ducking finally! I hate when people think it's the same thing when you buy the biggest tires and rims a stock jeep can support and rationalize not getting a lift
I have a 2016 jeep and I want to lift him and put bigger tires, but I just want to put the tires , no LEDs or change the chest and stuff, only the tires, do you know how much it costs ?
Just ordered my teraflex 2.5 inch lift. wanted 33's vs 35's since its my daily drive ...i think this looks great and if my math is correct should be exactly the same as the stock space from top of the wheel to fender (technically .5 higher)......my main question is...when ordering the tire is this a 285/70/17 or a 275/70/17?
hope yu dont end up havin a hard time with top front shock bolts.Did my 3.5 inch yesterday.Had to pretty much snap of the bolts to get the shocks out because of rust.Also get ready with a 15 or 16 mm to adjust the draglink over an over an over.The esp is kind of a bitch to get to go away right after lifting.
was that a full lift kit bro ? with springs and shocks ? or just spacers ? im thinking of adding 33 inch tires with 2.5 lift . i already got the fox shocks installed now i just need the springs and tires .
Hi great videos on jeeps. Have a 2016 Rubicon unlimited hard rock. Was thinking of putting 35" x 12 and a half tires, and also 4" lift. Do I need a lift or can I just put the 35" tires. Hope someone can help me out on this.
E N hey buddy. You need a lift with 35s. Minimum is 2.5 inches but you will experience some rubbing on tight corners. Anything over 3 inches is safe. 33s won't need any lifting on your jeep.
I would do the same u did.. 33s and lift later when I got bored Also I think the 33s look fine with your lift My friend has a 2.5 lift with 35s it looks awesome.. Bit he always mentions he's not a fan of how it drives
Hey man I'm bout to ask u weirded question does it really pays off to get extended warranty for jeep or if u have got the extended warranty bcz u have ur jeep for while or did u have any problem with jeep so far???
Hey good question. I have had mine since November 2015 and bought it brand new without extended warranty. No issues so far. They are generally good when you buy them brand new.
its prob gonna cost around 3 grand in total for everything.Lift,install,front end alignment,wheels and tires,procal or flashpac f5 scanner.Then yur alll done.
Thanks for your comment. If you are referring to me, then lets clear some stuff up. First off, if you have watched other videos, I have taken it on a dirt trail. Secondly, I live in Toronto, the closest rock or mud trail is about 3 hours from Toronto and if you have noticed on other videos, I have a family and two new born's so its very difficult with twins to get away. Please dont hate fellow jeepers, we are a family and a big community.
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler no hate brother, just stating my opinion. I love my jk, bought it specifically to go offroading. Iv got 6" full long arm kit on 37 nittos and spyderlocks. Full body armor from poison spyder and slight motor work.
Very nice jeep! good look!! where did you get your wheels and tires package in the GTA? i need to find a good place to purchase them for a good price. thanks, Matt
HEY !!! dude keep doing what your doing the jeep looks awesome , im looking to lift mine to 2.5 do you have the link on the one you got ,how does it drive with the 35s
First off thanks a lot. The lift was a budget lift from rough country. They were 2.5 inch spacers and not a suspension lift with springs and shocks and such. I don't have a link but you can check out roughcountry.com I believe. All the best
also your jeep will behave the exact same. you won't get any flex out of spacers. do a 3.5 lift with Springs shocks. track bar travis@dieselperformance.ca bar raise bracket drag link flip.
If you do it yourself, not much just have to buy a few tools that you might not already have and a buddy. But if you go to a so called 4x4 shop (4 Wheel Parts, in West Covina, Cal), between $500-800 dollars, depending on the lift. I got quoted $750 for a simple 2.5 lift install with alignment and a few misc charges. Too much.
I'm going to do mine myself with a friend. I want to learn more about my jeep and save some money at the same time. I know I will have a couple of bumps along the way, but that comes with the territory.
