Literally days before Cindy and I needed to head out to SEMA 2018, we desperately scrambled to make a series of last minute upgrades to our JL Wrangler and specifically, because we were planning to attend the 1st Annual JLX, immediately after the show. Of course, based on past experience, we knew that we'd be needing a bit more lift if only to improve our break over angles and we decided to make that possible with a set of Rancho 3.5" coils and all new RS9000XL long travel shocks. In this episode of the JL JOURNAL, you'll get to see what it took for us to install everything but without going too much into detail as we have in the past. As a reference, I have included a host of links that highlight our previous installations and if needed, they should be able to help you along. We hope you enjoy the video and find the information in it to be useful.

When the wifey says “time for some 40’s you know you’ve done something right”
LOL!! She's also the one who insisted we do an LS swap in Moby.
You married well my friend
I think so. It's been a hell of a fun 25 years :)
Next video? 🤔
I swear, your videos just keep on getting better. And what a lift!
Thank you, we really do appreciate it :)
One of the best channels on TH-cam for Jeeps. Loved watching Jane to the new JL.
Love the shop, I had wanted to stop by with my CJ5. If you haven't subscribed make sure you sign up on the app as well.
I was whispering (he's going to need a spring compressor) each time you tried to fit the springs, then you pulled one out of the back of Jane. Great video!
LOL!! I could have gotten around the need for them had I unbolted the control arms. The jam nuts on the lower arms were binding on the mounts. But, the compressors made things go a lot faster.
This is definitely helpful if I ever want to lift a Jeep. Thanks very much!!! I always enjoy your videos.
Glad to hear it :)
Jeep looks really good with that lift, thanks for another great video. Now it's time to go out and really have some fun.
Well, truth be told, we've been running this lift since just before the JLX. We just now got around to making this video :)
I can't wait to get a hold of the new Gladiator, throw on a 3.5" Lift, 40" tires, and go on a wheeling trip with you guys.
Side thought, you're the only Jeeper I've ever seen who doesn't rip out the plastic inner fenders while installing a lift.
LOL - perhaps I missed the memo but I fail to see why it'd be necessary.
As always top notch filming and editing! Great job. 100k subs coming really soon. Congrats in advance!
Thank you. We really do appreciate it and thank you for your support :)
i dont own a Jeep yet..waiting for mine..but i love your videos. A lot of good information on your chanel. U seem like a legit guy also. :)
Eddie you have to be the best Jeep blogger in the world! And your skills are so Pro. I’ve been thinking of going up to 3.5” but I think I’ll wait to gather more mechanic experience. Freaking awesome job brother!
LOL - I'm truly flattered but I can assure you, this is something you can do as well. In fact, our videos should help to make that possible :)
Ahhh.....Jeep porn. You are quite the mechanic!! Very nice job and a super clean install. Boy, I’m always leery whenever I need to use a spring compressor and you handled it like a champ. Your Jeep looks outstanding. Thanks for sharing this upgrade.
LOL!! Truth be told, this was the first time I've had to use a set of spring compressors in over 20 years. The last time I used them, I was installing a lift on an Isuzu Rodeo. I could have gotten around using them but they sure made quick work of things :)
Awesome job brother!
My new JL just came in today!
White Rubicon Unlimited with the sky roof ! CHEERS !
Congrats to you :)
Sweet i ordered mine JLUR a couple weeks ago I can’t wait
Thank you guys for another great video👍👍👍. Jet is growing up fast, only a year old and I’m sure is experiencing growing pains😂
LOL!! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
For some reason I felt relaxed after the video
Great video, awesome work space, very organized and well explained.
Thank you. We hope that our video is able to help you out :)
That was so awesome to watch! I think i drooled haha! Man I love your videos!
LOL! Thank you, we're so glad you enjoyed it and our videos :)
Dibs on the old lift, lol!! Great video, look forward to the updates, curious if you'll need to adjust the control arms a bit. You always make this stuff looks so easy!!!
Another outstanding video. Jeep looks great.
Thank you :)
Awesome outstanding job performance nice have a great time 👍👍👍
Thank you :)
Impressive work, Eddie!
