Custom Lift for a Jeep JL Overland Build

This customer is an overland Guru. He came to us wanting a unique Jeep JL overland build complete with a long-arm air-lift suspension. We've known about this air lift for a long time, but not until recently have we installed it. It's a great option for those of you that want a smooth ride and tons of ride height options. There is much more to this build so take a look at the video and the parts list for more information. Contact us if you want a quote on a build like this for you.

Bubba great video. You were a star in this one. When it comes to expensive hobbies Jeeps are hard to beat. I just see thousands of $$$$ in every inch of this Jeep.

[@williamlee7782]

Almost went this direction with my JKUR (tent and ORO AirRoc and SwayLoc) many years ago. What I'd love to know is how well it drives on and off road and how it handles the top heavy weight from the rooftop tent. There doesn't seem to be enough testimonials/content that talks about this other than the novelties of the system in itself. Thanks for sharing this.

[@premiumkicks9574]

I love the video clips that are edited in lol.

[@ianandrewrobertson]

That’s pretty slick!

[@redbarry2540]

Great stuff, and hope your recovery goes just as smooth as that suspension....!

[@sorenmelchior]

Nice video Bubba! and LOL at the dog... here in Alaska that dog would be a lunch bite for many wild animals here, such as eagles, lynx, wolves, bear, great horned owls, wolverine, etc.. Sadly air suspensions don't work well for us in cold temps as seals give out at sub -20F temps. Same issue with air lockers, which is why electric lockers are more prevalent here.

[@jasonrae3049]

Another great video!

[@MrCleocat]

Absolutely hilarious 🤣, great video as always!

[@bucknbison2297]

Dana 60s alone are about 14K W/O install I had them on my JKUR and are Great!! Now I’m in a Gladi Rubicon on 38’s Pats and drives 80 mph down the road.

[@leroymoore76]

great video hopefully your going to do one on the gladiator. enjoy all your videos

[@mikehoffman3690]

Swaylock. Need one. 🤟

Will Smith’s new single: Gettin Level With it

[@DieselJLUJeep]

Just so sweet this is the ultimate build! Glad it’s not on the 4xe 😀

[@Bigdaddyslasher]

Clean build but I would break that air suspension. I'm a bit hard on everything LOL.

[@executive_coach_andyobrien1827]

Booooooom! More #BADASS jeep envy here!

[@samc3227]

Get kinda level with it

[@joebotics8761]

pretty awesome suspension system.. I wonder how it behaves on a desert run when you are trying to go faster than usual

[@Exodus4x4]

It’s probably ok but I wouldn’t try and compare it to a setup built specifically for desert.

[@rtwg605]

Can you drive it on 3 wheels, like the old Citrons? Either way, seriously cool!

[@njlowtone24]

What happens at 88 mph? :) great video!!

[@rickbarmore1167]

Way to go Bubba. Nice description and hands on. Back hurts - hum, nA can't say it. But hey, got that Hamburger Supercharger in and you were right. Gladiator is great. Quick question, I'm doing an across journey hiring all 48 States q,the Capitals. Would do it now put right now but waiting to be put on the lung 🫁 xplant list. Delay delay, delays. I'll be cruising across Texas and I'd like to make a be line to your Shoup to: 1. Meet you 2. Have you fix any issues On the 20 Gladiator And the 18 JL. wrangler. 3. Bring you and the crew Pizza 🍕. 4. Talk to you about a book I'm writing . And do awesome Texas bragging rights for something. Stay Cool & Keep Building those: 🚙BAD ASS JEEP🚙 🤠

[@maurofmoreno78]

Hi i don't know if this suspension Skyjacker Suspension - 3.5-4" Dual Rate Long Travel w/Black MAX Shocks is good for my JL rubicon 2.0L

[@ut_punkn1859]

Dang, kinda disappointed in how the air ride controller looks. It's 2021 and they pushed out a green screen black text display like it's 1991.

[@Exodus4x4]

I agree. Elon needs to move over to the Jeep world. We need some slick digital stuff.

[@bsideadventures2180]

I still have reservations about air baga. It could go great or down in flames.

[@Exodus4x4]

This system has been around for years. It’s a bit more expensive than other systems, otherwise you’d probably see it around more.

[@TheMexican7896]

I know usually you run a standered height on the bags but if you wanted to ride higher or lower than normal down the road how would that affect your alignment would that pose an issue

[@Exodus4x4]

Only if you didn’t correct your caster and steering wheel. Obviously all that will change as the height does. When you’re Offroad it doesn’t really matter

[@StormbornJKU]

My question is, how well does it articulate?

[@Exodus4x4]

Like any other Jeep, except you have the option of controlling it

[@StormbornJKU]

@@Exodus4x4 I’d think the air bags wouldn’t collapse and extend all that well. They’re pressurized, so collapsing them during compression doesn’t mess them up? And when it lifted all the way up during the demonstration that’s not it’s full extension? It’s definitely a super cool idea and concept and I do like it. But I’m just curious to see flex pics.

[@richarddrombetta6926]

Welcome back Bubba! You heading up for the Great Smokey Mountain Jeep Invasion?

[@Exodus4x4]

Negative. Not this year

[@richarddrombetta6926]

@@Exodus4x4 Hopefully we will see you next year. Hope back SX went well and your healing up.

[@ut_punkn1859]

@@Exodus4x4 man that sucks. I was hoping to see you all there. Still waiting on that Aux Gladi tank.

[@richarddrombetta6926]

I will be sure to sport my vintage Exodus Jeep shirt to rep for you guys!

[@rjejames28]

What does this cost ?

[@epho4772]

Where can I get the air suspension kit for my JT? I’m from Canada and I have been looking for a reliable air suspension for my JT.

[@Exodus4x4]

Contact Steve at Offroad Only.

[@OGStoneVegas]

if only they manufactured the Ursa Minor for the YJ....

[@maggiedonovan]

How much is this build without the new hard top on a 2020 JLU Sport S?

[@Exodus4x4]

Well it isn’t cheap.

[@mbperfection]

is this badass running on stock gear ratio ?

[@Exodus4x4]

3:46 Spicer UD 60 Axles. When you get a new axle set you don't need to regear. You pick your ratio. 5.38 for this one.

[@mbperfection]

@@Exodus4x4 thank you for the info ! There are a lot of sport owners out there looking for power windows and door lock kits installation , I am sure we will crash your channel for that

[@TheLolisuck]

wow i know you said expensive... but 9K ... damn bro

[@mattbrew11]

Costs way too much otherwise great

[@jameshinkle615]

Couldn’t get that dog to stop barking huh?

[@Exodus4x4]

Yeah I could’ve, but I’d probably have gone to jail.

[@nightswatch9007]

What’s the cost of the complete suspension build of this one from you guys?
