Yep, my first love is actually Jeeps. I had a 1980 CJ5 (360 V8, t18, f/r lockers, 4.56 gears, 35" Boggers) and an XJ. My buddy you saw in the video has had 2 CJ7's and now the JK. Toys are fun!

@@ScrufsGarage Most definitely. I had an FJ40 for 15 years it was also on 35" boggers. Had one Toyota Mini truck (pre tacoma). Currently have an 88 Samurai on 33s and now we just picked up a new Jeep Gladiator. :)

MRBLACK947 Nice! How do you like the Gladiator?? I’ve been lusting over one for a while now.

@@ScrufsGarage It has exceeded our expectations in every way. It's more refined than a JK but yet not too car like IMO. It rides extremely well for solid axles. We got the Max Tow package as we will be towing a small 22 foot camper with it a handful of times per year. It was between gladiator and the new Ranger. I'm not a Dodge guy at all but the Gladiator won over the Ford for us. My biggest bummer right now is I want to mod the hell out of it but I can't do much because we will be towing with it. ;) Already have done 1.5 inches in the front 3/4 inch on the rear. Fox Shocks, 34 inch tires. New front bumper. Few more things to come.

Excellent video man! So happy I found this video my mammoth kit will be here tomorrow from ET and this helps a lot. I did notice you didn't have to undo the front track bar¿ Did your friend have to get an alignment after?
@ScrufsGarage4 жыл бұрын
Glad to hear the video was helpful. In this case, the alignment wasn't needed. On a solid front axle, a lift has no impact on the toe setting (there's no change in the length of the tie rod connecting the steering knuckles). Camber isn't adjustable. And the caster is only adjustable if you change the control arms (or use drop brackets). If your steering wheel isn't centered, you can simply loosen the adjuster on the drag link and twist to lengthen/shorten and get your steering wheel centered. (won't impact your toe spec).

Hey im interested in these but ive noticed a couple of reviews about problems with the bushings on the new link arms. Have you had issues?

You didn't have to replace back sway bar endlinks??? Just the Front? why not the back?
@ScrufsGarage3 ай бұрын
For just a 1" lift in the rear, a longer end link isn't really needed.

Looks like spacer lift was installed 2years now. Any issues for longer term? Thanks for video!

After adding this lift did you have any issues? Did you add longer shocks etc..thank you!!
@ScrufsGarage4 жыл бұрын
No issues at all. My buddy got in it the next morning and drove from NC to NJ. Did not install longer shocks at this time; might in the future. But for normal driving and light off-roading, shock length has not been an issue.

Scruf's Garage ok, thank you for responding so quickly!! I apologize it and love your channel.

Can you install sway bar disconnects after this type of lift and be fine disconnecting before hitting a trail?