Thank you :)
Impressive how well you working. Nice Rancho's.
Thank you :)
Love the video editing!
Thank you, we really do appreciate you saying as much :)
I LOVE YOUR GARAGE AND YOUR JEEP, CIAO FROM ITALY
grazie! We're so glad to have people from around the world watch and enjoy our videos :)
Those wheels look fabulous.
Thanks! We're real happy with them :)
Your garage is GOALS.
LOL!! Took more than 20 years to finally have.
Great! Looking forward for my 40’s and 50’s then 😂
Keep it up bro. Looks really good.
Thank you :)
The JL is looking better every day!
If the springs eventually settle down a bit, maybe you won't need 40's! lol
LOL! They've settled a bit but still sit at over 4" of lift. I think we could still run 40's with them but that might be a while.
Another great video 👍learning from the best
LOL!! I'm flattered.
@@wayalife yaaggsvtutvt
What’s up Wayalife 🍺🍺 now I’m gonna watch the video lol
I love how the upper bolts on the jl shocks are more user friendly . especially the fronts. be careful with spring compressors. a guy in one of my fca courses got a spring in the face when one of the clamps slide. 100 stiches inside and out side of his mouth.
Oh yeah, I'm not too fond of spring compressors and really, prefer not to use them. In fact, this is the first time I've used a set in over 20 years. It was just faster and easier than pulling the control arms which were binding at the jam nuts.
Looks awesome!!
Thank you :)
Looks great buddy i’m running the rancho too and i really like it
Awesome, glad to hear you like it too :)
How has it held up? Still happy?
Busted knuckle garage... I never notice I’m cut up till my wife says hey your bleeding... lol 😂 great video man...
LOL!! Glad to hear I'm not the only one :)
Could never do that rock climbing to my new Jeep, I would cry. Vinny 🇺🇸
LOL - you might like it :)
Looks amazing. I have a Rubi same color combo as yours. Love it. Great videos, bud.
So.. can I please, please have that fox suspension setup?? I’m so stock it hurts 😂
I'm very satisfied with my 2" Rancho lift, but damn now I want the taller one ha!
Their 2" kit is spot on nice. I would only go taller if you're ready to address things like your drive shafts and have adjustable control arms.
It will be interesting to see how it looks once the springs have settled
Actually, what you see in the title screen and at the end of the video is what it looks like now that the springs have settled. It is less that before but still more than 4".
Looks amazing
Thank you :)
WOW Eddie that’s a beast also love the poster below the American flag in you shop I just ordered from factory my 2019 white JLUR with body colored fenders, love your videos and passion for Jeeping can’t wait to do some mods like your rig !!!
Heck yeah!! I'm watching right now! As soon as I saw the poster, I SCREAMED! I JUST SUBSCRIBED. #LoveEddiesChannel 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
LOL - thank you. I hope our videos will be helpful to you in the future :)
I agree, i just subscribed as well!

@@wayalife They will and have. No joke, my husband and I have watched ALL of your videos. He has learned so much, and so have I, even while I am crocheting. LOL P.S. Cindy, great videos, editing, and so entertaining!
Awesome Job 👌
Thank you :)
Man I love that garage
LOL! Thank you - it's taken a long time to get :)
Wayalife all those fun toys. I don’t know if you have done a walk-around of your other jeeps, but I’d love to see that video!
@@jonerikgreene1175 We've had a few requests for a garage tour and we hope to do one as soon as it warms up a bit.
Great video thank you!
You bet! Glad you found the video to be useful :)
Another great video.
Thank you :)
Waiting for when you have subscribers on your channel and doing tutorials with you on their builds. Gives us all a bigger scope of different products and builds. Not just the expensive mods people push on the streams.
LOL - Rancho is about as affordable as they get.
Again. Wait this has been your setup for awhile. Now I have to go back and see if I missed something.🤪
I don’t change my shorts this often !
I think she looks perfect 🤩
Thank you :)
That lift looks great. I'm doing the 3.5 as well, but using MetalCloak. Nice job. Keep the content coming. You looked a bit perplexed on this video. What's up brother?
