After a few suspension changes on my Jeep Wrangler, its time to take it out and see how it performs!
We recently moved the rear shocks flush with the axle tube and the rear control arms as well. Mike and I headed out to Crossbar Offroad Ranch here in Oklahoma to do some high speed offroad testing!
For those who missed the previous videos, we installed Barnes4WD JK Rear upper shock relocation brackets to raise the shocks up out of harms way. And then moved the lower control arms up with the OuttaHand Fab JK long arm brackets.
This gives us a huge ground clearance upgrade while also helping out with suspension geometry improvements. Between all of these upgrades, its time to see what the 392/6.4 can do in a well built offroad rig!
Lets hit the trails and put this V8 swapped, One ton, long arm Jeep JKU to the test!

How satisfied are you with the 392? Do you think more power is necessary for most people? It sounds like it’s kicking butt and not struggling at all.
@JKGearandGadgets
@JKGearandGadgets Жыл бұрын
I love it. A 5.7 would be enough for most. But also depends if your running heavy axles, 40s etc. A 5.7 could be ran on stock or built 44s. Whereas a 6.4 you’ll want to upgrade everything so you can actually use the power.
@JKGearandGadgets
@JKGearandGadgets Жыл бұрын
Are you asking if more power is needed than a 392? Hell no lol. Unless you just want to be flashy or like spending money. The 6.4 is way more than enough for any jeep owner realistically

Just curious if you have a manual transmission in that beast? I just got a Manual Sahara JKU that I will be modding. And I wanted to know what options I have with the drivetrain. I am pretty sure I found that the trans from certain years of the Cummins Ram 2500 will mate but I am just checking in.
