Should probably mention this kit requires drilling and anti-corrosion painting to install the rear shock extenders and rear bump stop blocks. The required drill bit is a non-standard 13/32", so be sure to pick that up as well.
Ya if you just this crap. Then realize it's junk and have to get a real lift. Just Get a real lift. I bought this and installed it. What a waist of money. .I now have a metalcloak 3.5 gamchanger lift. So much better. In and offroad. And I can go faster with control as well as flex over the rocks and larger holes and un even terian.
So here’s a really dumb question. The Mojave is an inch higher than the other gladiators. If you put a 2” lift on, is it then 3” higher that the others?
@@FMunixxx yup, I ended up installing AEV geometry correction brackets, Yeti front track bar, Teraflex rear track bar bracket along with this 2in lift. It helped correcting the caster and the Jeep rides as stock now.😊
PLEASE…. I got this kit from you guys over a year and some change ago, for some reason all the rubber boots of the all my 4 sway link bars are rotten (and it can not be the sun, they are under the vehicle) …. So: where can I get replacements??? Thanks
Rubicon and Mojave Gladiators offer good shocks out of the box, especially Mojave Fox 2.5”. Sport or Overland I would recommend at least finding some used Rubicon fox shocks/springs for cheap to match the factory coil spring rates
Yes, this kit is compatible with both Gas and EcoDiesel engine options because it uses the factory springs and shocks. The 2" poly spacers simply raise the height of the body.
i went with 1.5 inch rock krawler lift so i dont need bump stop or mess with driveline or have to use the cheesey shock extenders or sway bar links i can just add spacers n leave it all stock i run 35 x 12.50 x 18 bfg all terrian on negative 12 offset on stock suspension people need to check out custom offsets/cpm you can see what prople have done n what you can fit on your ride from real people in the gallory
I have a stupid question but will this lift my rubicon 2 inches more than the stock lift? So I would have a 4 inch lift essentially? Does it retain the rude quality of my rubicon now?
Dear, Rod Jarrell It is required to bring the vehicle for an alignment when to lift the car 2" and to install 35x12.50r17 tires? How much does it affect the fuel consumption and performance of the Gladiator, such as the original articulation and stability? Does it consume more fuel in the city and on the highway? Thanks for all your good videos and information
Yes, an alignment is always recommended anytime you complete any suspension work. With a simple spacer like this, the only adjustment that can be made is to straighten the steering wheel by adjusting the drag link. If you're comfortable with the procedure you can complete the adjustment yourself, of you can take it to any shop that does vehicle alignments. Yes, it will affect fuel consumption and performance as you're changing the suspension geometry and raising the overall height of the vehicle and the center of gravity. You'll most likely see a increase in fuel consumption, especially if you also install oversized tires on your Jeep.
@@Quadratec Hi , 1000 Thanks for your answer...If you have details and references about how much to increase of gas consumption, with 35 tires....please can could to send me....Thanks..

Looks good but a waist of money and time. It does not give you better off road capability. . I bottom out the first time I went out to the Mojave desert at trona pinnacles. It now has a metalcloak 3.5 lift and drives better and truly is more offroad capable. Yes you can drive on the road and drive on fire roads . But you won't be happy .
that stock to lifted transition was spot on. take my money!

4:05 nice way to show the before and after!
Thanks!
That is pretty cool
agree....that videography and transition was great....had to watch that section a few times
Does one need a rear relocation track bracket?
That is one of the nicest looking Gladiator's I've seen. Almost want to trade in my '21 JLUR in on it. Almost....lol
Ttptooot
Flogfof
Rob you gonna get us all bankrupted

