For the amount of years that I've been working on vehicles I just noticed something that should have been noticed. I was always using a breaker bar to compress the coil but you got it right by using the jack and compressing it that way. Good job and great video. I just got my 3-in lift and I'll be doing the same this week

This wasn’t only a good informational video but your camera angles made it even easier. Thanks man.

I bought a budget boost kit from JGCParts for my 04 Cherokee... 2.5"front and 2"rear. Their instructions really did not go into detail. Your video saved me $$ from having to take my Jeep into an auto shop to get mine installed. I also installed new shocks so the job took me a few hours. Thank you for posting this video, it was really really helpful. positioning of the spring compressors is key, i rented mine from my local auto store. Thanks again.

Thank you for the videos, great help! The hardest part was with the spring compressors. I had to cut mine shorter and buy another pair for compressing the springs more to be able to reinstall them with the BB lift things on.

Bro, Extremely informative on the size=brand of tire and the difference shown with and with out. I just bought a 99 and I am realizing everything you can do, so far I'm Impressed! Good video my dude.

thank you for the first! I just got done with my wj today and it works amazing. bravo.

Great video you make it looks easy.

I see you put Nylon the spacers on the bottom, Rough country shows putting them on the top, so which way is right ?

Nice video work. Looks good! I have the same size tires on my stock height 04 @ they rub the wheel well on tight parking lot turns. 2 inch looks like it worked out prefect. Thanks four the video. I'm sold.

Thing looks great!

Hey Bud, Awesome Video. Helped me out a bunch.. Did a 3 in lift on my 2000 Grand Cherokee yesterday.. your video made it a breeze... Spring compressor tool, Little scary but all good.. Thanks.

Good vid.. Very helpful... Mike in LA, Calif

You placed the spacers on the bottom of the springs but rusty's website says they ride at the TOP of the springs. Did you do this for any particular reason? This kit is simply a set of 4 spacers positioned on top of the factory coil springs. Since the factory coils are retained, you can be sure this kit has no negative effects on the excellent factory ride characteristics! No bump stops are needed; we have found that they may limit travel more than needed unless you use a significantly larger tire. We recommend a maximum 245 size tire for this kit. The factory shock absorbers are long enough to work with this kit, however we recommend replacing them with Rusty's Hydro Performance Shocks for an better ride and for proper extension travel when the vehicle is used off-road.

thanks bro just got into jeeps had a yota 4runner on toyo 33s

so touching for an excellent video

Look forward to them.

Great Video!!! How are those tires on the road? I wont be doing a lot of mud but LOVE the looks of it... are they making noise? you inspired me to do the same on my 04 WJ, after I got an offer for 600$(!!) my WJ has the same color, think Im gonna paint the rims matt black after the process is done :))

thanks for doing this video..I just got a 2002 WJ with low mileage and wanted a little lift for trails but not super crazy..so the budget boost kit has everything but spring compressors right?..let me know when you can as I'm saving up to get it

very helpful, thank you!

Thanks for the informative video. Jeep looks nice. I am going to put mine in tomorrow.

I put the spacers on my jeep but the the turn too jumper y recomend instal lift coil springs

In my experience, the front shock's bottom bolts are 13mm, not 15mm. The top bolt is 15mm.

Exelent video !!!!!!!!

That’s sick.

oh you should have wood blocks or similar between frame and jack stands :-)

Nice vid you made it look so easy,

OneTimeN BandCamp Theoretically it should not matter if its on the top or bottom. It drives like stock and 4wheels even better.

What's the tire size you're running on that? Thanks

Caralho meu , tava querendo saber dessa parte e vem outra ligua 😉

how long does this whole process take for 1 tire? Is it the same process for the back?

Is buying 4 coil springs and shocks much better than 4-plastic insertion and new shocks? I need help, the price difference is 500 eur.

I'm about to put a 3inch kit on my 02 Laredo here soon

Thanks, vid helped me out a lot doing my lift. Is your WJ an Upcountry? After my lift it was only 34".

Tanks fore the info..i like

Sorry,car is a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4.7 4x4 petrol r/h drive

instead of lowering it and then jacking it back up with the coil compresser, Why didn't you just put the compressor on then lower it and take the shock out?

Hey did they rub before the lift?

What size where the tires on your jeep?

Also, should totally replace the shocks if you plan to actually wheel it. If it's simply a road queen then...I'd still replace the shocks to make up the difference, just the right way of doing it. Not hating, just saying. I have a 99 with a iron rock off road 3 inch and a 00 with a 2" puck lift but on both the shocks have also been changed

I'm looking to do the same to my jeep and i have some questions for ya. 1.Did you have replace other parts like brake lines or sway bars? 2.How are the coil spaces working out for you/ have you had any trouble with them. 3.Did you get exactly 2" of lift? more or less? And does you'r jeep sit even after lift was installed. sorry for so many question. great video by the way!

Correct me on this, but the coil compressor was not necessary in this case?

is this a safe lift? will it work on a zj?

I need to change the shocks?

Muchas gracias KZfaq ,x esté detalle yo kiero Acer mi Jeep Cherokee

How do you put the back on

Do the rears go on top or bottom of the spring?