Yeah I guess I just wanted you to be aware in case the charged you for hours of labor when they weren't really working there are some small things that take a long time to install but it looks like you just had a coil spacer or body lift which really don't take that long
Pay for quality and stick with AEV. A proper lift is 3.5" minimum with 35" tires. Their parts including lift kits are designed by their engineers who used to work for Jeep so you won't run into problems that will cost money down tge road like this guy will. Their 3.5" is $3200 and includes Bilstein 5600 shocks with a steering stabilizer. A stock Rubi comes with 32". Going to 33" is a waste of money and putting 35" with only a 2" lift will have rub issues. And if you don't upgrade the other necessities like gussets, tie rods and especially the front axle on anything other than the Rubi, things will bend and snap when you least expect it. If you're gonna do it, do it right the first time. You didn't do enough homework buddy. Just the fact that you might put 35s shows that. That's why there was no difference in anything when you got in and how it drove. You were expecting the differences that only a 3.5" with 35s would have given. It's not stock anymore but now you're in the group of people (suits) that do the bare minimum, as cheap as possible, by a shop that doesn't specialize in Jeeps. AEV. Google that shit.
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler thank you dude, I just got mine 4 months ago and I'm thinking on putting some bigger tires and now I know that I don't need a lift, looks good either way 👍🏼
@ 5:40 ...it was at this moment he knew he was going for 35s, your lips say one thing but your eyes deceive you lol
Has someone ever told you, that you look like Jeff Goldblum? 😄
Haha yes, many times. Thanks :)
I just purchased a 2017 and was debating between a 2.5 - 3.5 lift with 35" tires and you solidified my decision sick setup with the 2.5 & 33" tires!
igloo211 sounds awesome. In my newer videos you will see my 35s with 2.5 inch lift. Take a look and let me know your decision.
Looks amazing I can’t wait to get mine!
I just bought one and I freakin love it!!! I'm getting a 2.5 in lift with 17 in XD 811 and 35 in tires
Congrats do it up brother. And add me on Instagram would love to see your jeep if you aren't already following me @2015wrangler
Man, that looks awsome! I don't think you need 35s, those 33s are perfect for that lift.
I got tempted and couldnt resist!!! I got 35s and made a video :)
Should have done the RC spring and shock lift for $339. Same install steps but a much more solid way to lift your Jeep.
Chris Mak It’s not like he needs the added uptravel anyway. For a cosmetic lift, you could argue he could’ve even gone with a cheaper lift
Thanks for your review I’m going to lift mine 2.5 inches next week with my 33inch tires!!!! Looks great
no crunch when you went in the garage ,thats a good thing , 15% more rough ride aint bad.
lol, no crunch and added more lift to it by adding 35s. Still no crunch ;)
Looks awesome man.
33's fit with no lift no rub with proper backspaceing and still have clearance.
At least your going to take your Jeep off roading, I know many people that spend thousands on their Jeep and they don't even leave pavement
Its so true!
Good choice with the rough country! Come join the 40's club great video
KingsDisasterGarage haha one day :)
I currently have 31s on stock. Ive decided to go with the 33s with the 2.5” lift
Im going to try the 2.5 inch lift on a 2011 2 door jk. Im so exited
Looks good!
Thanks :)
Just come into the US for hols from UK and I am really warming to these Jeeps, the more I see them..very Nice car man
Thank you bro!
Looks beautiful Jeff!! How much did the lift cost you?
Looks great! I knew you couldn't resist that lift mod.Too bad you didn't test it off road before but now you have no excuse for a bit of off road
Thats true, I loved it off road, so much that I got 35s now to go with that lift :)
you should get a 6 inch lift +Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler
Chanse Ormon tempted to do at least 4. Thanks for your thoughts man
Looking great man! Been looking forward to your vids!
thanks man :)
I love your jeep and Your yankee hat is sweet!
Jon Hettrick thanks brother
ducking finally! I hate when people think it's the same thing when you buy the biggest tires and rims a stock jeep can support and rationalize not getting a lift
True, and now just put on 35s to go with that lift :)
I’m know I’m late but what size wheels are those. 17s 18s 16s ??? Thank you in advance
4.5 inch lift on a 2008 sahara....get looks all day long in LA....and I still preform well....after our rains.....it tore the mud up!
