AirLinks - Jeep Grand Cherokee 2011-2020 - Leveling

[@Japplesnap]

I made these myself. You can get the 8mm ball socket end on Grainger for about $8 each and then you just need some threaded rod. Easy peasy and works perfectly. Mine have been on for more than 4 years now.

[@thedetailhotlap]

That's awesome, I'm glad it worked out for you. I was just nervous about the quality if I did it myself.

[@Japplesnap]

@@thedetailhotlap Yup, it's the same thing the guy who sells them is doing. Those ball sockets are common pieces and then you just need the threaded rod and you're golden. I posted this info on the JeepGarage forum.

[@joshvaldovinos]

Would you have links to this stuff? Would really appreciate it

[@benjamincarrascootarola7057]

Could you give me the measurements end to end so i can make ones for myself please? Thanks man

[@Japplesnap]

@@benjamincarrascootarola7057 It depends on what you are looking to do. Raise, or lower? For my Jeep, I wanted to raise the front a bit to make it more level with the rear. I can give you those measurements if that's what you're trying to do.

[@CF-rb2fd]

Can you lift it back up after installing these?

[@loganschepper1656]

I installed mine on my 2013 Jeep grand Cherokee and when I drive now it is super bouncy and I don’t know how to fix it you have any advice on how I can get this issue to go away

[@thedetailhotlap]

Bouncy? I didn’t experience this. I would reach out to Airlinks

[@gtaylor1564]

Someone got brand new tires

[@thedetailhotlap]

hahaha yup! Those were decent tires.

[@amrit5669]

Hi Where did buy this one. Please guide. Thanks in advance

[@marcogomez851]

How many inches can u lowered with thoses links

[@Grant1000T]

Can you still use the snow sand mud rock presets with the airlines installed?

[@thedetailhotlap]

Yes!

[@tinycampergang572]

How did you get the tiny little safety pins in? Can’t get them in at all once they are popped into the ball.

[@thedetailhotlap]

it is a little difficult. practice on it before actually putting it on the vechile

[@darco4079]

I have 2020 Grand Cherokee Trailhawk. I dont have to be worried that this my void my warrany?

[@thedetailhotlap]

I can't confirm if it does or doesn't. I'm just showing you how to do it.

[@jimw4995]

I have a 2011 Grand Cherokee Overland Summit I want to bring the rear down ??

[@thedetailhotlap]

That's a great question. I don't have an answer. You could check out their page to see if they have that option.

[@dantejimenez2679]

@Glenn R can you make a video on how to use it. i am having issues adjusting it. i actually want to lower it as much as i can and the lowest input i can get it is to 50mm. i tried a lower number like 45mm or 40mm and it says the parameter is out of range.

[@dantejimenez2679]

@Glenn R that sucks. It actually goes lower when I put it in park but not a much as I would like. Airlinks it is.

[@superduper476]

What lengths, front and rear, did you find best for the links versus ride quality? Tks.

[@thedetailhotlap]

I'm not sure on the length, but It rides just as good. I had someone comment how different mine looked compared to a stock ride height.

[@willbrewa]

Does anyone know the name of the piece that is being replaced? I would like to look around to compare prices since it is such a simple piece.

[@thedetailhotlap]

I can't find the part number but i'm pretty sure it's a Airlink. Pretty standard on Dodge and Jeep vehicles equipped with air suspension.

[@spartan2010100]

I just buy the leveling kit from them but to put the top safety pin it’s literally imposible 🥴lol I don’t know how you did it but hey good that works for you 👍

[@thedetailhotlap]

Yeah, please have some patients when installing it. Practice before you put it on your vehicle! If you need more reference or help go to AirLinks website

[@spartan2010100]

@@thedetailhotlap thanks 👍 hows your Jeep performance with the links?

[@alimaki8130]

I just bought the levelling kit I think they where already installed?

[@spartan2010100]

@@alimaki8130 Yeah they came installed but you have to removed to be able to snapped on the bold joint, It wasn't an easy thing to do, but I did it and it looks great. The only thing I don't like is that if you take a pot on the road or a bump you feel it in your soul lol. but you have to sacrifice something 🤷‍♂️

[@alimaki8130]

@@spartan2010100 see I didn’t know that … did you have to adjust the air link or did it come adjusted ?? I’m still waiting for putting mine on …

[@MyKiwi14]

Does it ride worse like if your on off-road 2 presenting?

[@thedetailhotlap]

not really, I believe it works the same. I notice the back hitting even before putting these on the vehicle. I usually run mine in offroad 1.

[@805gregg]

The reason it is raked is for gas mileage, you just screwed your mileage up DS

[@thedetailhotlap]

thank you for your comment, and thank you for watching! Don't forget to hit that Subscribe button and notification bell :)

[@robertmorgan6534]

Some people might be more interested in aesthetics than gas mileage DS.

[@cruzzindodge]

I know this is a old comment but it's incorrect! It's raked like all suv and trucks so it can hull a trailer or gear and have the vehicle leveled out and not squatting

[@jimwheeler6094]

I believe that this can be done via software with AlfaOBD.

[@thedetailhotlap]

probably....that's not what this video is about

[@jimwheeler6094]

@@thedetailhotlap, I have the software and the hardware needed and if I ever manage to stop the leaking of the obscenely expensive Ultra High Purity Nitrogen from this Quadra-Lift system I'll try it.

[@zayres29]

Is an alignment required

[@thedetailhotlap]

nope!

[@francescapatenaude7608]

Curious as to how your Jeep has been doing? Also after install, did you leave it in the or2 setting or did it adjust automatically after driving? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@thedetailhotlap]

When installed a “new” ride height will be the new normal. Since the stems are longer it just sits higher than stock. The shocks will work as normal.

[@thedetailhotlap]

Idk if that makes sense, but hope that helps!

[@trey3dynamiteent]

Does the suspension still adjust normally

[@Oliveryoung44]

@@trey3dynamiteentYes, the suspension still adjusts as normal. I have them installed on my 2021 WK2 trail hawk. I asked Shane to customize me some that will raise the back a half inch and the front an inch.

[@robertromano8002]

How would I do this on a 2013

[@thedetailhotlap]

I’m not sure!

[@chrislogan7847]

What size tires are you running and any spacers on the rims?

[@thedetailhotlap]

265.50.R20 and no spacers

[@CalamityBaird]

Maybe this is a dumb question but did you lower the back or raise the front?

[@thedetailhotlap]

raised the front. There's options to lower the back and front

[@MrDanilo11]

Does this cause any damage to the air suspension in the long run?

[@thedetailhotlap]

So far, no issues at all!

[@jermainemitchell2936]

What length you made the rods to level?

[@mrhagstv]

I bought these directly from Jeep Airlinks GC.

[@jermainemitchell2936]

Yes I did too..but they are adjustable. Do you know your total length to level the front.

[@mrhagstv]

@@jermainemitchell2936 I wish I could tell you the length, but I don't have a digital measuring tool. I might be able to use a tape measure, idk if that would be much of help

@@thedetailhotlap your video doesn’t show shit. You don’t film the actual removal “live” and you don’t show the install either. Worthless.
