any unless you get lucky finding some secondhand.
Check the for sale area in the forums.
I have a 04 wj 4.7pt QD with a 4” hybrid lift.
Love the wj.
A lot good memories with nba jam game
Yes!!! Im glad you recognized it!
Nice bro 😎
Thanks ✌
Advice! Throw away crapcountry! Check iron rock off-road or Rustys, throw some Bilsteins on it. Good to go! Never skimp on suspension, wait longer to save up for the good stuff. Trust me it’ll pay off! 👍
I appreciate that! I love IRO. I was gifted this set and my stock ones were GONE! I'll upgrade later. lol
Is rough country good for mall crawlers?
Which budget boost is better rusty or roughy country
@@missayawk😂
Do like the color, always lov hunter green. Or near that. Now have the Smokey gray...
my favorite green was the emerald green on early 90s foxbody Mustangs 😁
Good video!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Good Job..
Thanks Kevin!
That NBA JAM music. ❤️
lol! gotta love the old school
That thing looks amazing! I really like the lift, it's the perfect height for it, and it works really well with those wrangler wheels. Although anything would look better that those overland ones, I think they are the ugliest jeep wheels I've ever seen 🤣🤣 Glad to see it coming along, can't wait to see the interior swap. I bet it will look ten times better once that's done.
Thank you so much! It really is coming along nicely 😁. just have A few more things to tinker with.. hopefully I can get it on the road soon
Nice job. .
Thank you! Cheers!
There you have it guys lol thats awesome Dan h
💪 Thanks bro
Thanks
No problem
looking goooood
Thank You!!
Really cool👍😃
Thank you! Cheers!
Iorn rock makes weld on spring perches for the front. If you need to fo calipers. Swap those for the akebonos. O4 front sway bar is 30mm and solid not 31.5 and hollow. Makes the front alot stiffen the rear I left the rear isolator when I did a rc one. No metal on metal clunk. Check that rear upper ball joint too. Jeep looks great
Good eye man, thank you! when I weld in new rear buckets I'll probably get new isolators. I'll definitely look into that away bar 👍
god I miss Long Island SO much. just dont miss all the rust from the winters. haha.
its beautiful here.. rough on jeeps tho!
nice job dan. rough country ride like a rock . i install a 3 inch on my xj love the lift hate the shocks. always great to see your stuff on jeeps
I agree, the 3 inch RC lift on my XJ is stuff as hell. lol
Then what shocks are good?
@@DL-by8el everyone seems to rage about Fox and Bilstein shocks.. I have not yet been able to afford them 🤣
@@DL-by8el bilsteins, or cross reference some quality oem style shocks such as Monroe with the desired length you want like I did. Monroe doesn’t make a “lift” shock so I got some meant for a yj wrangler and I’ve maintained factory ride quality. The Chinese budget boost shocks all ride like garbage
well done!
Thank you!
Hell yea man 🤟
🤙
The Dorman lower mounts work really well to fix the rust spot
Thanks for the tip! I'm definitely going to have to address this eventually
@@ProjectDanH IRO makes a really beefy weld in kit too.
@@jasondaly4922 I want IRO for my upcoming XJ build 😉
wow once you got going you really turned up the speed there, fastest lifter in the east. 😂 stay safe.
lmao! I reduced 10 mins into 1! the magic of editing
@@ProjectDanH I know just kidding. I will send my daughter by she is out east 🤣😂. Actually I would lower her wj she drives fast.
@@badgerpa9 🤣🤣🤣