Glad I watched your video! Nice Jeep bro.
JediMasterJF thanks bro
How much did you pay for the whole process especially for the labour? I am planning to lift my jeep in Toronto as well.
Wait... sooo... You had someone else install EVERYTHING ?
waiting to see some light off roading clip . over all it looks great bro
I did :)
I have a 2016 jeep and I want to lift him and put bigger tires, but I just want to put the tires , no LEDs or change the chest and stuff, only the tires, do you know how much it costs ?
What size tires do you want? For 35 inch tires you are looking at around 1500 Canadian for 5 of them and can go up depending on the brand
I put 35s on my stock lift before i ever put my 3" on. You'll be fine
Just ordered my teraflex 2.5 inch lift. wanted 33's vs 35's since its my daily drive ...i think this looks great and if my math is correct should be exactly the same as the stock space from top of the wheel to fender (technically .5 higher)......my main question is...when ordering the tire is this a 285/70/17 or a 275/70/17?
hope yu dont end up havin a hard time with top front shock bolts.Did my 3.5 inch yesterday.Had to pretty much snap of the bolts to get the shocks out because of rust.Also get ready with a 15 or 16 mm to adjust the draglink over an over an over.The esp is kind of a bitch to get to go away right after lifting.
my 3.5 inch lift,the jku is now taller than i stand with stock sahara wheels an tires.Im 5,11
Looks Great 👍
the bestop front bumper you have, Was it a direct fit or what else did you have to order with it?
happy for you a jeep is a cool guy ride I'm a jeep lover
Thanks man
was that a full lift kit bro ? with springs and shocks ? or just spacers ? im thinking of adding 33 inch tires with 2.5 lift . i already got the fox shocks installed now i just need the springs and tires .
Just a budget lift that was spacers only!
Needs a winch :)
How's the light bar preform on its own?
Haha yess. Light bar is really good. Well worth it
Can you make video of your jeep size dimensions. I need for 1 of my project. I searched but I couldn't find blue prints.
you need and extra .75 inch lift to make up for rake and the weight of your bunker
these trucks look awesome litfed, this one is tops
Thank you :)
Clean ride
Thank you!
i was really waiting for this video
Glad I did it!
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler yes!, do you still plan on modifying the jeep?.
+Pedro Torres well is just put 35s on and made a video of that and put a stubby antenna on. Now I'm gonna put on wheel spacers :)
Hey do you remember by chance the actual tire size in metric? Was it like a 285/12.5/17?
hanson bumpers and a warn winch!...just saying...my Warn winch is rated at 12.5k ...with a wireless remote
Firstblaine p I saw some warn ones over the weekend and really contemplating
Do you have any issues like vibrations after doing the 2.5 lift? And did you change the drive shaft as well?
Not after the lift but after I got the 35s. Might be a balancing issue though. Havent changed the drive shaft.
Hi great videos on jeeps.
Have a 2016 Rubicon unlimited hard rock.
Was thinking of putting 35" x 12 and a half tires, and also 4" lift.
Do I need a lift or can I just put the 35" tires.
Hope someone can help me out on this.
E N hey buddy. You need a lift with 35s. Minimum is 2.5 inches but you will experience some rubbing on tight corners. Anything over 3 inches is safe. 33s won't need any lifting on your jeep.
Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler cool thanks
I would do the same u did.. 33s and lift later when I got bored
Also I think the 33s look fine with your lift
My friend has a 2.5 lift with 35s it looks awesome.. Bit he always mentions he's not a fan of how it drives
Hey man. Thanks for that insight and comment. Ya might keep this set up for a while but good to know. Thanks again.
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler yep and my 2011 335xdrive is still forsale I'm interested in a white wrangler with white top and when like yours.
+Herakles what a coincidence. I had a Bmw 323i 2006 but a beemer and went to a jeep. You will love it.
