Huge Fan! I have been watching your videos for a few months now. I have the same Jeep, but 06 model and have been copying your moves in Plasti-Diping, Lift kits and larger tires. Keep up the great work. Love your videos.
Nice Teaser Elaine ;) I would like to see more Off-Road Tests of your Grand Cherokee. This current setup looks very nice and proper for the WK. How much space do you have at the wheel house on harder articulations? When can made a video to answer that question will be amazing :)
Hi Elaine, thx for sharing this video. I am about to buy OME suspension kit and would like to know why you decided to buy the stronger springs as the default one are 2990 and 2992. Based on the OME selector, they combine stronger springs with stronger shocks/struts so you have kind a combination which is not standard I would say. Thx ;-)
i run 245/75 duratracs atock no rub barley that is lol. my factory a arm bolt is short. lije by almost a quarter inch came that way new so i lucked out. i am getting this same lift. is it the 2 in?
Nice WK! Is it 2' lift? What tyres do you have and which spacers did you use? Did you have to pinch weld or cut bolts? Any rub? Let me know please, as I am just waiting for my 2" OME HD with JBA A-Arms to arrive ;-)
Anna Kozłowska Thank you :D Its the Ome heavy duty 2inch lift kit. I used spider wheel spacer 1 1/2 inch, 5x5inch. I have the pinch weld mod done. I did not cut the bolts on the spindle. The spacers cleared the bolts. Thats exciting :) I also have JBA arms, but the 1st Gen version. Your wk is gonna be beast with that set up
No it's not common for the spring to squeak like that lol Turns out my inner rack was needing to be replaced. I got it replaced a couple months ago and the noise is gone! Im happy with my old man emu lift, I hadn't have an issue with it. My jeep has now reached 100k and needs a lot of loving lol
who cares how fast he went. 4x4 is slow n steady plus he was feeling out his BRAND new suspension. you do re do a entire suspension kit you dont go hard
dude 4x4 IS slow but not on basically flat terrain or what was shown in the video, i think the river is just new to offroading and doesn't know that even stock height suspension can handle being bumped around
I was laughing at the beginning. Looking out the window like he wasn't going to clear a couple stones
Nice looking rig and fun looking trail, but this is no time to be driving miss Daisy
Didnt even make that nice jeep break a sweat. Awesome looking lift
Beautiful suv I just bought a 05 4x4 and I love it great looking and powerful suv
Ultra SLO-MO action. You should add some bullets whizzing by the Jeep.

Glad I'm not the only one realizing how slow he's going for that very easy trail that a Honda Civic would have no problem going over.
for the lift size i think it showed its capability. i guess today everyone is a premier film maker. I watched it with no problem.
Looks great. Do the 31.5s rub at all, could you go bigger like 32 or 33s?

My volks wagon beetle finished this trail less than half your time.
TheBagBalm good for you.
Now it need an alignment. This video is awesome. I found her channel last night. I love it so much. Plus she's good looking
Was your vw on chevy s10 frame?
The jeep will do a hell of a lot more than what you're asking of it. Trust me.
I've got two.
Looks good in its element.
Shhhh!! Look! Its a Jeep in its natural habitat!!!

Holy cow - that is soooo fast .
I guess , I have a speed rush now.
Don't do this again dude!
Nice GC, looks a little like mine but much cleaner and less beat up :D
Are using any lift spacers?
Nice looking jeep
Dude, that shits so extreme man. I wish I could do that.
In 7 minutes of film you must have driven about 200 yards. I'm all for trail safety but damn, must have taken you 5 hours to do the whole trail.....
Nice jeep I have a 07 3.7 4x4 that's barely going to hit 30,000 miles I'm waiting for my old man emu 2.5 lift to come in
Jose Flores Thank you:D That is some low baby miles wow. That is exciting your Jeep will be great with that lift kit. You'll enjoy it ;p
Yeah not bad for being almost 10 years old!!! Got real lucky and got it from some snow birds who hardly got to drive it!!
jesus i just bought an 07 with 56000 and i thought i that was low. cant wait to put a 2.5 ome on mine
Jose, I also have a 3.7 with QTII. I'm told it is a very unusual setup, yet I searched for a year and bought out of state to get one.

Elaine Chu Mybad, I use Goodyear Wrangler duratracs size 265/70/17
Thank you Elaine! ;-) Last question: do you use EGR Module? My WK is 2005 Rocky Mountain edition and I love that car! :-)
I don't have or use a egr module. I do have a flashpaq programmmer to readjust my speedo. Isn't the egr module for a 4inch lift? That's what I thought
Shoot, one of those that never replys to comments. Too bad .
❤️
Does it ride softer than standart suspension? I an trying to find A suspension that rides softer than standart. Kind Regards
Were you in low range during this?
Hi!! I'm going with the same setup. Do you remove the daystar lift?
Do this suspension give a 2 or a 2.5 inches of lift? And did it differ from the OME MD by height? Thnx
where'd you get the skid plate up front? and did you get any other skid plates?
Pavement Princess
Is it common for the springs to squeak like that? I want to get a lift but am hereing about issues with anything over 2.25" lifts..?
No it's not common for the spring to squeak like that lol Turns out my inner rack was needing to be replaced. I got it replaced a couple months ago and the noise is gone! Im happy with my old man emu lift, I hadn't have an issue with it. My jeep has now reached 100k and needs a lot of loving lol
what in the world is all the creaking noises ? .....is the the OME kit ?
this just 2in?
looks like you didn't air down your tires for the trail
who cares how fast he went. 4x4 is slow n steady plus he was feeling out his BRAND new suspension. you do re do a entire suspension kit you dont go hard
dude 4x4 IS slow but not on basically flat terrain or what was shown in the video, i think the river is just new to offroading and doesn't know that even stock height suspension can handle being bumped around
Its time for a Superlift!
hows it drive on the road with that lift kit?
Are your new tires loud on the highway?
+Phillip Gatelein Not really. Their fine on the highway
Hey, measures of rubbers will have the wk
Nathan Garcia what?
Hi Elaine, is that I would like to know that as of wheels you have for your truck, for example 245/65/17?
How big are the tires
What size is your lift
its an Old Man Emu Heavy Duty 2.5 lift kit. Springs, shocks, and struts
Is the guard metal with circles in the front is it for look or it protect something and can anyone tell me what the name of the part
Think you could go any slower!!!! You so make jeep look bad!!!!
Robbie Robinson floor it buds holy I rip my jeep 10x faster then this
How has reliability been?
Crap lol I spend $1,000's fixing it every summer. Now the wk needs a rear hub assembly because the seal inside leaked
Any videos of this jeep in the mud?
Nope. I went a couple times, but it'll probably be my last. I not a big fan of mud
lol okay i live in colorado but im getting ready to move to ohio. im definitely going to miss it here.
И где тут офроуд??? Да там почти везде стоковый wk пройдет....
