Today on JD Cars we’re lifting Andrew’s 2020 Jeep Gladiator! Rough Country offers a number of different lift kits for the Gladiator.
IMPORTANT NOTE: For Accurate Torque Specs Visit This Link - www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/fo... We opted for the coil spring lift kit that includes longer and beefier coil springs, instead of the slightly less expensive kit which uses coil spring spacers to achieve lift. This kit was a breeze to install and honestly provides a solid ride- especially for the price! Overall, no damages or complaints so far. We’ll be sure to keep you updated. Thanks for watching!

That's a fancy torque wrench!

This was my first lift kit on my 15 jku, great lift for the money although you definitely get what you pay for. Planning on upgrading to the 3.5in Metalcloak game changer lift with fox shocks for a better ride and articulation. Great vid though!

Can you please explain to me what they mean by putting the shock eye facing outside of the vehicle

@philliprollman7421 11 күн бұрын

Do you need or are you going to be putting on drop brackets?

@philliprollman7421 3 ай бұрын

Awesome video I'm getting a 3.5 lift from RC I think it's $2,300

@perezwoodworks562 2 жыл бұрын

Love your videos! Question: I’ve seen several videos of people putting 37’s on Gladiators not needing spacers. Was it because of the rim offset ?

@JDCarsChannel 2 жыл бұрын

Much appreciated! Yes, the spacers were needed because these wheels were previously on a Grand Cherokee SRT

How hard was it taking bolts out of the drive shaft? I see y’all have a half inch impact, was it still a pain or did it come out with ease?

@Harvdawg1981 Жыл бұрын

Did you have to replace the front drive shaft?

@NeonTuner524 Жыл бұрын

I just did the same lift kit with a RTT and bed rack in the back. Also, a custom built drawer setup that maybe weights 100lbs. If you slightly load the bend, do you notice a HARD pitch up on the front?

@JDCarsChannel Жыл бұрын

Awesome! Would love to see your drawer setup. The bed can handle a light load without a hard pitch up the front 👍

@themanthelegend7048 2 жыл бұрын

The drivers identified passenger side is because the side with the gas tank is a bit beefier to account for the weight. To you don't get tank lean.

Good to know!

@letterpool 3 жыл бұрын

I know you guys said its smooth but smooth for a lift? or smoother than stock or about the same?

@JDCarsChannel 3 жыл бұрын

Andrew knows better than I, but initially he said it was stiffer than stock. A couple weeks later and we realized it was just as smooth as stock after breaking in the shocks :)

@ernestordonez73 2 жыл бұрын

So basically i can fit a coil springs lift on a stock rubicon gladiator without changing the factory shocks or suspension?

@JDCarsChannel 2 жыл бұрын

Sort of kind of... you'll still want to swap the track bar and sway bar links

@nitroxide17 3 жыл бұрын

Ive never seen white components from RC. Cool video guys… I like the on screen socket key numbers pop up

@JDCarsChannel 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! We had these springs powdercoated locally. Glad the socket numbers are helpful!

Any issues not having longer control arms?, I’m considering this kit for my Jeep and am concerned about the caster.

@JDCarsChannel Жыл бұрын

No issues to report with the stock control arms!

@madknacker 2 жыл бұрын

Couldn’t you have used/purchased spring compressors and avoided taking apart almost everything around the suspension?

@JDCarsChannel 2 жыл бұрын

I suppose so, but you'll still need to swap out your sway bar links and track bar

@Aceinfinity-le8zc 2 жыл бұрын

Did you do anything to the control arms ?

@JDCarsChannel 2 жыл бұрын

Nope! Not on this installation. Though we might do a large arm kit down the road!

@JeepinNation 2 жыл бұрын

Hey man, if you still got the lift installed can you grab a measurement for me on the overall height of the vehicle. Ground to top of bed and ground to top of fender in the front. I would appreciate it
