I want to thank Bubba and Exodus 4x4 for building my Jeep. I couldn't be happier about how it came out. The attention to detail, honesty, integrity, and customer support are second to none. I highly recommend letting Exodus build your off road vehicle. I did a ton of research prior to picking what I wanted on my jeep. Initially I wanted the double throw down system, but Bubba said it would be pointless and cost me more money. I appreciated the honesty. Thus, we went with the coil overs. For those that are asking about how much it all cost, I can tell you everything on the jeep is high quality to include the installation. If you want to build something like this from scratch with everything you saw in the video you're gonna be close to 25k installed. Worth every penny IMO.. Looking forward to getting this out to Moab and Nevada for some great trails. Make no mistake this build will continue. Axles and 6.4L Hemi are on the list.
I couldn't be happier with my 2.0, great choice and sweet build. I went with the EVO 4.5 Overland with King 2.5s and love it. I overland so didn't need the coilovers, but with 37s you roll over almost everything. I never regeared but I didn't lose power, hit all 8 gears, get up to 100mph faster than I should, can smoke my tires, and get 22mpg on the highway. Thanks for sharing your build.
hello Andrew...I just bought this Jeep today...is there anyway to get ahold of you and the parts cost ect of what exactly is done to the Jeep? or can the shop send me the info and pricing for what is on the Jeep...this is an amazing build and rides like a dream!
i have the 2.0 e-torque in my 18, and i am extremely impressed with it. i do need to re-gear even on the 35s for the loooong mountain passes. it needs a tiny bit more pep at 10,000 feet. but man it's a screamer in town at 5000 ft. once PSC releases their 2.0 I4 hydro assist kit i'll be even happier.
I would come to you to build my diesel gladiator next year! From Connecticut is a long way,but your people are passionate about your builds! Coupled with your knowledge I think it will be money and time well spent!
Exodus 4x4 my cousin lives in Pearland! I think it’s still a hike to you but would be a great excuse to visit for a couple weeks! Will definitely be in touch when I get closer to pulling the trigger!
Nice build, and love the long arm suspension!!! That Jeep can drive you to work and can climb off road with some serious articulation. Thx for sharing, most of us shy away from the long arm, that is building it right the first time!!
Honestly think litebrite's step child is the peak - all the parts have been taken and thrashed and upgraded and now that thing just keeps on ticking no matter what you throw at it
Exodus 4x4 , Great job, with integrity, honesty.. Rarity in this day an age ! Buying a new Bronco two door when available...Hope Exodus 4x4 expanse to Bronco!
Exodus 4x4 I honestly would if I wasn’t all the way across the country! Color scheme and wheels is exactly what I want glad I could finally picture it!
I would have tossed in the evo front axle truss, rcv axle shafts front and rear, synergy steering system and track bar braces. other than that seems like a fairly cost friendly capable rig
Wayalife has the same suspension on his JL minus the tuning. I think it was around 13-14k for the lift and labor alone with evo installing it. They have a sweet install and flex vid on it.
I agree with the tire carrier. In the long run waiting for a swing out carrier like poison spyder has for the JK. I like the tires also and would be curious how they’d be on my Teraflex nomad wheels. Would be curious to see a side by side with other brand long arm kits, other than those coil overs. If any other brand could stack up to them(Metalcloak, and Teraflex). Enjoyed the video😉
Wow! That is an awesome build! Great job. You also talked about sliders for the springs to avoid the popping sound. My jeep makes that that same sound. Are these aftermarket and where can I get them?
How much for a gladiator with Dana 60 eight bolt hubs so I can run highway or change tires to 37” for off road? With 6 speed manual transmission and manual transfer case? And how much if I make the axles?
Bubba, thanks for the vid. These walk around type videos are really helpful for trying to figure out what I want to do and am not near a reliable shop like yourself. Couple questions on wheels.... That looks like a daily driver with a lot of highway miles you said. How do you feel about beadlocks on daily drivers??? Would your recommend them or pic the simulated beadlock version? Would you pic a wheel that could run either, like the mopar beadlock? What are your other go-to wheels? Thanks!!!
I think Evo is working on more systems for the diesel. They have a 2.5” kit that I believe you can get with long arms but there’s more stuff under those to work around. Plus, since it’s a coilover set up, you should be able to adjust them to compensate for the extra weight.
Hey man, love your channel. Question: who makes that front diff skid? I’ve got the metal cloak read diff skid and I am I need of a front. Thanks in advance.
Love the work you guys do, but don't like products pushed on me. And by the way, Warn winches are made in China as well - just assembled in the U.S. And I used Smittybuilty winches and have never had a fail. Not saying Warn isn't quality, but why spend the extra money just to spend the extra money? IJS
awwww man dude,i got about 5k and im just ready to pull the trigger man,but properties are getting cheap and i wanna be smart but good.......ness gracious watching this video is so damn tempting XD lol,please dont reply cause i will love you but hate you lmao XD
@@Exodus4x4 I was pretty tired up on getting a gladiator then lite brite did a costout on their sweepstakes glad...They were honest and put $50k of gear on a $44k sport plus. No labor.. Blew my mind. Had to reset and re-imagine. Then you busted on my diesel..lol. I'll get there. You need to make a deal for special pricing at the jeep dealership you always shoot your videos at. Then do builds right off the showroom. Take care bubba..You have the most legit jeep channel out there. I appreciate it.
What do you want to know? It was my Jeep. I’ll tell you exactly what you’re getting into. What I can’t tell you is what a second rate shop will charge you. Nor can I tell you what kind of customer service you’ll get. But if you want to know exactly all I had, what it cost, and what customer service I got (Which was second to none) let me know. Happy to share. 👍
Badlands 12k winch is way better than any Warn winch for the true value. Rockslide Engineering steps, rust extremely easy if you have them in the Midwest. They fail to raise all the way after a a couple of years. IMO, if there was any engineering at all on this, they should all be fired.
Beautiful jeep aside from those front bumper bump stops. What and WHY?? so ugly and I can't imagine them serving much purpose. PLEASE take them off, they look silly

