Installing a 2.5" Lift on a Wrangler! 

incredible Justin... I will never again believe guys do this in their driveways on these older TJs..... :-)

Great job Justin!!!! Glad you had patience to show how to do it properly so folks might not get discouraged about doing these kinda jobs,my hat is off to you!!!! Keep up the good tutorials on the the Jeeps.

I bought a 2000 Wrangler 2 years ago. And i live in the mid-Atlantic area. That being said, even though i inspected it pretty well, the combination of my inexperience and where i live allowed some rust that i missed while inspecting to appear. drivers side rear control arm area, and passenger side front control arm area. I dropped the fuel tank and went to work on the rear control arm frame repair. Cut off all of the pieces and cleaned out as much crap from the inside of the frame as i could. Had to drill out and re-tap all the upper shock mount locations. Once i had the frame and repair piece prepped, i had a friend who is a welder, install the piece. I decided at that time to do a lift as well. Since it's not my daily, but a toy, i didn't mind spending the time on my back in the garage working on the various things. As a matter of fact, it feels good to continue to work on, maintain, and preserve the last of the "Jeeps".

I think in this particular case, a spring compressor would be safer to use rather than using a bottle jack. IDK, seems kinda sketchy.

Looks like you have a full time job just on jeeps

Put new rough country shocks on my 98 tj and went with the t bar eliminator kit. Pain in the ass but didn’t have to drop the tank.

Sure wish you guys were closer to me I'd let you do my work on my Jeep you guys do great work I enjoy your videos if I has a left and knew how to weld I do it myself thanks for the videos I enjoy watching them

yeah, love the Jeep video's

Question: When doing a lift kit, how much lift will require a slip yoke eliminator on the transfer case? Your videos are the best on RU-vid for TJ owners. Thanks for the great education!

Hi From Vermont

Another great video, learning a ton as I mentioned on another video!

Why no harbor freight spring compressors? Great job love all the info!!

do you recommend a transfer case drop kit after this 2.5" lift is installed? or perhaps a motor mount lift to compensate for the drive shaft angle?

Why not use a Spring compressor?

What did this job cost

How much you charge for frame damage and location

I want your job
