Ryan L they all got bought up by rich guys to do this stuff to haha took something worth 14k and put 10k more in parts onto it and then they try to sell them for 25k to 30k
Couldn't agree with you more! I bought my 2000 TJ for roughly 7500 and spent another 1k in it. And I am VERY happy with it. Not my daily driver, but it get's more attention that my daily Jeep Grand Cherokee. lol
Love these videos on all the specs and details definitely helpful for people starting to build a rig. Thanks for these and them Moab trip videos so awesome
Man, what a beauty! Very nice sir. Thanks for the brands and specs, I know this is an old video but I’m working on an 89 YJ right now and would love to build up something like this over the long haul. 👌
@@rockyour4x4 I think you say "simple, effective" at 13:36. I'm not trashing you. More like to me, an amateur, this build is anything but simple. No worries : )
I have that UCF hydro brake bracket- it is the best! I changed my drum brakes over to disc brakes because I absolutely HATE working on drums. Even though I didn't have to mess with the rear drums for a long time, when they started to not work there wasn't anything I could do to get them to be as good as they originally were, even after a complete rebuild. The disc brakes from a Ford Explorer had those dumb drums inside the discs, and I could not get the cables to operate the drums more than a few pulls of the parking brake. The UCF bracket solved ALL of my problems and I got better parking brake hold than my drums ever could.
Sergio Enriquez thank you. The owner picked out some good parts. The lower mounts on the front coilovers were cut and moved down 1.5”. It looks and drives even better now sitting that much lower.
Great looking jeep that clearly works really well. I noticed there's no front sway bar - does the owner prefer it that way? I have no sway bar with a 3 link with 14" CO's in front of my yj and leaf springs in the rear and I've gotten very used to the "flexy front and planted rear" vibe.
Nice build for sure. The only thing I question is why a genright tank was not used. You can push a dana 60 out like 6" with it so the 44 should have had no problem fitting.
Rocky guzman It’s hard to say, the customer left it with us for about six months and just let us work on it as we could. That also decreased his labor cost significantly.
Does Tyler still have this Jeep? If so, any changes over the years? Make a Updated video? Pros and Cons? I really like the lightweight build and hope to hear back. Thanks 👍🏼
@@rockyour4x4 glad to hear he still has it. I ran into him one night on trail 21 when he was helping out a friend of his. Seems like a great guy with a awesome Jeep. I’m trying a similar build but we installed the larger JKR ring and pinion in my stock LJR axle vs a JKR axle swap. So far so good.
Ok I read all the comments and this jeep is very slick.... what is the parkng brake valve make and part number I was contemplating line locks but this is sooo much cooler
Sick build. I see you guys stretched the rear. I have the same kind of build and am running into problems with the evap cannister. The computer is registering it as a vacuum lock and it intermittently will not rev over 2k. Any suggestions? Thanks guys.
RockYour4x4 Hmm. I put in the Genright Tank and just put breathers on the lines running to the tank. What did you dod with the lines that ran to the evap?
Hey i just replaced mine it’s from auto zone it’s not for the Jeep tj but everyone on the forums said it fit and sure enough it did and works perfectly
Is there a kit for that parking brake master cylinder? ive been looking to build brackets to do this but if there is a kit ill order it right now... for reals. thanks in advance!
indianajones500 the whole frame is OEM. It has the front extension with the TNT kit and the front/rear coil buckets were cut off for placement of the coilover towers.
Isaiah YJ Smith You can’t really put a price on that. There’s so many variables that fall in. The coil overs and stretch are the bulk of the labor on this set up.
I have an 06 wangler unlimited it has the long body most people would call it the LJ. How much would it cost to get something like this build done for my Jeep?
thats where the old upper control arm mount was. with the long arm lift kit, the installer has to remove and grind off the welds otherwise the new control arms contact the old mounts.
@@rockyour4x4 ok cool thanks! I have always liked this jeep, and my friend wanted me to go look at it cause he saw it for sale. Amd I said I know that jeep 👍🏽 Nice work! Thanks for the reply
No disrespect to JK but to me TJ was last of the true wranglers. Where a common man can afford to purchase, maintain and wheel.
Ryan L they all got bought up by rich guys to do this stuff to haha took something worth 14k and put 10k more in parts onto it and then they try to sell them for 25k to 30k
Agreed!
The only thing the jk has over the tj is the 4 door unlimited
most Jeeps after 2000 SUCK !
Couldn't agree with you more! I bought my 2000 TJ for roughly 7500 and spent another 1k in it. And I am VERY happy with it. Not my daily driver, but it get's more attention that my daily Jeep Grand Cherokee. lol
This is what I've pictured in my head... Slight differences in some parts, but overall, exactly what I want to build. Thanks for this!
That is the perfect Jeep.

