Jeep Cherokee KK 4x4 Offroad Test

[@retrodog63]

I have a 2010. I'm part Cherokee but since I live in the states, mine is marked Liberty. I've considered re-badging it. I've got the Limited with the under plating. It's a small tank on wheels. Being so under rated by the general public, they are incredible bargains for a genuine off-road beast these days. This is a great video. Great work and thanks for sharing.

[@joejohnson9993]

Exactly my 2012 Liberty jet is stock and I put that same places that I was surprised once you put it in four wheel drive it's a torque little bastard and it just wants to go

[@lucianoballista7412]

YESSS, I have a KK, not modded for offroad cuz I have my LC OJ50L for all my offroad needs, but it's great to see my underrated KK getting some love!

[@eddieblake4039]

He didn’t even need a spotter! That was a precision operation. Well done mate. I’m going to pick up a liberty.

[@danielcartis9011]

Excellent skills behind the wheel! My Liberty KK is mostly stock and I love taking it off road. Never once been stuck. I off-road to go to rural camping spots and not really dedicated 4x4 trails to push the limits but I am quite happy with the KK abilities

[@AussieFourWheelers]

May it take you to many places and bring you a lot of fun and happiness. Enjoy.

[@_TenaciousD_]

What an awesome KK! Thanks for the vid! Never really see these off-road much. I know they a capable enough with the right tyre and lift combo, although after seeing this I think it should have at least one locker as I was surprised to see the factory traction control kick in so slowly.

[@0522777004]

What type of differential locking does this model have? I wonder why whoever was shot here didn't put that kind of lock. Very nice driving. Like

[@snakeone8541]

Most people that knock the kk have never driven or owned one. Ive owned my 08 for 10 years. Has gotten me thru 10 New England winters. Blizzards deep snow ice never let me down.

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Yep, they get a bit touchy and try dismiss it as a "real" jeep 😂

[@firebir11]

I agree completely, these Americans don’t know a good vehicle when they have one

[@zmanfresno]

Thanks. Nice to see the KK in action

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Glad you liked it 😊

[@samadams4105]

I had a 12 KK, but it got totaled when a herd of deer ran out in the road in front of me and the driver if the pickup behind me didn't even try to stop. Anyway, I loved my KK. I live in the Appalachian mountains and that Liberty could take me anywhere. 8 have an 02 Liberty Renegade now and it's not nearly as capable.

[@worbradar]

Awesome vid love my kk 🇦🇺💪🏼

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.

[@davidstair8936]

Damn, you Aussies sure do know how to wheel. Must be all that rugged outback you guys have out there, super jealous.

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Haha 😂 Thanks bud 👍 You're welcome on a trip if you ever visit Australia.

[@angeldood89]

Awsome video! Can't wait to get bumpers for mine!!

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Glad you liked it 😊 Thanks for watching.

[@Gillty555]

if you live in the states, check out At the helm fabrication. they make great solid stuff for the kk. i got my front bumper from them

[@zmanfresno]

GilL ty Thanks!! Love my KK

[@Trueyarn247]

Great video. Wouldn't mind some jeep WJ action.

[@absgarage8724]

In the United States this is called "Liberty"

[@Christian76S]

in europe too. the latest cherokee already was a fiat model *puke*

[@nicolasbitsch2982]

Hey there, what sort of aftermarket suspension does it have? King springs perhaps & shocks? any other mod. Many thanks

[@offroadkjadventure]

nice KK ..!!!!

[@KickTheTiresAndLightTheFires]

My jeep friend is going to love this one!!!

[@valeriynaoumenko9101]

Very cool! Where did you buy a front bullbar? I wish to change my plastic one and install a front lamp covers.

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Thanks 👍 It's a Uneek4x4 one from Melbourne.

[@valeriynaoumenko9101]

Aussie Four Wheelers Thank you very much!

