super budget 3 inch lift kit on the supercharged grand cherokee. needed tires and I wanted 33s so I made it work temporarily. I chose Bfgoodrich mt km3 tires iv always had good luck with on road ride quality. diy adjustable short arms coming soon and long arms later down the road
I subscribed because you said "i wanna build it, not bolt on new crap. Im a builder, thats what I do".
Thomas, been promoting your channel where I can. Like what your doing. Want to see more ZJ stuff, the Dakotas cool but subbed for the ZJ
Awesome build. 👌
Cool video 👍
Good morning Thomas. Tue. Tallahasse FL. 8:00am est. Just rewatching this tire upgrade over coffee. I like the BFG K3 choice. The best choice for overall use on/offroad in my opinion also. My stock tires, Goodyear wrangler A/T 235/75r15 on the same rims as you have are still 70% tread so I'll keep saving for a winter lift (eyeballs on the, If had more money than commonsense, OME 4.5 short arm kit, yep, bolt on as I not as good as I once was, and, tires BFG K3 probably too), while prepping by keeping my eyes peeled for still good cheap, "yuppie guppie" JL, JK takeoff suspension parts so, I dont take the hit of new parts prices. Anyhoo, looking forward to your next video or update mod. Make it a good day bud!
Hey you made it work bro the hell with anyone that gets in it lol. Iam in the same boat kinda. The video was very helpful👍
I did a very similar spacer for the front shocks. On the rear shocks I welded some 3/16" plate above the axle shock mounts with new holes 2" higher. I'm using just 2" spacers for 31" tires. I also put on some 2" plastic bump stop spacers on the front and welded in some 2" bump stop spacers on the rear because I didn't want to ruin the shocks if it compressed too much. I love the way my ZJ handles off road. Now if only the gas mileage was better! I have the 5.2, would have preferred a 4.0 but we can't be too choosey when searching for craigslist bargains.
2x6 tubing is great for rock sliders. Sticks out enough for a little bit of a side step and can tie in to an external cage.
Wj rear lower control arms are a bit longer for the rear lower,and they are built way better, you have to grind the width a bit for the bushings but they are cheap and put your tire a bit farther away from the body
I got a 3 inch puck lift in the front of my wj and stock height in the back I’m getting some 35 nitro mud grapplers this weekend
Ya mine set up this way and you cant really go trailing without tires hitting the body im going 6" all spring no spacer and with 31s
I had 2 sets of puck spacers and one fit great the other I had to grind out. Glad I bought poly ones
GREETINGS FROM GUATEMALA
BTW , I subscribed and liked...
If you take stock coils and put them in the rear it will lift the rear 3 inches and anything more than a 3 inch lift out gonna want front and rear adjustable track bars and probably buy or build longer control arms
Swapping my 245/75/ 18 to 295/75 18 need 3 in spacers. 3.0 turbo diesel 08 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited
Where can I get in contact with you? I have a couple questions for my zj build
So my jeep is on 3 inch body lift on 265s but I wanna do 33s but I don’t wanna spend 700$ or more on a bigger lift
Great video Thomas!
Just put 2 inch pucks on my zj and didnt realize how much of a difference 3 inch is or I would've went with that I didnt have to do anythung with the front shocks they fit fine