I have a few questions if I run 245/75/16 on my jeep wj will I rub if I put a 2.5 lift just on the front ?? Please comment back

Neato! Now, what are "jounce bumpers" and where are they installed? Came across this term just today, and wondering if they help with bottoming out issues.

I want to put a similar 2" budget lift on my ZJ but I've been warned that it will steer funny without adding adjustable control arms on. Did you have any unstable steering issues after this?

Y didn’t you show doing the rear end good video but was hoping to see how the back end was done

nice Jeep lifting video!!! Didn't forget to tight lug nuts with torque wrench for at least 110 power.

Hey did you need to get an alignment done after the lift was installed?

Nice video, but that little stand slip at 1:23 could have gotten ugly. Always check your stands and watch them as the weight is being applied to them.

One question: Is the shock absorber the same as the original one or did you change it for a longer one?

was wondering I have a 94 jeep grand Cherokee and was thinking about doing the same thing you don't need ant extent ions for the brake lines or drive line do you? and what about a 3" would I need anything else besides the spacers?

Hi me again was wandering did you blow out ur shocks or did you have to change them to after market like 0-2'' in shocks? or did you stick with origanal shocks and do they work good anough? with out changing them? just wandering due to I havve ordered the 2'' lift kits ya told me about and was wandering if I need to change my shocks or NO? thanks again

Shouldn't the puck be on top?

Has your lift kit and suspension held up to the test of time and usage?⏳

Could've saved a step by simply compressing the spring in the first place before putting the compressors on. Instead of lowering it, putting compressors on then jacking it up again to compress the spring.

How do you install the blocks in the rear suspension

Nice job but the spacers are supposed to go on the top of the coil front and rear. Spacer against perch, then insulator and then the coil. like you did but on top not the bottom.

Do you have cv or u joints? Asking cuz was about to buy rough country 2 inch lift comes with shocks too but in the website says not to use with awd they told me i would have to change my cv axels with u joint axels wondering if u had any problems

So I see you put the front spacers on the bottom. For skyjacker (same spacers) they detail you needing to put the front spacer on the top. Have you changed this or had any issues?

When you put the spacers in do you need to get new gas shocks or are the stock ones long enough already.?

Do you think i'll be okay with 3" inch spacers ? Thanks

Mine is a Supreme suspension, basically the same thing. Why did you cut the rubber nipple off the isolator?

Having trouble with the front end. Replaced cv;s and ball joints,no change. Car groans when turning and feels like it sort of slips or moves over a bit when turning There is no play in wheels or steering and does not vibrate.Any help? Thanks John

Front spacers go on top, rears go on bottom.

Where did you find these tires? I have some oooooooooold ones. I thought they were discontinued and obsolete.

pls whts ur tire size thanks

When I lift my Jeep with those spacers the jeep star doing death wooble

After lifting 2 inches my JGC WJ developed a death wobble. No problem with yours?

Did you have any rub running that size before the lift?

Do you recommend spacers on the bottom of the spring or the top?

does it matter if the spacer goes on top or bottom

Why didn't you put the compressor on before you lowered it

Will this kit work for the awd version?

can i get this kit in the UK and do you need to change anything else

Would this also be the same procedure for a 2004 cherokee lerado?

what size are you tires?

Good way to take the wheels off. Fuck alternating sides, just do it in order.

Hi,do you have a kicking in schoks when you ride a offroad?

on speed society the best automotive site on the web there survey said most 96% of people don't go mudding when they get MT Mudd terrain tires. so no going where the tire is intended to you loss,traction and performance everyday. for everyone one who just like the side bite tire look. buy A/T tires there cheaper and can performance on street

Who is your kit made by?

Dear friend, I liked the video, I live in Brazil, I have a 2001 laredo too, I'll see if fasso a kit for me. Here we do not have these parts, it is difficult to buy. hug

Is this the same how it would be on a 2000 jeep xj grand cherokee?

Great video man. I was confused about the coil compressor part though, what was the purpose of that and is it completely necessary? I don't have those specifically would be possible to use any sort of strong clamp??

Did you have to align the wheels after?

I started getting a horrible death wobble after lifting 2 inch. Any ideas?

bro. tire size?

amigo, me puede decir, porque, se va el aceite de mi carro, no liquea por ningún lado, pero se va, es un jeep grand cherokee del 2000, 6 cilindros, laredo. gracias

could you fit 33s after putting the 2 inch lift?

How come you got more lift than me i my buddy and i both have wj jeeps and we both purchased the same lift as u budget boost and neither one of us got the full 2.5 in front or 2" in rear we only got a little over 1" i contacted the conpany they said they had never herd of that .

So you don't have to buy a longer sway bar arm? So I could do this to my 2002 with no problem? ?

Did u keep the stock shocks

In your video for the front and the back you decompress the spring, put the compressor on, then compress the spring all the way back down, that doesn't make any sense. You do the same thing when you're taking the compressor off. You ought to be installing the compressor at the springs most compressed state as well as uninstalling it at its most compressed state, it will save you a good amount of time and trouble.

Why not leave it jacked up before putting on the coil compressors then let the jack down? Seems like ALOT of extra work/time for no reason...

Did you touch it?

Did you have any trouble with death wobble after installing this lift and hitting a bump to cause death wobble if you did have this experience how did you fix it I finished my install 2 days ago I used your video to do so so thank you it made it a lot easier
