- Today the @johnsonsadventurequest help me install the Readylift Terrain Flex Max Mojave edition 4" lift kit in my JT Gladiator Mojave. This was all done using basic tools in a normal garage. If you have any specific questions about the lift make sure to comment down below

Nice Rig!.. I have the 2020 Mojave with AEV 2 inch lift. 38X13.50s 5.13 gears redid steering and adjustable front/rear upper and lower arms with adjustable track bar. Think now I might go for that 4 inch lift you have.. So sweet!
Thank you! The height of the 4 inch is nice. It comes with fixed length lower control arms so if I was you I'd keep your adjustable ones in to dial in the alignment. Other than that. Highly recommend this kit
Great job Dev!!
I put Nitto trial grapplers 37"s and a 2 " suspension spacer lift made for the mojave on for a total cab height 78" and my garage entrance is 80". Tire to bottom of fenders is now 10" I have slimline blinkers up front. as you know Mojaves are already 1" high stock .You may not get it in garage or out. Since the bigger tires I changed the ratio To 488 from stock 410s. while they did it I had them install front locker and is switch to my #1 aux switch
Beautiful rig..I like that look..
That k you. She's still a work in progress but it's coming along nicely
@@OffroadGetaway I also have the Mojave in Sarge Green..
I had a terrible experience with ready lift on my jk, had to replace shocks within 6 months, tack bar brackets had rusted within 3, and replaced springs due to sag, (stock bumpers) the only thing that held up to the year mark was the control arms
Pretty nice measurements. I get my 6in Skyjacker lift installed this weekend. Hoping it won't create too much of a lean when off-roading.
Nice! I'm curious how much taller it will be than mine. Make sure to let me know after you got it installed
love your rig! I have a stock 2022 Mojave, dont even know where to begin, lol. only had it for 5 months.
Hey thank you. Honestly I had ZERO intention on lifting it but after I started adding all the other stuff and my Rubicon buddy had a 3 inch lift I just had to be the bigger one in the group.
@@OffroadGetaway I know, we had a meet up, and my Mojave looked so small, lol. My gladdy is my DD, so i wont want to get 12 MPG, lol. im getting 18.4 now. I dont know what to do, ugh lol
How are you liking this lift? I debated between this one and the FabTech Trail Lift system. Ended up going with the Fabtech lift a few months back. Felt like 4” was a little bit too much for me.
Oh man it came out looking so awesome! I’m thinking about getting the same lift did it affect your ride quality? Any complaints?
@offroadfetaway any tips on making sure axles and things are aligned and the coils are straight up and down?
I’m going to tackle this on the weekend, any tips on keeping things aligned and centered? The geometry is what worries me.
Why are you suggesting relocation/ geometry correction brackets ? Didn't the kit come with lower control arms !? Thanks it looks really good !!
The kit comes with fixed LCAs that are SHORTER than factory. Adjustable uppers and lowers should really be used to locate the axle in the center of the wheelwells
looks nice. I have the same truck and thinking of installing this lift. How does it ride with it? is the factory 4:10 gearing ok with it. did you install a fox steering stabilizer?
Ride is a little stiffer on and offroad. But not bad. Can still go fast down the backroads no problem. Gearing is still fine but will be going 4.88 eventually (rarely sees 7th or 8th gear) and still stock stabilizer. Will upgrade to a teraflex nexus eventually
How is the ready lift holding up, are you still happy with it?
Lift looks awesome! Two questions, what brand light bar brackets are those on the cowl? I’m assuming that’s a 3.6 V6, do you have an aftermarket exhaust on the gladiator? It sounds really good!
GoRhino XE series lightbar bracket. Not Mojave specific but it fits with no issues. And yes it's a 3.6 with the exhaust cut right before the big muffler.
Great video guys what’s the part number ? Thanks
Why did you mark the drive shaft? Last time I checked it doesn’t matter if it’s aligned back into the same hole? I’m just confused lmfao
Hey great video loved it but did you end up setting the front track bar to 34 inches ? What happens if it’s not set to 34 inches
We set it to the lift manufacturer recommendations which was 34.25. but after driving we had to re adjust slightly. Not sure what the exact measurement ended up being. 35" I think. You just want it center under the vehicle or else when the suspension is cycling it can cause some serious binding in the front and the coils will not be straight.
