In this episode of building the cheap off-roader, we fit a 2"/2.5" Rough Country Lift Kit! It took a while to get here from the states but it's finally here and now fitted on the Cherokee! Hopefully with this lift kit we can now look into the possibility of putting bigger tyres on it too!!
Lift kit: www.ebay.co.uk...
We also get round to fitting a winch and i show you how to fit a universal snorkel to your car. I'm still reasonably new to documenting and making videos of the work I do so if i've missed something, leave a comment and i will reply as soon as possible!

I have a lifted jeep liberty, you basically have to get offroad / re engineered upper control arms. Also I recommend getting new moog lower ball joints as well

@PeakPatrick 3 года назад

How come you had to change the upper control arms?

Looks great! I'm building a liberty right now, I'm looking forward to seeing the winch installation and the universal snorkel. I'm not paying $500 for the custom fit snorkel.

@PeakPatrick 3 года назад

I think we payed around 150 for the snorkel so its worth the extra fitting to save a bit ✌

We should have watched this video before we started. We spend all day trying to fit the wish bone back in the stock location. We will try the trick you used to get it back in place.

@svendolufsen849 2 года назад

I ran a lift kit for a few years. It causes front end components to wear excessively fast. Front bushings, CV axle, upper and lower ball joints. My advice is upgrade tire size and hammer the metal and cut the fender as needed to fit the tires. It will give about 1.5" of lift

@yochanontheseeker1942 2 года назад

What size wheels and tires were able to go up to? I bought some 20” wheels w 31” tires on them and installed a 2.5” spacers for front and 2” spacers for rear and still rubbing, now cutting a bit of the wheel well and maybe putting on some 1.5” wheel spacers to see if that helps w front hard turn rubbing.

Bro i have the same jeep i wana know dose this car has diff locks ? And if they have while going on desert if we disable the abs would it work ?

@PeakPatrick 3 года назад

I don't think the KJ's came with locking diffs however there are locking products out there that you can fit to make it a locking diff. And I've never taken it on sand or a desert so I'm not too sure on that one!

How was the steering afterwards? I put in a lift and my Steering was quite dodgy.

Felt pretty similar actually, had alignment done too so could've made a difference

did you do anything to prevent camber or did the wheels just naturally stay straight

Had to get the tracking and alignment sorted at the garage, but you can still drive without getting it done 👍

@PeakPatrick 3 года назад

@benwood1777 Год назад

It's called a Liberty in the USA/Canada, and I think called the Cherokee in some parts of Europe. We have a different Cherokee over here as well, but the liberty was meant to be a replacement for the Cherokee, hence why they share the name, except the Cherokee was never actually discontinued in the end, at least in north America. Not sure if they do offer the Cherokee in EU, especially now that the Liberty has been discontinued.