[@VikkiG1970]

Thinking of buying one to take my dog to the beach...after watching this it seems perfect to tackle potholes....NZ roads....🙄😅

[@JuanPerez-jt3zp]

Definitely I love my KK . Im wondering to Install it aftermarket shocks. I would like to buy good ones.. Which ones you recommend me to put it on? Thanks!!

[@WesMerc]

I'd love to get those door guards that say Cherokee on them shipped to the states

[@mikenelson2197]

Green Mountain Armory as would I. Can't find them anywhere though

[@bmwkwi]

I'll send you my KK Cherokee ones and you send me your Liberty ones ie. a straight swap. I believe they are vehicle compatible as in same fit just the letters are different obviously. I'm in Australia so post might be a bit much?

[@UralUazMan]

Please tell me the size of the rubber, and how many inches does it sit on?

[@tc1uscg65]

I take it it's stock 4x4? Seems like the braking system doing it's job. Doesn't look like it had lockers or limited slip.

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Yeah, it's traction control. It has a 2" lift and slightly bigger mud tyres.

[@AnythingEvil78]

@@AussieFourWheelershow did you do the lift? I'm considering buying one of these for a bit of off-roading, more sand dunes that rocks tho

[@code_red7744]

What 4 wheel drive system does this have?

[@danielfernandesbarbosa8242]

That’s pretty good. I have a 2012 and would like to do some modifications as well. How muck is the total investment (lift kit+tyres+bullbar)? Thanks mate

[@zl14l41]

Kk parts are ridonkulous. I lifted my commander 2.5in, for almost 2000 usd due to the ifs. Rock rails in the 800usd range. The front and rear bumper were another 2k and modification that I didn't think I could do and have it look clean so I never went that far. I got a wrangler, with heavier duty axels than the KK, and the front of the commander, and that $2k got me a 4in lift, front and rear bumpers, rock rails and a winch! On road the commander was much nicer, as is the liberty, they don't get death wobble :) liberty parts aren't any cheaper I've wanted one since I sold the commander

[@Tellgio]

Awesome Roar fest! It did well for, what looks like, a stock set of legs

[@TheKKnut]

It has a 2.5" raised springs in the front and heavy duty 3" in the rear. Needs a better lift and heaps more work to be great off-road.

[@Tellgio]

Really? I would hardly of known. It did handle really well though. I've never been a Jeep sort of guy, but seeing some of the stuff I have seen lately, I think I should be.

[@coreylucchesi7415]

Where do you buy these bumpers!? All I find is rip offs charging WAY too much for a simple metal bumper. Ready to pull the mig out and make my own!

[@AussieFourWheelers]

This is a Uneek4x4 one.

[@tc1uscg65]

Was the KK using it's "traction control" or did it have limited slip/lockers?

[@AussieFourWheelers]

Traction control

[@jamesperson1822]

Stock differentials?!!

[@ramiay3619]

great driving great jeep... how much lift he has? kumho size plz

Thanks, 2.5” in the front and 3” at the rear, Khumos are 245/75 16.

[@AussieFourWheelers]

They are from Uneek4x4 Melbourne.

[@darlingpolanco3785]

What type of front bumper Is that

[@MrC1N3]

Have you disconnected the rear sway bar? That will help rear flex about a inch

[@TheKKnut]

No not yet but yeah that will make a heck of a difference, there are a few mods needed to make it great, especially a front locker.

[@0522777004]

Looks like mini-Commander. What kind of transmission/transfer case does it have?

[@TheKKnut]

Selec-Trac II with MP3022 transfer case, 42RLE transmission.

[@samueljsnead]

What size rim and tire are you using? Did you change the gears in the diffs?

Not sure on the rim details, but the tire size is 245/75R16 and stock gearing.

[@joaobentomarisapina2058]

Did you have any aditional bumpstops on rear? What springs on rear?

[@AussieFourWheelers]

They are 2" CRD STU springs (Kings). Not sure on the bump stops.

The Liberty in the US is the Cherokee in Aus?