Thanks appreciate the respond awesome jeep brother I have a Mojave as well same lift also just waiting on my tires right now kmc is on back orders sadly
Enjoyed your video. Awesome rig! I noticed you have wheel spacers. Looking to do the same. What are the size and who makes your wheel spacers? Thanks
I DID have wheel spacers. Have since removed now that I have proper offset wheels. But they were 1.75" and I'm not sure what brand as they were given to me. They might go back in just cause I loved the look
You can never go wrong with teraflex products tho if your looking to get some spacers
@@OffroadGetaway roger that thanks
I’m really curious how much flex you get with the sway bar disconnected. Excellent install video!
I believe it was 35" from ground to bottom of tire when I did the forklift test.
@@OffroadGetaway impressive! You have me contemplating this lift vs the AEV 2.0 I was planning on getting. Lol. Does it address the need for a rear driveshaft carrier bearing spacer?
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy no need for carrier bearing spacer. I would highly recommend a set of correction brackets tho just to keep the ride quality with the fox shocks. I'll be posting my video about those shortly. I went with JKS brackets.
@@OffroadGetaway I have been reading a lot of threads that are saying pre-mature wear on the rear driveshaft joints may occur. And the AEV spacer lift includes one, even at only 2" of lift! I could only imagine a 4" lift would need at least a little bit of spacing to get the rear pinion angle a little closer to stock. Do the rear control arms address this?
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy the rear control as do address this. If you would like to reach out to me on instagram I can send you pictures of my pinion angles and the driveshaft at the bearing. @sting_gray_mojave on IG
Hey man, sick Mojave. I got a couple of questions for you. Can you provide links for the tires? What happend to your fenders? Did you customize them? Also do you know if I can install Mojave hood on my Gladiator Sport S?
No worries, the tires are Yokohama Geolanders MT, I'll get a link under this comment, I chopped my factory fenders. I also have a video on doing that and retaining the OEM fender liners. And as for the hood, you can yes but, its more that just a hood swap. You need to do: good, centre cowl, side cowls and hinges. I believe Mopar makes a kit for it now and it's about 7k

Hi great build! What is your wheel offset? And what size spacer did you use ?
These are -12mm offset wheels with 1.75 inch spacer. I have since removed the spacers as there not needed with the -12 rims. Might put them back on tho. I did really like the look
Right on! I have zero offset wheels and 38in tires waiting to go on my gladiator Mojave order and have the same lift kit waiting as well. Does zero offset give me more poke then the neg 12? Offsets confuse me
@@efrensifuentes1236 the more negative you go; the further the tire will poke out. So if stock Mojave rim is +33mm and you are going to 0 and you want a visual idea, just put a tape measure on the side of your wheel and you can see how much more 33mm will come out. For me I would have to go to 45mm to see cause I'm -12mm past 0
Any issues a year later? I’m getting a horrible death wobble
I noticed you installed some shock extensions could you tell me if they came with the kit and if not where did you get them?
Everything in the video came with the kit. The shock extensions are what make this kit Mojave specific
@@OffroadGetaway Thanks for the quick reply,could you tell me how the highway ride has been and I do not see a Mojave kit on there website can you tell me where you purchased the kit from? Thanks again
@@hockeydad5555 69-6043 is the part number. I got it direct from readylift via my parts guy at work. (I work for a jeep dealership)
Do you have to buy all these parts separate or it all comes together?
Everything came toget as a kit
Nice Mojave what are the tire size you put on it??
Thank you! And 37x12.50r17 Yokohama geolander MT
Why do you have to remove the rear brake calipers?
Honestly I can't remember lol probably to get easier access to something
Wait I remember now. It's to allow enough droop in the rear axle to put everything together. The brake lines aren't long enough when the calipers are still attached
@@OffroadGetaway Aren't the brake lines attached to the axle housing, right before they attach to the calipers?
@@TheNotSoOrdinaryCarGuy the abs wire is. But you need to get the axle down quite a ways to fit the new coils. Or I'm sure you could leave it all attached
@@OffroadGetaway That makes sense.