dam that TJ is a fucking sight /whistle, loved the extra wheelin footage at the end there, specially that dune jump lol
13:36 I LOL every time they describe these builds as "simple"
I said simple!?!?! 😂
@@rockyour4x4 I think you say "simple, effective" at 13:36. I'm not trashing you. More like to me, an amateur, this build is anything but simple. No worries : )
This is the cleanest build/fab I've ever seen. Great job.
Glad to see the love for the TJ still.
Great looking Jeep! Looks to be an awesome build, everything you need, nothing you don't!
Love walk around videos. Thanks
Beautiful and inspirational!
Beautiful Build ! Great Job Guys
Beautiful well build jeep 👍
very cool build. Im working on my 05

Lovely suspension tune, impressive stuff, also looks like the dogs danglies!
Wowwww good jeep ...very cool 💪💪💪
Love that airtime!
That was one mean Jeep, dam built right and drove right man , respect to the builder he knows what he wants. Aswome work.
Sergio Enriquez thank you. The owner picked out some good parts. The lower mounts on the front coilovers were cut and moved down 1.5”. It looks and drives even better now sitting that much lower.
Beautiful bro those axles tho amazing. Paint the scratch on the frame tho don’t want rust
i bet she drives better than a caddy, y'all should do my tj like this. nice build
This is very nice. It looks tasteful and very capable. Makes my tj rubicon look small. I am gushing over this build.
Thats a nice axle setup so you always have a spare if you tow it.
Damn! Wish I had that kind of money to drop in my TJ!
the TJ is the last of the True Jeeps.
Very Nice , I own a 99 since 2000 .
Pritchett canyon, kane creek, white dunes, golden spike, and cliffhanger? Maybe some moab rim... love Moab
Amazing!!! Something to shoot for!
Well done!
nice build, that is a driver!

You can push a dana 60 out like 6" with it so the 44 should have had no problem fitting.
Future plans for a 14 bolt and he didn’t want anything hanging down. Also, the Motobilt fuel cell is 1/3 the cost.
Very, very nice Jeep. The dribbling water background was about like water torture.
Nice jeep! Looks almost like mine
Nice TJ
I have an 05 that’s set up pretty nice also
the king coil over is it worth it??
It looks like it rides nice??
Allan Wagner the coilovers give a lot more flexibility to your suspension design. They are worth it.
Phuking awesome driving bro
Cool!!! Daje!!!🤙🏻
BL is best mod you can do you will be amazed at amount of mud stuck up in the body also lets you get to bolts that would be otherwise impossible
I have a 99 sport and just hit 135,000 miles on it and with that inline 6 I don’t think I’ll ever have problems for the rest of my life
What exact bumper is that? I really like the look of it
Bad ass jeep mine is a 97 tj 2.5
Not the ideal motor but still a tj I'd rather have a 2.5 tj than a built jk lol.
Hey the 2.5 isn't all that bad, mine's bone stock except some 32" mud terrains and I've put it through hell
An amazing build. My dream Jeep. How much did it cost for the whole build?
Bill Griffith I’d have to add up all of his invoices for that (and there were a bunch spread out over the whole last year). I’d say 25-30k.
good job
Ruff stuff 😂 ❤
That's a nice functional TJ, what muffler was that on it? It sounded really good on that sand dune.
thirzty1 Magaflow part #10426
Awesome thanks
And it drips oil now that’s a TJ
nice jeep , nice presentation,,, but did i miss something ? how did you get the steering column to mate with the repositioned steering box.
roderick mchardy That is part of the kit from T&T Customs.
@@rockyour4x4 thanks for the reply mate...... i just like to do my own modifications...
Wow lots of money
Sick Jeep , What headlights are those ?
Those are Seward Offroad G2 DOT headlights.
Imagine landing these instead of the Willys WB at Normandy.
Dude that's nice 👌. How much money did you end up putting on that?
Rocky guzman It’s hard to say, the customer left it with us for about six months and just let us work on it as we could. That also decreased his labor cost significantly.
Nice
Does Tyler still have this Jeep? If so, any changes over the years? Make a Updated video? Pros and Cons? I really like the lightweight build and hope to hear back. Thanks 👍🏼
Yes, he cracked the transmission case on a rock somehow and it’s waiting it’s turn for a transmission repair.