LOL - perplexed?
would I be correct if I said that a suspension lift creates more ground clearance between the bottom of the ladder frame chassis of an SUV & the ground surface??? In turn aiding in increased break over angle!!! Meaning a suspension lift also raises the chassis frame as well since the suspension (hangs below the chassis frame) is attached at or marginally below the chassis level!!!
Hey Eddy, what is the complete height of your JL after this install? My garage header max out is 78". Thank you.
Calamity Jane looks awesome parked next to the JL.
LOL! She's a good Jeep :)
Awesome video and yes wholly 🐄 it seats higher 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
LOL! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
That’s pretty tall LOL. I’d need a ladder to climb into that rig LOL. Great job!!
It's definitely on the tall side and really, not necessary for most people. Their 2" sport lift is more than adequate to clear 37's.
So nice! I’ll take that old lift kit off your hands hahaha I’m sure couple hundred people will ask the same. That looks
Sweet but I’m thinking a bit too big for me when I get mine that dynatrac lift is the sweet spot for me!
Truth be told, we send back products that we test so that the manufacturers can do more R&D. The Dynatrac lift is really nice.
editing is second to none !!!!!....
Thank you, we're flattered you would say as much :)
What do y’all do with the lifts that you take off?
Great video Eddie and Cindy as usual. If you need someone to donate that Dynatrac endurosport lift to, i might just know someone =P
LOL! As is the case with a lot of the products we test, we send back what we got so that more R&D can be done.
@@wayalife Gotcha! well it was worth a shot! Love the content guys as always. You helped me decide to get my JLUR, and your videos help me constantly want to upgrade it. =P
Awesome set up I hope it works better for your needs. Let’s know how it compares to the previous lift.
While we're typically not into tall lifts, the JL has a 2" longer wheel base and I swear, we could feel it on the rocks. What the extra lift does is help to restore our break over angles and while there is a center of gravity penalty, I think it was worth it. Ride quality is surprisingly nice too especially being that this is more of a budget lift than anything.
Nice jeep
Thanks 👍
A set of half doors would look crazy good on that rig. Such a nice stance too.
I wish! We would have ordered our JL with half doors if they were available.
@@wayalife JCR offroad has a set that looks good if you color match. You can add a arm rest and such but it's still just a flat metal door with linkages. It just isn't the same as a good old factory half door. Keep up the good work
Yeah, I saw them at SEMA and they looked nice but I'm not really a fan of JCR. Having dealt with them in the past, they seemed to be totally full of themselves. I'd rather take my business elsewhere.
@@wayalife I kind of know what you mean. I have an 18 JLU Rubicon and I've built all my previous jeeps. I live in Illinois and contacted them to see if they'd install my lift and I'd travel to them to do so. And they said No! I was taken off guard. So...I get it
Making it harder and harder to wait for next spring to get a JL! After running the JLX and the NY19 run how are you guys liking the shocks?
LOL!! I've always liked RS9000's being that they're adjustable and that you can set them to where you want. If there is a downside, it's that what's nice for off road isn't always stellar for pavement and having to adjust them all the time can be a pain. This is why I choose a setting somewhere in between so that I can leave it as is.
Good job~!!
Thank you :)
Looks nice
Thank you :)
Any reason you went with rancho shocks over the fox shocks? or was it just a length thing?
The Rancho RS9000XL shocks are new and were made specifically for the coils we installed. I should note that they are longer as well.
Been watching your videos for awhile now and I’m curious what cordless ratchet you’re using and what you have thought of it over the time you have been using it?
Otherwise another great video! Felt bad when you had to find out the front spring was to big. And the 40’s comment lol.
The springs settled out. This is the ratchet I use. amzn.to/2TzLlMz and I have other tools listed in the description. Works great for my needs.
Hi Eddie, this video of the suspension upgrade was made in preparation for the 2018 SEMA show and JLX experience right?
This is correct. We've been meaning to finish up this video for a while now. We apologize for just getting it up now.
Wayalife Thank you for the reply. I hope there will be another JLX this year!!!
There will be a JLX but I'm not sure we'll be attending it. The cost for us to participate is literally a small fortune and depending on where it will take place, it'll cost us even more.
