THE LIFT // EVO MFG 2.5" Enforcer Overland Lift w/ KING 2.5" Shocks + 35" Nitto Trail Grapplers MT

TrailNewbie has a whole new look! Recently I took the Jeep to Disciple Off Road and had them install an EVO MFG 2.5" Enforcer Overland Lift Stage 2 w/ EVO Spec KING 2.5" Remote Reservoir Shocks with Compression Adjusters. But that's not all, I also got 35" Nitto Trail Grapplers along with something unique for the wheels. This video will take you on a quick journey from day 1 to the recent work I had done. (Episode 9 - 4/10/21)

Nice story telling. Hope to see you on the trial some time. Solid drone flying also.

[@TrailNewbie]

Ya buddy! Soon! Is there a good 559 run coming soon?

[@MsRLWalker]

I’m a Jeep newbie too, got my JL Rubi 3 years ago and I LOVE it!! So many good memories and travels in it so far. Enjoy yours!!!

[@TrailNewbie]

Right on! Love to hear from a fellow newbie! 😃 Enjoy the Jeep and if you’re ever out in Cali, let me know and I can point you to some great trails!

Great video and choice of lift. 👍

[@TrailNewbie]

Ya, I’m super happy with how it all turned out - super clean look overall and very capable. 😁

[@JamesD837c]

Very tasteful look. I like your choice with the wheels too. Almost too nice to take offroad ;)

[@TrailNewbie]

Thanks! Going to get this off road soon!

[@airlinkssuspension5878]

Glad you made this. This is exactly what I wanted to do before I came across this. I bet you're ready for 37s now

[@TrailNewbie]

Right on! Ya, love it all the way around. 37” tires and some new wheels are highly likely. But down the road a bit! So glad you liked! 👊🏼😎

[@FaithKMerrill]

Sure wish I had a Jeep like that 😍

[@TrailNewbie]

You used to have that. AHHAHAHA

Hello, Love the jeep. I just bought a 2 door jl and was looking at this kit but not the reservoir shocks. I'm pretty close to disciples location, was it expensive to have them install it?

[@TrailNewbie]

Hi! I think on labor: Disciple Off Road is solid. And with that, comes (honestly) the absolute best customer service/expertise you'll ever see in this arena. Most shops just expect you to know exactly what you're looking for and are hard to communicate with. Jeremy @ Disciple will hand-hold you through the deal and keep you very informed. He texts, shoot, he'll message you through FB or IG. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed with him. I'm in no way sponsored or paid to advertise. He's become a buddy, and I know quality work when I see it! Hope it works out for you well!

[@harkerein]

What stage is this? Did you put the rear trackbar relocation bracket too?

[@TrailNewbie]

Hi! It’s a Stage 2 lift. 😊 I’m pretty sure we did do the rear track bar relocation bracket. I can check to be sure if you’d like from my buddy at Disciple Off Road.

[@retro93277]

Nice vid

[@TrailNewbie]

Thanks! I love the new lift! Just gotta go put it to good use now! 👊🏼

@@TrailNewbie yeah I am heading over to Jeremy to get some work done next week , been waiting for a while for parts . I am glad to see a happy with the outcome of their mods .

[@TrailNewbie]

He's great! Ya, parts are hard to come by right now - slow on the production side due to so many people wanting to 'get out'..!

[@pilotjt]

Did the Evo lift require you to use wheel spacers for the factory wheels?

[@TrailNewbie]

Hi! No, not required. I ran without wheel spacers for about a year, then I went ahead and added a set of 1 and 3/4 in Spidertrax spacers. Only issue without the spacers was just a little bit of rubbing on the front lower control arms when at max turn on the steering wheel. Overall, it’s doable without them. But, now that I have the spacers on, I like the look and overall feel much better. You can seen them in a video I just did a few weeks ago called The Rig. 😃 Thanks for reaching out!

[@pilotjt]

@@TrailNewbie Thx man! Good looking rig!

[@justthegoodlife]

What did the cost for the lift/shocks cost you? Nice build!

[@TrailNewbie]

Great question, this was the following kit: EVO-3012S2K-CompAdjuster EVO MFG JL 2.5" ENFORCER OVERLAND LIFT STAGE 2 W/ EVO SPEC KING 2.5" SHOCKS Adjustable Track Bars: NO Compression Adjusters: YES $4,002.17 It’s on the pricy side - I was given the green light for this from my wife because it was my 40th birthday (approx) so she told me to go all out. 🤣 Installation is not included in the cost above. Thanks for your comment and for reaching out!

[@georgea1463]

Just wondering, why didn’t you go with the 3.6?

[@TrailNewbie]

Hey George! Great question. At first I was like “3.6”, like 3.6 King Shocks?? Hahaha! Then it dawned on me. 3.6 vs 2.0 Turbo! 😂 Well, in all honesty, it wasn’t really a major decision on my end. A couple reasons: 1) the inventory was getting scarce when I bought the Jeep, and this one was exactly what I wanted, color and very FEW options. Few options was key for me. 2) I have a second car (daily driver) which is a Volvo XC90 and it has a 2.0 Supercharged + Turbo. So the 2.0 was not a foreign thought to me. Now: my thoughts/review... I really love it. Gas mileage is decent and the ‘zippiness’ off the line around town I like a lot. I’ve got nothing bad to say about the 3.6. It’s tried and true. The 2.0T should not be overlooked though. It’s been really great. Only bad part, the turbo whine is not my fave. But, it is what it is. 👊🏼👍🏻
