I have learned so much from this guy! He actually gave me the confidence to install my own lift and not pay a shop to do it. I just wish I had his budget. :-)

Dude the fact that you do these videos by yourself and have such good production quality is damn amazing.

Gave the Metalcloak a try from your review here. The only company I have purchased something from that called me and thanked me for my order and gave me a number to call for questions! Great service and great parts for sure! Thanks for everything you do here at AutoEdits.

I've went back and watched every single one of your JKU videos and you've helped me make the decision that this summer I will be buying a JKU. Awesome project 👌👌.

glad to see you uploading again // love your jeep vids

Hats off to your filming ability-people don't realize how much effort that took!

I must have watched your lift install video a dozen times before installing my MC 3.5 TDR. Now I've picked up the steering components and will be watching this video a few more times. Love your videos! Thanks for posting.

I just finished upgrading the steering linkage on my JT. Teraflex tie rod, drag link and steering stabilizer relocation bracket. I've learned so much about wrenching from you channel, THANK YOU!!!

The whole series is great. I just bought the Jeep Wrangler. Your work is a great inspiration to me. Greetings from Poland.

Just installed mine today, thanks for the video. I watched it several times while installing mine.

Another awesome upgrade and some great ideas. Keep us updated on how well they hold up.

Autoedit, Its at this point you’ve sold me on Metalcloak products.. excellent quality! Thanks for the informative videos, they’ve been a great help for me.

Thanks for the great video. I hadn't planned on ordering anything from MetalCloak during their black friday sale, but this video sent me over the edge. Tie rod, drag link, and steering stabilizer just got ordered. I was just in your neck of the woods for Thanksgiving visiting family. I broke away on Sat morning and checked out DrinkWater Flats OHV by myself. It was cool. The 1st climb up the mountain from the road was a little intimidating, but my JKU did fine. Keep up the great video installs.

Completed this build thanks to you over the weekend. It is such a great upgrade. Took me a some time to install with removal of the worn out gear. Fork tool was a blessing. Instant difference with very smooth steering. Used your advise with looking down the outside of the wheel to temporarily align the front and it worked out great. My 2010 Rubicon JKU and I are super happy.

Awesome quality video for just a guy in his driveway!

I bought a used 07 JK X a little over a year ago and remember watching this video and looking at the price for this kit and thinking “jeez that’s pricey, I’ll never be there!” But here I am already ordered the track bar and about to order this kit myself! All MC’d out and working on suspension before I move on to my UD install. Love the channel and as the time passes I still find myself watching these videos for the info and just for the fun of it!

Your Jeep build has been the inspiration for mine. So far I am running the MetalCloak 3.5” Game Changer (I did opt for the RockSport shocks), MetalCloak Overland fenders in aluminum, and 37” Toyos wrapped around Method Racing bead locks. I just added this steering upgrade to my MetalCloak wishlist. They need to thank you for the business!! I really need you to slow down so I can keep up with your build! HAHA I would love to wheel with you one day Jason, keep up with the amazing build and videos!

Great video as always. Nice upgrade. And those tie rods are that lose straight out of the factory. But agree you do need to upgrade those parts with all the other upgrades like your doing. Just didn’t want someone with stock jeep worried about their tie rod. Glade to see another video from you. Hoping to see some trail to sema videos from you. That trip looked awesome.

I love these videos. keep it up! I dream to have my JKU upgraded like yours!

Was recomended metalcloak kit and did the install based off your video. man it is such a difference and worth it!

yoo i love your jeep and your vids! i hope you can upload more often!

Hey Jason, thanks for the inspiration to upgrade my steering components. I was at 59,000 miles and starting to get a little wobble from the steering wheel. After checking things out I found my tie rod ball joints were worn. I did order the metalcloak steering components rocksport edition. It all went in as easy as you showed on your video. The only thing I ran into was that I couldn’t properly center my steering wheel. The alignment shop dialed it all in. I really like the way the steering feels, and no shaking steering wheel. Couldn’t send you a picture. Otherwise I would. I’m driving a 2013 manual JKUR with a 2.5” Teraflex spring lift, a Teraflex monster track bar, Rancho 9000 adjustable shocks, and 35” B.F. Goodrich KO2 All Terrains. Can’t wait to get my rig in the dirt to see how that feels as well.

Excellent procrastination timing! College can wait!!!!! :-)

Love the videos! I'm VERY excited to hear Large Marge fire up.

Great video! Just ordered this for my Jeep. I have the MetalCloak front bumper and love it but the EVO Quarter Pounder was awfully tempting.