Please turn your shock bolts the other way or trim them on the rear ......Great video as always
Not sure why. Doing so would leave the threads exposed to the rocks and once they're beat up, they're hard to remove the nuts. I've not had a problem doing it this way but clearly, you should install your bolts on your Jeep however you see fit :)
I guess the 11 people who disliked this video did so because of the Trump Pence sign. lol. In all seriousness though, your Jeep is awesome. I subscribed to your channel after seeing the video of your "roof rack" for your hard top. Awesome job done for under $30. Keep up the great work!!
LOL!! Honestly, I'm kinda surprised your post made it through the TH-cam filters. There was another guy who made a post about the poster in question and TH-cam relegated it to my spam folder. Glad to hear our videos have been able to help you out. In spite of what TH-cam seems to think, that's all we hope to do - HELP others help themselves.
Really looking nice guys I love the white JL, your other rigs, shop and your videos. All top notch. Quick question; So with the 37's and maybe 40's in the future are the axles going to get worked over any time soon?
Well, we've already installed a Dynatrac ProRock 44 and you'll see a videos highlighting it as soon as tomorrow. 40's may have to wait a bit but only because we'll be getting a Gladiator :)
@@wayalife Oh ok did not notice that. Wow a Gladiator great for you guys, I can't wait to see what you have planned for that bad boy.
What video did you install the rear shock skids and do i really need them?
They're not really needed.
Saw you were using the LOD sliders at the end of the video. How are they holding up?
Holding up great :)
Curious Why do you use extension brackets for the brake lines rather then getting longer brake lines? Steve
Ummm, they're a fraction of the cost and something I already had and worked just as well for this application? Nothing wrong with installing longer brake lines and I have on all my other JK's but only when needed. Also, to properly bleed the lines on a JL, you need to have a scan tool use the ABS system to do it. That's typically something only your dealership can do and that makes it even more expensive to do. Sure, you can get by without it but your brakes will never be quite the same.
@wayalife what do you do with the lifts you remove? Have some for sale by any chance? 🤔
Sorry, we send back the parts we test to the manufacturer so that they can do more R&D.
I know these shocks were tuned for those springs, but if one wanted to get away from the old school hydro style shock, and get into a monotube, do you have any recs of one that would match well with these Rancho progressive springs?
Well, you could always order up a set of Kings and have them custom valved to how you'd like. Otherwise, you're kind of stuck with getting whatever it available off the shelf.
How are you liking the rancho shocks? Love my Rs9000xl's
Actually, we like them a lot. Great bang for the buck
OK another question. What front bumper do you have i like it also. Thank You for your time.
In this video, an LoD Destroyer Shorty
Would you say upgrade the front driveshaft AND rear? Or unnecessary? I have the 2018 JLU sport
On this particular lift giving you as much lift as it does, I would say that it's necessary to install front and rear shafts. The front being that the CV boot on the factory shaft will be in a constant state of bind and will fail sooner than later and on the rear, an aftermarket shaft will be narrower in diameter and will help prevent rubbing on the gas tank skid at a full flex.
Hi, just wondering if the lift kits are the same for LEFT HAND DRIVE car and RIGHT HAND DRIVE car. ? I know in USA is LEFT HAND DRIVE car.
It is "possible" that they're different. At least, I'm pretty sure that the OE coils are.
The install videos on the 2" lifts are all great - but I don't see any driving feedback. Can you do a compare / contrast / recommend video - or do they all test out about the same?
We have installed and tested multiple 2"-2.5" lifts and made videos of them. In fact, I have links for a few in the description. This one is on the taller side of things.
What size tire are you running on those stock rubicon wheels?
What you see in this video is not stock Rubicon wheels.
No drilling or trimming or cut for this rancho 3.5 lift kit and don't need anything right?
No drilling or cutting is needed to clear 37" tires.
When did you change out the Rancho shocks for FOX shocks and why. There is no video of that. Which Fox did you buy?
The Fox shocks came with the Dynatrac lift we were testing out before. They were specifically made for the coils in that kit. This lift is significantly taller - more than twice as tall and the shocks we're now running were made for them. Hence, why they're called long travel shocks.