@@taraaaron1242 if you just this grammar
I’m already there ☺️
So here’s a really dumb question. The Mojave is an inch higher than the other gladiators. If you put a 2” lift on, is it then 3” higher that the others?
Hi Rob, do we need to install new control arms and track bar, for this upgrade?
Those aren't required by the kit but the AEV JL geometry correction brackets are recommended
@@FMunixxx yup, I ended up installing AEV geometry correction brackets, Yeti front track bar, Teraflex rear track bar bracket along with this 2in lift. It helped correcting the caster and the Jeep rides as stock now.😊
What TIRES are those? You reference the wheels, but…??
Hi. Could you please tell me if this would work for the Gladiator Sport ecoDeisel? I'm a bit confused. It doesn't say anywhere.
Good afternoon, I got this kit and there are two small aluminum sleeves about 1/2” long in a bag with stickers. What are these for? 5:07
Is the fender of the car in the video Mopar High Top Fender? And what is the tire size in 4 minutes and 12 seconds?
Just bought this for my Mojave, 37x12.50, regearing to 5.13......do I need to get longer lower control arms with this lift for caster? what size?
So you don't need to install the caster correction brackets from AEV? I've heard yes and I've no?
Do you recommend replacing the track bar and control arms with this lift?
Is there an ETA as to when these will be in stock?
PLEASE…. I got this kit from you guys over a year and some change ago, for some reason all the rubber boots of the all my 4 sway link bars are rotten (and it can not be the sun, they are under the vehicle) …. So: where can I get replacements??? Thanks
What is the difference between the kit for Rubicon vs Mojave???
what is the differance in kits from mojave to rubicon i bought the one for mojave but am buying a rubicon will it fit the rubicon
I just ordered this kit; excited for it to come in.
How you like it ?
Have it installed for about 7 months so far no issues. I find I hear some squeaks early in the morning but not much after that. Good affordable lift
So Do I need to get diff shocks for this kit? I’m seeing mixed reviews online about keeping stock shocks on with this kit.
Rubicon and Mojave Gladiators offer good shocks out of the box, especially Mojave Fox 2.5”. Sport or Overland I would recommend at least finding some used Rubicon fox shocks/springs for cheap to match the factory coil spring rates
Need this for my stock JT
So, will this kit be ok to use with add weight of the EcoDiesel!?
Yes, this kit is compatible with both Gas and EcoDiesel engine options because it uses the factory springs and shocks. The 2" poly spacers simply raise the height of the body.
What kit would I need for an 80th Anniversary edition Gladiator?!?
i went with 1.5 inch rock krawler lift so i dont need bump stop or mess with driveline or have to use the cheesey shock extenders or sway bar links i can just add spacers n leave it all stock i run 35 x 12.50 x 18 bfg all terrian on negative 12 offset on stock suspension people need to check out custom offsets/cpm you can see what prople have done n what you can fit on your ride from real people in the gallory
Share a picture of it
@@CC-zb2gs i would if i knew how i know rock krawler has a pic or youtube does it raises it 1-1/2 inch n keeps haf the rakes
When will this be available again?
There's a sound on the floor of the car after I set it up. I want to solve the problem.
Will this work with 20" in wheels and tires. 35/12.5/20?
Why is this not available?
Do you need an alignment after?
Thanks for this video, I'm prob going to go out an buy this kit. Can you run 37 inch tires? 37/12.5? What size tires are you showing in your video?
He answers this at 0:55. Rubicon or Mojave can fit 37 x12.5, that's what's on this one in the video. All other trims can fit a 35 x 12.5.
Everything's "probably" made in the U.S.A.?
Can it run a nitto 38x12.50r17?
That is one sweet ride!!!
Can this handle off road use?
Absolutely
Awesome look! Does that level it as well?
NO!
Don't level Gladiators if you have more than 200lbs of gear in the back - It goes all saggy...
Good kit, for spacers. Better to do the spring lift.
What about for the Willys? What model kit should it go with…?
Same kit.
Does this kit account for the additional weight of the diesel as well?
I got same question and can't figure it out.
I like it a lot! 👍🏻🇺🇸
Does this kit level the ride as well?
Nope. 2” front and rear. Keeps the factory rake Sport,Overland, Rubicon or factory level on Mojave.
With this lift, will 37s fit on a sport with max tow package?
I’d say so. I run 35s with NO LIFT on my Sport Max Tow.
What about a Willy’s
How much was the kit again please?

Just buy a lift I heard spacers in the long run not as good
all I can say is creeeeeeek creeeeeeeeek
thats what mine sounds like now.
So what do you recommend then ?
Looks good but a waist of money and time. It does not give you better off road capability. . I bottom out the first time I went out to the Mojave desert at trona pinnacles.
