@@Drewfastfx2 I'm not familiar with either of those options. I can tell you though that the RC 2.5 is more of a aesthetic vs. performance. Like the owner of this Jeep, I did it for my wife and she loves it. Came out great and rides like stock. I noticed a drop in mpg but nothing too bad. I also added a cargo roof rack to make it even a bit more beefier.

I have a 2014 GC Laredo that I also did the RC 2.5 lift/level. Another simple mod that I did was the RC hidden LED Light bar on the lower front behind the mesh. I live in NW Rural TN and let me tell you at night with all the animals on these roads i also installed the RC 8 Gang switch where I can have it at my finger tips to turn on/off light bar. its better then the high beams by far. Thinking about ditch lights as well.

I've lifted two WK2 Grand Cherokee's so far (see videos on my channel), I did a spacer lift first time around on the first one (2011) but no sooner did we install the spacers the struts blew, so I then did no spacer and added the Rough Country loaded struts. The second Grand Cherokeee was a 2013 WK2, I did the Rough Country loaded struts again in the front with two strut shims and JBA UCA's. Both Jeeps I installed Wrangler take off wheels and tires (32") with 1.5" wheel spacers.

Yes they look good I have the same set up on a 2015 but if you live in a place with snowy weather like Illinois , in the winter it’s a mess because the tire rotation on the rear pushes snow and salt through the rear passenger doors so that’s a spot you have to keep cleaning because of that, JFYI to new Jeep owners getting this set up

Hey Im looking at a very similar set up have you noticed any alignment issues or control arm/shock wear or anything that is causing you issues since you have lifted the vehicle and changed the geometry of the jeep? im worried of messing up my jeep tbh?

since you're lifted, what made you go 265 vs 275? i have a 17 trailhawk and i like the stock rims, debating 265/65/18 (31.6" like yours are) or 275/65/18 ( true 32" tire). i just don't want to destroy my finders if i off road hard.
@matthewstark9491
@matthewstark9491 4 жыл бұрын
I wanted to go 275, but it's not as common a size and was cheaper to go 265. Other part I was unsure of was whether I'd have to trim anything further with the 275, so just decided 265 to be safe.

I did look at both of those, none of them seemed like a bad option. I don't do a lot of off-roading, just needed something to change the look, so the RC was great value and serves the purpose I had for it.

It's all one kit. It lifts the front 2.5 inches and lifts the back 1, so it makes the vehicle sit level.

Were you able to properly align the vehicle after the kit? How´s the CV joints angle whith the lift? I know some suspension designs are more susceptible to lift kits than others.
@matthewstark9491
@matthewstark9491 5 жыл бұрын
After everything, yes, the vehicle was aligned and drives straight down the road. Haven't had issues so far. I wish I could send you a picture of the CV, but from the research I had done for the WK2, as long as you're not lifting the suspension more than 3-4 inches, nothing from the factory suspension should be affected. It's only been about 4 thousand miles since the lift, but no issues so far.