I gotta fabtech 3.5 lift what’s your thought on fabtech? I have a 2018 jl rubicon also
LOL!! Being that you already have the lift, I would hope that you're happy with it and really, that should be the only thing that matters :)
How tall is jeep now? My friend has same jeep and just ordered that same lift, tires and rims you guys have. Worried about parking garage for work.
Well, we can still park in our garage which has a standard 7 foot header.
do you like the hard or soft top more? Great lift
In the past, we've always preferred a soft top being that they were so much easier to remove. This was nice in far away destinations like Moab. However, the JL soft top is just as heavy and maybe even harder to remove and so now, we kind of like the hard top.
When should you use Loctite? I would have figured you'd be using it for all those bolts that you'd expect to stay tightened? I guess not necessary?
You should use it on bolts and nuts that require it. Typically, manufacturers will tell you what needs it and what type to use.
Now that you've had the Rancho for 4 years, would you buy it again? Is it maintenance free? Do you recommend any maintenance free kits? Does Clayton or MetalCloak make one?
So, in this video, all you're not seeing the complete kit getting installed being that I already had EVO arms and components. This is the video you should be looking at th-cam.com/video/7EzDf1K_yOk/w-d-xo.html
And, it is maintenance free. Very happy with it.
How many times have you swapped out his suspension. Didn’t you install EVO Coil overs a few months ago.
LOL - quite a few times but this is an older video. The coilovers you are referring to were just installed a couple of weeks ago.
I know ride is subjective but how would you compare all the different systems you have ran so far?
So, what I can tell you is that the coils Rancho uses are progressive and so the ride they provide for daily driving is quite nice or at least, for our taste. Of course, most of ride quality will come from your coils. The Rancho RS9000XL are adjustable and so you can set them to whatever it is you like. With that said, both this and their Sport lift are probably one of the best riding kits we've tested for daily driving. Off road, they both do great as well but a progressive rate coil will resist stuff at full articulation in a way a linear coil will not. Also, a monotube shock will not experience shock fade the way a hydo shock will. For the cost, I find both of these kits to be a good value.
Do have to regear the wrangler rubicon to fit 37s or 40s?
"Have to?" No. But if you don't, your Jeep will feel under powered and you will effectively lose 7th and 8th gear. With 37's, I would recommend 5.13 to bring your Jeep to about stock performance with a bit more power. With 40's, I would recommend a new set of 1-ton axles with 5.38's or at least, if you plan on wheeling your Jeep.
I am just curious where i may find the torque specs like you know them?
Please check the description on this video, I have a link to factory torque specs listed in it.
Great video. Are the Rancho shocks better than the Fox shocks you took off, I thought Fox was top of the line & the way to go? I'm new to the lifting jeep scene so my question is for my knowledge & for future reference when I'm looking for lift kits. Thanks
Fox are great shocks that look good and have brand that's been promoted well. In terms of design, they are a modern monotube shock and perform well. If that's all that matters to you, yeah, they're better. Now, if you're asking in terms of flex, well, these new RS9000XL shocks provide more travel and so in that way, they're better. In terms of ride quality, well, these RS9000XL are adjustable and can be set to however soft or firm as you want. The Fox are gas charged and offer only one setting and depending on what coils you have them paired up with, that can give you a nice or harsh ride. In terms of price, the RS9000XL are way more affordable. For daily driving, I would argue that the RS9000XL will give most people what they want except for a sexy name and look. Even on the rocks, they'll do well if not better due to their long travel. Where Fox will out shine them is if they're paired with a good set of coils as there will be no need for adjustments. Also, driving over long stretches of rough terrain, they won't experience shock fade the way old school hydro shocks (RS9000XL) will and this is because they are monotubes that dissipate heat better and have a separate chamber filled with gas to help prevent cavitation. So, it's all relative.
@@wayalife Thanks for the quick reply
Very Nice! Do you still work on/upgrade your JK? You make videos anymore?
Oh yeah, we work on our JK all the time but more for maintenance than anything. Not sure what more we would upgrade.