Great vid , i had no idea the changing of ball joints so easy on the wrangler.

Thanks for the video. Got this setup because of you!

Great video. Looks like good products. We went with Steer Smarts 1.5 Ton Top Mount no Drill Draglink and Tie Rod. Made a world of difference on 37’s.

Great video, even with my smaller tires I noticed something similar while wheeling hard. Thanks for the review.

Just did this Metalcloak tie rod and drag link install, along with a FOX ATS steering stabilizer. This video made it so straightforward Jason! Pickle fork separator didn’t work for me and I didn’t have the tool you used. Pitman arm separators I saw were too big for the space under the Wrangler. The one thing that did work easily for me was a 3/4 in. Ball Joint Separator I picked up from Harbor Freight. Off in less than a minute!

Good stuff Jason!

Nice job. I’m waiting to finish up my heavy duty steering with the Synergy Tie Rod. Already got the Drag link installed. You make far better jeep videos than me that’s for sure. Haha.

I did the something with the same parts to my '53 Willys and Iove how she responds off road.

Thanks for teaching me how to remember a tie rod and a drag link!

Love it Jason been looking to upgrade my steering thanks for the great how to. Keep it up man

Awesome video!!! I love your clear explanations. This makes sense!

Exactly what I have been searching for. And install instructions. Thanks.

You are very smart jeep and suspension, steering genius

Hi Jason, awesome video as usual! Thank you.

Thanks for sharing... the shots are awesome

Hey Jason, thanks again for another great video. When I watch your videos, it's like I'm in school learning all things Jeep. As far as steering components, Have you ever dealt with bump steer or DW on your rig?

Went back to watch this...seems pretty sought forward upgrade! I might try this one some day

Excellent as always... love your vids

Wow that was simple, I'm not a mechanic and I think I can do that. Thanks man

I have a Metalcloak Game Changer 3.5" mid-arm suspension with 35s. Great video. I think I might be investing in this kit at some point.

Great video like always

Glad to see you uploading man! Happy thanksgiving brotha!

Now that you’ve made more clearance, time for some bulletproof Ruffstuff diff covers! I can’t wait to see the bumper! Hopefully it’s another Metalcloak product! 😉

Great video. Cheers from Sweden

I love that you likely use the same editing software or at least music as the editors for roadkill, DED and so on. Feels like home XD

Big big thanks for explaining everything very clearly. I don`t have Jeep but I enjoy your episodes and shop dog PINTO !!!! :)

Love your videos man!

Hey Jason, great video, as always. Wanted to know if you could make one on brake pedal rattle fix/upgrade. Lot of jeepers have that minor inconvenience where the brake pedal rattles/shakes when riding over bumps and your foot is not touching it. Thanks

Hey Jason another great video. Wondering if you are running stock gearing still and what are your thoughts at this point on that. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving. Jeep looks beast love it. Hey Pinto!

Hey Jason, great informative vid! I'm pretty new to the Jeep world and recently purchased Jeep Wrangler Sport JKU and looking to get a 3" inch lift with 33" tires. When driving on the highway I have been noticing some slight bump steer, would you recommend this upgrade to fix this issue? Let me know, thanks!!

Thanks for the video Jason. That's a solid upgrade. Metal Cloak makes great products. I went with the Currie CorrectLynk HD Steering kit on my TJ. What a world of difference between that a stock. Did Metal Cloak recommend that Steering Stabilizer or was that something else you researched and decided on? Excellent video production! Keep them coming.

Really nice job :)

Very good!! I really like your videos. Greetings from Spain!! Muy bueno!! Me gustan mucho tus vídeos. Saludos desde España! !

Great Video! I have a 2016 JK sport, 35 BFG, 3in Teraflex lift kit. I have what seems like a dead spot in my steering near center... you have to work the steering wheel left to right to maintain a sorta straight line. It drifts around on the streets a lot. Do you think the Metal Cloak Tie rod and drag link kit would solve that? Thanks

Great video!

Did you add any grease to the boots through the zerk fitting? I ordered some Steer Smarts Yeti tie rod and drag link and they suggested that on their install. I like the install videos. Thanks!

4.37 just draw on your hand a map how all parts go back together. Lol. Nice video. Thanks for posting.

Great video!!! So you mentioned you're running 37's on your jeep. Have you changed your differentials gears or still running stocks? If you're still stock, how's that working out? Any problem with power starting, acceleration on the road or on climbing hiills or rocks

Your Jeep has come a long way...how cool. I heard you say Moab,and I'll go with you next time, if thats cool. Im in SCV SO lets figure out where to meet and greet.