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler also because you have extended the length of your shocks you are now straining you shocks. expect early failure
Hey man I'm bout to ask u weirded question does it really pays off to get extended warranty for jeep or if u have got the extended warranty bcz u have ur jeep for while or did u have any problem with jeep so far???
Hey good question. I have had mine since November 2015 and bought it brand new without extended warranty. No issues so far. They are generally good when you buy them brand new.
Bro when u did the lift did u have to change ur rear axle on ur jeep?
Cowboys Nation hey man. Nope didn't need to
That looks great!
Matthew Barnhart thank you :)
does your jeep still fit in shopping mall car parks with 2.1 clearance.
It sure does. Even with my 37s and 3.5 inch lift now, it stands at 2.0 clearance or 6ft 5 roughly.
JL and JK, what's the difference???
Cool. All this time it looked like it was lifted. Guess it was the tires. What made you get spaces instead of coil spring lift?
Honestly speaking, it was the budget. Wanted it to look good for a bit less.
its prob gonna cost around 3 grand in total for everything.Lift,install,front end alignment,wheels and tires,procal or flashpac f5 scanner.Then yur alll done.
just curious, how much did they charge for the install on top of the price for the lift?
About 400 bucks canadian.
Check out our first video, amazing wrangler climbing ! Jeep lovers ! Where ya at ?
that jeep looks bad ass what size of wheels an what was the damage for all the install??
Hey buddy. Thanks a lot. Believe it or not, they are only 33 inch tires with a 2.5 inch lift. About 700 for parts and installation all in. :)
I have a challenge for you. Don't start anymore videos with "Hey guys, what is up?".
Matthew Barnhart lol I failed that challenge. Have a different welcome now in my newer videos I think
Hey man here did you buy your lift kit from? I live in toronto too and cant find a shop anywhere
What kind of tires are those???
you should do a before and after shot
I honestly don't understand why people buy jeeps and don't use them for off-roading which is what they were built for.
Thanks for your comment. If you are referring to me, then lets clear some stuff up. First off, if you have watched other videos, I have taken it on a dirt trail. Secondly, I live in Toronto, the closest rock or mud trail is about 3 hours from Toronto and if you have noticed on other videos, I have a family and two new born's so its very difficult with twins to get away.

😂😂😂 cause people can buy whatever they want, it's there money
because they can and want to
Did you just did a body lift?
it looks nice bro 👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much :)
Very nice jeep! good look!! where did you get your wheels and tires package in the GTA? i need to find a good place to purchase them for a good price. thanks, Matt
Hey, wheels for less. Amazing deals. Ask for Ameer!
HEY !!! dude keep doing what your doing the jeep looks awesome , im looking to lift mine to 2.5 do you have the link on the one you got ,how does it drive with the 35s
First off thanks a lot. The lift was a budget lift from rough country. They were 2.5 inch spacers and not a suspension lift with springs and shocks and such. I don't have a link but you can check out roughcountry.com I believe. All the best
What's your mpg after the lift?
It's never typically the lift that messes with the miles, it's the tires. The bigger the tires, the lower your miles get.
also your jeep will behave the exact same. you won't get any flex out of spacers. do a 3.5 lift with Springs shocks. track bar travis@dieselperformance.ca bar raise bracket drag link flip.
should've lifted the jeep 4-6 inches
Bryan Martinez coming soon :)
its for sure going to look beast now🙌
Bryan Martinez thanks. Stay tuned!
you never drive ur jeep y are ur breaks and rotors so clean
DJ TNT I do some trailing but wash it up good for the videos
shit looks decent🔥💯
twentytwo doubleoo thank you :)
whats your mpg
God this guy can talk
Your Jeep still look pretty cool the way you had it before with the lift ,but it looks better lifted. 👍
Thanks man. :)
Precious de jeep unlimited
Thank you very much
come out west I'll take ya wheeling
my wife's JKUR rides on Nittos 35 and she is a angry Asian woman.
Oh no... lol.
Nice
Thanks man!
hey wat is the rim spec that u have on?
Hey bro. 17s. Have to go and check the rest.
Ok thanks
anyone know how much it costs?