i skimmed through the vid awsome build can you tell me your power plant or give reference to time stamp in vid thanks
This is a stock 4.0 and 5-spd manual trans
Can you show me how you did the rear shocks on that? I have a problem with sag on the back of mine because of weight
This is the GenRight outboard shock mount kit.
Where did you get those front quarter panel armor plates. Never seen those. Awesome
I’m not sure who’s those were, but check out Motobilt and GenRight.
Thanks for the quick response. I found them with your help 🤘
17:44... Meanwhile, the JK has difficulty getting over a brick... and costs 3 times more to build.
When crawling at the end of your vid, you go 4hi or 4low?
AS10 always 4 low
Sick build. I see you guys stretched the rear. I have the same kind of build and am running into problems with the evap cannister. The computer is registering it as a vacuum lock and it intermittently will not rev over 2k. Any suggestions? Thanks guys.
Robby P we just removed it and left it with a check engine light for now. It runs great.
RockYour4x4 Hmm. I put in the Genright Tank and just put breathers on the lines running to the tank. What did you dod with the lines that ran to the evap?
Rob P I don’t remember. I’ll look at it next time he comes by.

nm found it... ordering this thing now thanks!! undercoverfab.com/misc-brackets-/162-jeep-tj-parking-brake-bracket-kit.html
I’m late to this video but I love the build… is there any required modification to the 44 JK axles to fit them on a TJ?
Yes. You have to cut all of the brackets off and weld on new brackets.
@@rockyour4x4 appreciate you, thanks! Inspiration for my own TJ
nice
This thing is ready for war.Just need to mount the 50 cal on top..!!
Very nice TJ. How do you like those tires?
Lindel Easley he liked them but found a set of 40” Trail Grapplers that he’s running now.
@@rockyour4x4 Thanks for the info. I've got a set of 35" STT pros that I haven't gotten to try out, yet.
Solid looking Jeep ! What is total Lift ?
Guy Tanodra height over stock is 4-5”
How does the transmission mount with the Motobilt skid/4 link set up?
It mounts to the center section of the crossmember with a riser block just like the factory mount is.
What frequencies do you use on the two-way radio?
DMR Dude a variety but mostly channels pre loaded on the Rugged Radios.
is the center section of the frame the only OEM part ?
indianajones500 the whole frame is OEM. It has the front extension with the TNT kit and the front/rear coil buckets were cut off for placement of the coilover towers.
BTW- what is the travel on those Kings?
Brad Ellis 14s
What s pod did you use for the switches
robert smith the original sPOD, www.4x4spod.com
How much wild a set up similar to this cost for a YJ? But without the stretch and coil overs
Isaiah YJ Smith You can’t really put a price on that. There’s so many variables that fall in. The coil overs and stretch are the bulk of the labor on this set up.
🌷🌷🌷
Niice.. can you do a video on how to get in a lifted jeep without looking like a noob and embarrassing yourself in public?.
what are the spring rates on the coilover?
Eden Medina front are 150/250 and rear are 200/250
I have an 06 wangler unlimited it has the long body most people would call it the LJ. How much would it cost to get something like this build done for my Jeep?
justin boone I would expect $25-30,000.
Can’t be an 07. Gotta be an 04-06 for the LJs. 07 was first year for JK.
Lon Redmon yeah I meant to put 06
those are some nice rims and they stand out from what you see everyday
Awesome Jeep! You ever wish it had more t case work though? Like a atlas or rubicon case?
Austin Swartz The owner plans for an Atlas and LS next year.
And what is the hight ride on the coil over
Picapiedra 4x4 it’s roughly 3-4” if lift over stock
Question what is the travel in the coil over 14
Picapiedra 4x4 yes, 14s at all corners
@@rockyour4x4 thanks
Bad ass
What size are the king coil overs
2.0 x14”
How’s this thing for street/daily driving? Just curious.
Mackenzie Nichols drives great
Thanks for the reply, really love the look of this thing!
Mackenzie Nichols if you can handle the crappy mpg they are just fine around town. Not as great on the highway.
What year TJ is your jeep?
Dean Grigsby it’s a 2000
Any motor mods? What was the exhaust setup?
robert smith stock engine, Magnaflow exhaust
@@rockyour4x4 thank you! I plan on running a very similar set up!

Needs a v8 now!
price of the build not including labor?

I’m sorry, what tire tire Carrier
Andres Lasbourdeete GenRight aluminum
No Atlas?? :)
It does have a 5:1 2speed now.
SAHWEEEET!!
RAY MARTINDALE thanks. He just swapped on some TR Beadlocks with 39” Krawlers.
4:22 What did someone bondo the frame?
thats where the old upper control arm mount was. with the long arm lift kit, the installer has to remove and grind off the welds otherwise the new control arms contact the old mounts.
Rocket Propelled Gaming so is that a yes or no haha
It says Mall rated where do I get one of those
Lawrence Kniser I’m sure Alpha Vinyl or Pixel Decals could hook you up.
I got those from JCROffroad Lawrence Kniser
i think i found this jeep for sale... my buddy wants to go check it out, but can't get a response from seller.