I love Metalcloak! They are only an hour away from me now, and I'm not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing yet.

Hey Jason love the videos sir. Just lifted my Jeep and ordered the Tera flex kit just because I was able to get it a bit cheaper. But I was wondering your opinion on drop pitman arms. I get a ton of mixed opinions on them. Any advice would help. I also just installed those Tom Woods driveshafts you have in another video and man do they make a world of difference.

Another great vid Jason. Thanks! Scott ever recommend High steer drag and roll center raised trackbar bracket? Seems a lot of manufactures and forum posts make it sound like you need it to prevent bump steer and body roll with lifts 3 inches and up. You haven't had any issues?

Hi great videos as always , are u still running the stock gears?

Hey Jason great videos,greetings from Puerto Rico, i just got my MetalCloak rocksport steering kit, did you grease the tie rods ends before run it?

Great video

Enjoy your videos

Hi did on the drag link where the ends different threadlike the tie rod or the same

Amazing nephew!! I wish you were neighbor! I dont trust these mechanics in my area lol

Another good vid! Dude where do you live in California? I am so jealous lol

@autoedit what kind of grease did u use anything special? awesome vid as always keep it up 👍🏽👍🏽

Nice video and upgrade info .. Since you are doing a lot of off roading are you going to do any upgrade to your hood to improve the ventilation / airflow to cool your engine ?

Awesome as always my man! Question: what are you using as your phone mount? Noticed it in the interior shot...been looking for something in that position. Thx

Great Video! What is the added weight if any?

Now that you’ve had this kit for sometime how have you like it?? Im looking into this tie rod kit

Awesome video man! I love my MC products on my 2014 JKU Rubicon X. One thing unrelated. Get some Fluid Film and start drenching the underside of your jeep, the frame, inside the frame, everywhere, etc, with it every month or so. It'll keep it from rusting. It attracts, dirt and sand, but who cares. That stuff is easily rinsed off when you need to, and it's the underside of a Jeep, so again....who cares. Rather have dirt than rust. You take very good care of your Jeep, and even with that care, it's still rusting. (Damn Jeeps). The Fluid Film will keep it from doing that for a long long time if you stay on top of it. Take care dude!

Nice work

Hey what was the length of your tie rod bar I'm doing mine right now and I forgot to measure

The factory tie rod ends are just junk. I think I went through 3 sets of each in my old JK. Its nice to see somebody has made some good HD ones, as very few company offer anything.

Are you still running stock ball joints? Awesome vid as usual.

Great Video!, Hey Jason, Do you have any noise from the 6sp in 3-4th gear that sounds like marbles in a coffee can?.. I do, good thing I have the lifetime warranty.........Maybe

You should check out hi steer where the drag link attaches above the knuckle apparently it gives better handling. The only downside is you just got a new draglink

Great video. Did you have any of that Death Wobble before or after installing the lift kit and now the steering upgrade.

What method do you use to jack the front end up using 1 floor jack? I have to credit you with almost all of my knowledge about jeep mechanics. Love your videos

will your bumper fit a TJ? Im looking to change mine if it will and your selling.

Did you notice any difference in steering wheel feel when upgrading?

You're changing the bumper again? I like the current one though. Have you ever had that "Death Wobble" issue with your jeep?

Hi I appreciate your videos I have a stock 2016 and want to do it right the first time .. what gears do you have with the 37” tires Thank you

Nice steering upgrade and I’m looking forward to seeing your bumper upgrade. Will you be installing a winch as well I don’t remember if you have one or not? Again thanks for sharing until next time.

@AutoEdits Jason, Looking at a 2016 bone stock rubicon 4d 3.6 liter auto 5sp Death wobble & Oil pump problems are my biggest concerns. Before I jump in, any suggestions? You have an Auto 5sp vs manual 6sp recommendation? Excellent content!!!

Subscribed 👍🏽

The rotation you noted in the tie isn't a good indicator of tie rod end (not a ball joint, they are in the end of the axle where the knuckles attach) wear. Instead lateral movement and up/down play are a better indicator. Definitely look like stout replacements and I like the double adjustment for wheel alignment.

Tie rod ends, not ball joints. Although technically they are a type of a ball joint. If you call a parts store for ball joints that's not what your going to get.

Great video! Ordering this steering kit now. Kind of a newby lol, the site as an option for standard or billet , can you educate me a little

Great Video! One question.. Why No Drag Link Flip Kit?

Good content as always!! Keep it up!! Did you recently install a CB radio in your rig??
