[@Nobikedave]

I’m loving it so far! Great instructional video too!

[@TurfTavernX]

These videos are very well done, great job to everyone at Northridge Nation for sharing

[@northridgenation]

Thanks Ian!

[@travisbaird9243]

Awesome video!

[@LTUSATV]

Love the color of the JT.

[@MikeCurtis7663]

You forgot one thing, my name on the title! :D Thank you for the great videos! I got a few more entries this week!

[@Hay-tn6hz]

Thanks for your explanations while doing the install. Great video.

[@northridgenation]

Glad it was helpful!

Great video!!!

[@northridgenation]

Glad you liked it, thanks for the visit!

[@jjdog1978]

like this so far!!

[@BushcraftExploration]

Such a clean life

[@CrunchEnhancer]

I would never attempt to install that bad boy myself, would love to help but I don't know if I could do it

[@chrisholden7575]

What did you torque the front lower arms to?

[@4lowjt]

do you need control arm drop brackets and rear track bar relocation brackets for the EVO 2.5" lift if you have adjustable control arms and track bar ?

[@northridgenation]

Are they absolutely necessary with a 2.5" lift? No. Do we recommend them? Yes. It's all about the geometry. The EVO geometry brackets drop the control arms by 2.5". That would be a perfect match for your 2.5" of lift and get the front suspension back to the factory specs. Adjustable control arms will allow you to get the caster back to stock, but does not correct the changes to the front suspension roll center.

[@redneck6pack]

This is the same exact lift kit I had picked out for my gladiator

[@northridgenation]

We like it a lot.

[@w00p1g9]

@@northridgenation how does it ride?

[@northridgenation]

@@w00p1g9 It rides very nice. The winner of this truck has been taking it all over the US wheeling and says the suspension works great off road and rides great on road. That is with the Fox 2.5 shocks we added a little later: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmfdhH-oiayaqtU

[@lfliger]

question, Do you get entries every time you make a purchase since entering for the drawing?

[@northridgenation]

Yes, you get one entry for every $25.00 spent and two entries for every $25.00 spent on giveaway participating manufacturers. Official rules here: certified.promotrust.com/Northridge4x4/GladiatorJeepGiveaway/rules/

[@AdulrahmanKhaiwi]

Another question, wonder why not installed the King Shocks EVO specs that are offered with this kit?

[@northridgenation]

We offer that kit in many different packages with King, Fox and even no shocks at all if you want to try something different: www.northridge4x4.com/search?q=evo+4.5in+kit+enforcer+overland+stage+4

[@rd9865]

Is this lift kit designed specifically for overlanding? I plan on installing a bed rack and RTT. I want to make sure that this lift will support the weight and also not require me to do a drive shaft replacement or axel swap. I have the JT Rubicon if that helps

[@northridgenation]

This lift will work very good for overlanding.

[@Fit4Life921]

05:30 -- i ordered 4.5 HD evo springs and I received two identical coils: 600167 -- is it different for the HD vs plush ride coil springs?

[@northridgenation]

The plush ride have two different coils, the HD have the same coils L to R.

[@owenage69]

I don't understand. What rear shocks did you use? I can't find any Fox racing shocks for the JT in the rear.

[@northridgenation]

More info in an upcoming video...stay tuned.

[@northridgenation]

The Fox 2.5 rear shocks are still in production, we got a set early just for this build.

[@owenage69]

@@northridgenation That makes sense. Any idea on release?

[@northridgenation]

@@owenage69 Fox said end of March.

[@woof3598]

37 and 38, are you saying the trck well lean to one side ?

[@northridgenation]

Please be more specific with your question? Time stamp of the video part in question?

[@AdulrahmanKhaiwi]

I did not see the final measurements of the lift after a test drive. Did I miss that?

[@northridgenation]

We haven't done the test drive yet, that will come soon. Still lots more parts to get on this Gladiator.

[@AdulrahmanKhaiwi]

@@northridgenation Thank you, awaiting the updates.

[@gwoldy4]

And then we're gonna do it again when we put the UD60s on lmao

[@northridgenation]

LoL... a lot of these project end up like that.

[@guidryjoey8855]

Do you need to change out the front drive shaft at 4.5 inch lift

[@northridgenation]

Yes. The OE CV driveshaft binds at the CVs and the large diameter hits the crossmember.

[@guidryjoey8855]

@@northridgenation would a 3.5 be better for the stock cv

[@ychai2812]

How much the labor would be for installation?

[@tachikawa6013]

I would avoid EVO mfg because of their support and sponsorship of some pretty vile people. EVO lost my support and respect after I found out they support companies like wayalife.