What's the tallest point of the jeep now and is it still able to fit in a standard hight garage.
With the hard top on, I think we're seeing something like 78" and it fits no problem in our garage with a standard 7' header. With the soft top on, the highest bow is something like 82" and so it's close but it still fits.
Do you still think it is too high when you drive it? or maybe 3 " would be better? Is the rear track bar relocation bracket a must have for 3.5?
Not for a set of 37's and I should note that over time, it settled down to a more true 3"-3.5" lift. Also, yes, I would say that a relocation bracket is a must at this height.
@@wayalife Thx, you got a subscriber!! Cheers :)
Why is there a left/right difference? I've never heard of this before. I wonder if the same thing is done to Jeep TJ lift kits.
I was not done on the TJ nor on the JK. It's new to the JL and that's how they come from the factory and to help compensate for the weight of the gas tank being on the passenger side. It's actually kind of annoying being that you end up with a driver side lean instead.
Will this system work for the 2019. Can’t seem to find. Thanks Eddie
Yes.
On your link its saying this kit is unavailable. Ive been looking online and theres like 2-3 3.5" lift, can u link me to the right kit, and will this work for 2018 rubi. What net lift will i see plus i dont have frnt and rear track bars or long arms so if this kit can still fit without me getting the track bars yeg i mag be pulling the trigger on a kit. Tia
This is the part number you'd want for what you see in this video RS66125B www.gorancho.com/products/suspension-systems/jeep-suspension-systems/2020-2018-jeep-wrangler-jl-unlimited-non-rubicon-4wd-4-5-in-crawler-short-arm-suspension-system-rs66125b.html
@@wayalife thank you 🙏
Eddie I must say you're awesome man. I wish I had your knowledge. I do work on my jeep, but never chanced it on my suspension. I have a question, I have a 2008 jeep wrangler unlimited sahara with a 6 1/2" BDS long arm with Tom woods front & rear shafts,. Is it possible I can drop it to 3 1/2" long arm no more than 4 1/2". Having many problems with my lower back I guess comes with age lol, it's making it a little uncomfortable getting in & out sometimes. Thank you sir for this awesome video as well.
Holy cow, 6-1/2"?? That's way more lift than I would ever hope to run on any of my Jeeps. Hell, even my JK running 40's is doing it with our coil overs set to about 3-1/2". Needless to say, yeah, depending on what size tires you have, I would install shorter coils but you will most likely need shorter shocks and depending on how much slip you have in your drive shafts, you may need to have them lengthened.
@@wayalife Thank you so much. Well in 2009 I wanted a lift & bigger tires cause I wanted to experience of a new offroading adventure, it was my first jeep, took it to a shop where they convinced me that this will be it, but as years went by I learned more & more about the jeep & the game, watching videos, & then came to conclusion that I do not need this so high to have fun, invested needless of thousands throwing work at it & here I am now hoping to get something like your set up. I ran 40's on 20 wheels with 513 gears & e-locker with stronger axle sleeves, blew my rear 2 times, now I'm running 37s on 17 which turned out better but now hoping on lowering this big boy to a 3 1/2". Only if I knew then what I know now. I can't get rid of my jeep, it's my 2nd wife lol. Thank you so much for your advice & always love your videos man.
wow you're right that is almost too tall but i love it!
It's definitely on the tall side but with the JL having a 2" longer wheel base, it's kind of nice to have if only to regain lost break over angles. There is a penalty in center of gravity with it though.
Hello, i have a 2019 jl rubicon and getting ready to buy the rancho 3.5 short arm kit. Any feedback on how you like yours thus fare. Was looking at the rough country also but wasnt sure how they compared thanks
Honestly, I've felt this is one of these best lift kits I've tested so far and especially for it being in this price range. I can't say that I've ever been a fan of Rough Country and this is based on testing their products in the past.
@@wayalife Thanks i just purchased 3.5 for my JL this week. Appreciate it.
Hey eddie where did you get the Battle Borm flag you have hanging up??
Bought it from a local flag shop
@@wayalife that was my national guard brigade. We are out of AZ and Nevada. Just caught the eye!!
