Jeep JL Metalcloak Lift Install 3.5" Game-Changer | Part 1

This video is Part 1 of 2. This video will get you familiar with installing a lift kit suspension and all it's components. The suspension I went with is the Metalcloak 3.5" Game-Changer Rock Sport edition with the long travel shocks. The suspension system is a straight forward install from the instruction that Metalcloak provides.
The suspension ride quality is superb! It rides and feels comfortable like as it was stock, even with bigger tires. The flex that you can get from the springs and shocks are amazing for greater articulation. I definitely recommend this suspension, and for the price, it's not to shabby!
For part 2 of this install video, here is the link:

I feel for you. It’s 90° in the garage and I’m doing the same thing.

[@This_is_My_Story]

I installed the same lift on my JLU but just ordered the front lower drop brackets to fine tune the overall handling.

[@saralou2220]

That's a lot of work brother. Wow

[@YeepLife]

It’s all fun. The beer got me going!

[@JustinJohnson13]

I'm about to do this same lift on mine. You definitely need to invest in some ratchet wrenches. It would make your life so much easier.

Are you in Hawaii ? I’m here now for 2 months we come for winters we travel all over the US off-roading

[@YeepLife]

No. I am in the mainland. Southern CA.

[@MrXxferrasxx]

The most import tool, is the beer 😂😂😂

[@YeepLife]

Of course! Or else there is no motivation to proceed. Ha.

[@YeepLife]

Ha. Yup, totally got that from Mr. Dufresne.

[@azscott31]

Shouldn't the front lower control arms be installed with the joint toward the read? Your driver side has the joint on the axelside

[@fishing_with_ryan2416]

Did you have any issues getting your upper control arms to line up?

[@YeepLife]

I dont recall. But i dont think so.

[@terraformingcats8175]

Should you not torque down the control arms until the Jeep is back under its own weight? The bushings will bind up.

[@Mike-iy7bk]

Read up on Metalcloak bushings.

[@LittleBastardG2]

This is what I am talking about..doing it yourself..great video

[@robertflotsem862]

Right on!

[@curtholwell]

I noticed you flipped the lower control arms, so the jam nuts are on the frame and not the axle, is this the correct orientation?

[@YeepLife]

Per instructions from MC, it is the correct orientation.

[@sangchu3008]

Do they stock lift kit or they have to order it

[@YeepLife]

They can order it for you, and arrive within a week. They don’t have readily available.