Hey about 350 Canadian for the budget boost
My Jeep. Stock gearing on 35’s and gets 12 miles to the gallon. A 50 mile round tip cost me $12. It’s BS.
Nick Fuller so re gear, dummy
lift looks good on the Jeep .... ps. you should be reppin' your home town Blue Jays, not the Yanks
True say. Got the hat cause I loved the NY logo but ya will invest in our hometown one :)
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler the fox shocks I've installed are amazing better than Oldman shocks . less bouncing on speed bumps and pot holes
I am glad to hear its working out for ya!
Sweet. Please take it off-road and tear it up a bit. Your jeep will thank you for it.you have no excuse not to with that souped up ride you got
You got it. That's the plan. Looking for trails around toronto or just outside
How's that rough country treating you? I heard it was not that great.
The springs sag however these are just spacers in my factory springs so I won't run into any of those issues.
That's good. Thanks for the info.
+Juan Armendariz anytime.
Love the car what size wheels are they?
33in tires
Nice jeep kid
Hey thank you
How much is getting a lift usually cost?
If you do it yourself, not much just have to buy a few tools that you might not already have and a buddy. But if you go to a so called 4x4 shop (4 Wheel Parts, in West Covina, Cal), between $500-800 dollars, depending on the lift. I got quoted $750 for a simple 2.5 lift install with alignment and a few misc charges. Too much.
In Toronto here, I got my budget boost (spacers and a few other small parts) all installed for $400. Took them about 4 - 5 hours.
I'm going to do mine myself with a friend. I want to learn more about my jeep and save some money at the same time. I know I will have a couple of bumps along the way, but that comes with the territory.
+Ray Marcial its a 8 hour job in a friends driveway with all the friends tools an 2 friends helping.Soooo
if you don't get it done through your jeep dealership it could very easily void your warranty just a heads up.
looks sweet!!! what kind of lift did you go with?
Thank you. It's a budget boost by rough country. 2.5 inch spacers.
Did you change out the shocks too?
+Signature Home Inspection no. Just the spacers for the lift
Should have done 35" tire and 4" lift
Kevin Haynes actually did 37s with a 3.5 inch lift and looks sick. Check out the few latest videos
I'm just saying the lift you had them install shouldn't have taken more than 1 hour there was no reason to leave
I guess it was their first time or they might have not had all the tools. Oh well, its done.
Yeah I guess I just wanted you to be aware in case the charged you for hours of labor when they weren't really working there are some small things that take a long time to install but it looks like you just had a coil spacer or body lift which really don't take that long
Ps I like your jeep I have an 02 tj a lot of ideas but not much money I myself am looking for a lift and enjoyed the video

Tbone Slim lots of falsehoods here but everyone has their opinions
So you had 33' tires without a lift???
That's correct. No lift before with 33s.
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler and no problem turning around corners or anything?
+danny avila I feel it away a bit more but other than that, it's not bad. Was always a wide and heavy vehicle to begin with.
+Blacked Out Jeep Wrangler thank you dude, I just got mine 4 months ago and I'm thinking on putting some bigger tires and now I know that I don't need a lift, looks good either way 👍🏼
+danny avila awesome. Do it up :)
how much it cost you?
About 300 for the budget boost spacers and another 400 for installation unfortunately. Labour ain't cheep.
If I owned a shop and he offered me $1,000,000 for a tire rotation..I’d turn him down. Poor guy.
I really like the 33's! I was wondering what brand of tires you had though and if you new the width of your tires?
Quinton Bose hey buddy. Thanks. The 33s were by Hercules 12.5 inches wide.
how much
DJ TNT about 250 canadian
This kind of guy pays $400 for an oil change. He makes me embarrassed to own a Jeep..breathhhhh...ok. I’m good now.
Mall crawler
what is up! im super pump!
Its stiff because you've got nitrogen shocks. They prevent body roll by being stiffer. A hydrogen shock would be what you want for a less stiff ride.
Lol I wouldn't be able to enter your garage
Lol, how tall is your jeep? Would love to see your ride. Hit me up on instagram @2015wrangler