If u pay 25k for suspension expect 150 thousand for axles and engine and transmission and transfercase lmfaooo
Oh no i gotta build a custom cross member lol i mean i got charged 16k for a custom cross member 🤣🤣🙈

After watching your video I subscribed immediately. You clearly know what you’re talking about.
Respect the build and the advice you gave the new owner.📸
One of the best and most informative videos on youtube. Thank You! So good that I'd consider shipping to you to have this work done.
That is a bad ass jeep for sure! Love that setup!
This is as far as I want to go with my Jeep. Perfect upgrades and with the perfect brands
Great build my brother of course because you build bad ass jeeps

Great build. When you find “Unobtainium” sliders I’ll drive out from NorCal for install. 😉
Same here 👍

Well, we’ve got a build coming up before Baja that will top anything I’ve done to date. Keep an eye out!
Exodus 4x4 , Great job, with integrity, honesty.. Rarity in this day an age ! Buying a new Bronco two door when available...Hope Exodus 4x4 expanse to Bronco!
We will absolutely be taking care of the new Bronco!
Plan on coming to you this spring from Dallas area for a 4.5" lift with 37's on my gladiator
Looking forward to it!
Heck ya man cool video!! We are building a Jeep scrambler on my channel! Love the Jeeps!!
Literally almost exactly how I want to build
Send it over and we’ll get you fixed up!
Exodus 4x4 I honestly would if I wasn’t all the way across the country! Color scheme and wheels is exactly what I want glad I could finally picture it!
Need coilovers in my life! 🥵
I would have tossed in the evo front axle truss, rcv axle shafts front and rear, synergy steering system and track bar braces. other than that seems like a fairly cost friendly capable rig
Great job with build. Approximately how much did that setup cost with installation?
Looks like this is easily around the 13k+ mark or more for parts alone. The title is "The Perfect JL Build" not "The Cheap JL Build" lol.
Wayalife has the same suspension on his JL minus the tuning. I think it was around 13-14k for the lift and labor alone with evo installing it. They have a sweet install and flex vid on it.

What would take me 15 years to build takes rich people with money one month.
Nice tires but I prefer the Mickey thompson Baja Boss or MTZS
I have those same wheels. I love them. MR 312
That is the Method 106 Beadlock, MR312 is Streetloc, not Beadlock.
Can you go more into detail about the "sliders" (I think thats what you called them) that you used to not have popping noises from the coil springs.

What's the cost on this built ?. I'm interested in similar build

Strictly highway, beadlocks are pointless. Unless you wheel often enough to justify it then just stick to regular wheel.
@@Exodus4x4 awesome! thanks for replying back!
How much flex does it have for rock crawling and do it require limiting straps?
What was the cost of the suspension out the door?
I'm sure it's in the neighborhood of $20K
Can't go wrong with Sting Gray (grey?)
Is there such thing as unbreakable rock sliders and skid plates?
Nothing is unbreakable
@@Exodus4x4 not even the bullet proof military vehicles in the rocky mountains?
Anything can break man
What's a build like this cost?
Really nice build but I hate seeing cheesy hose clamps holding the shock reservoirs on. I'd use stainless banding or something more appealing.
We actually sheath them in heat shrink now to hide them better, but the install was done last year.
Would you recommend this set up on the EcoDiesel or would you do this and get stronger springs since it is 4-500lbs heavier in the nose?
I think Evo is working on more systems for the diesel. They have a 2.5” kit that I believe you can get with long arms but there’s more stuff under those to work around. Plus, since it’s a coilover set up, you should be able to adjust them to compensate for the extra weight.
Surprised you guys keep the stock steering components when throwing on 37s.
#futureupgrades
What color is that Rubicon?
Stingray
So if I were to get that same kind of set up. What would be the estimate on it?
Probably over 25k
please name of the color of the Jeep.
Bo whats the ballpark price for the Evo long arms with the King coil overs installed on a 2019 3.6 JLRU?
With the Adams drive shaft....
Evo website says ~$9k plus 22-30 hours of labor... plus driveshafts at ~$1,400 plus install
how many inch lift?
About 3.5”
Roughly what's a build like this cost? Would $20K get the job done?
That’s about right
@@Exodus4x4 Sweat build, it would be nice if you mention the cost in your vids......or a round about cost.
What’s the ride height?
Usually about a 3.5” lift equivalent
@@Exodus4x4 Whats the overall Jeep height? Think ive got 83in of garage entrance to play with
How much did this build cost?
I don’t exactly remember, but probably around $16-18k
It would Look Tight with Red Bead Locks...
where are you going to mount the front license plate?
No where. I keep it under my seat. Lol
Hey man, love your channel. Question: who makes that front diff skid? I’ve got the metal cloak read diff skid and I am I need of a front. Thanks in advance.
Pretty sure it’s Rancho, but I’m not sure since he put it on
Could you put up how much all that stuff was?
The owner said it cost $25k

The connections on the Warn are better and more reliable, so there’s that.
“It’s a good place to start” well I guess I ain’t starting for another 5 years
What is the ballpark price for what you did to this jeep?
Owner says 25k
Where is he going to mount front license plate?
You can get a plate that screws into the skid plate, there is a company that make those and it works perfectly!
Only thing I dislike are the bronze wheels. Doesn't go well with the color of the Jeep. 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Yeah. I’m thinking I might get a set of KMCs too and stick those on. I wanted something different and unique.
lots of Sting Gray JLs are running bronze wheels. bronze Icons on mine.
