2 weeks ago we installed massive 38 inch Milestar Tires on Rocktrix rims on our STOCK Suspension Jeep TJ! • Our Jeep Computer DIED... . We showed the absolute largest size tire that fits on a stock height jeep tj, literally pushing the wheel well to its limit!
On Today's episode, we show you, step by step, how we installed our 4 inch dual rate SkyJacker Lift kit with M95 shocks completely in our garage with tools that are affordable. Our goal was to make a video to help walk you through the entire install process, as well as show you the order of how we installed each part, giving you the confidence to attempt the job yourself.

@terraforge_motorsports 4 года назад

You guys have a sweet TJ! I’m not here to bash on it but to provide some insight and advice to a fellow Jeeper. Some problems I can see that you guys may want to check into include: 1) Flex out the suspension and see what hits. Looks like you don’t have enough of a bump-stop for the tire size (especially for the rear). 2) The rear shocks are going to hit the spring perches when they’re fully compressed. Common TJ problem especially when adding a lift. You can get the shock relocation brackets for less then $50. 3) The skyjacker is a budget lift and a problem it doesn’t fix is the suspension geometry that results from raising the the frame away from the axle. As you go up in lift your wheelbase gets shorter. The skyjacker arms doesn’t correct this since they are the factory length. 4) For the future consider getting a set of adjustable control arms. This will really help set up better pinion angles and get your caster back into a factory spec. 5) Also when flexing out the Jeep check the length of brake lines. I didn’t see you guys swap them out within the video. Hope this helps and good luck on the build!!

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Appreciate this very much! We will test out some of these and try to fix them if they need fixing. We have a set of adjustable uppers ready to go on. The skyjacker arms were a bit longer than the factory arms, we didn't realize it until after we made the video. Cheers

@ernestochamorro1 6 месяцев назад

what's your opinion on the rought country 4 inch long arm lift. looking for something around this price range (1000-1800), this video was posted 3 years ago. I see some kits have added stuff.

@maggiepup3377 2 года назад

Had a similar lift. Won’t mention the company. When I changed out the fixed control arms for a full set of Metal Cloak Adjustable Control Arms I fell I love with the way my Jeep drove again.

@MarvinWafflehouse91 2 года назад

I just ordered all the Metal Cloak control arms , tie rod , drag link, and track bar for mine ….currently my 4 door JK is rocking side to side worse than my tj ever did… hoping it fixes my issue

@apexpredator_jku 4 года назад

This is my 1st time tuning in & I'll keep it 100%...I saw Skyjacker, pavement princess wheels and yet another Jeep with them dang Patagonias and I was quick to pass judgment & dismiss it as another mall crawler build channel & was gonna keep it moving...not that there's anything wrong with all that, just not my cup of tea but y'all charisma & chemistry stopped me from moving on. Then I skimmed through the rest of your content and realized it isn't what I'd initially thought. Seems like y'all have ran the Jeep Life gamut & I almost passed judgement based on perception. Good stuff, keep up the good work.

@tlalexander3 3 года назад

Man that looks awesome. I have a 1999 Jeep Wrangler TJ sport in the same color. Right now it only has a 2 inch lift and 31s. I'm trying to find some rubicon axles (4:10) so I can add a 4 inch lift to it eventually and 33s or 35s. It will be going to college part 2 (masters) with me. This Jeep really is special because my parents have owned it every since I was born. They actually brought me home from the hospital in it, so it is crazy to think that I'm driving it. It's also pretty cool that you are a school teacher. My mom is an 8th grade math teacher and my dad is a 9th grade history teacher. I currently am a math tutor at my mom's school for 7th and 8th grade. Previously, I worked at my undergrad university as an Organic Chemistry, Chem 111, 112 and an Oceanography lab TA. Now, I have a teaching assistantship at my next university where I am getting my MS in Biology. I really hope I can find those upgraded axles before I leave for graduate school though. The Jeep currently has 3:07 gears and they suck. This university is wayyy up in the mountains and the elevation difference results in a large power difference than where I currently live.

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Yeah, fortunately the dual rate springs keep things nice and stiff. We are planning on taking it to a fabricator and cutting the rear tub. Either that or a body lift. If we do a body lift it won't clear the garage lol!

@ItsMojoHQGaming 4 года назад

@@Garagecouple metalcloak makes a mod cut mounting plate for your exact problem. All you need after you buy it is a grinder or dremel to cut away the tub, you shouldn't need to pay anyone for any fab work. However, I understand not wanting to cut up your car if you don't have experience. It would be a pain to mess it up.

New to your channel next time on the front, remove the track bar all the way off and if you unbolt the lower control arm the axle will drop more and don't have to compress your springs.

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Are you on auto or manual? Ours doesn't feel that bad!

@robbie8931-x5k 4 года назад

Garage Couple it’s auto and the manuals do a better and somewhat more forgiving admittedly with bigger tires. I suspect it comes down to the type of area one daily drives. Here in the mountains regearing is needed and when offroad it gets our low crawl speeds back for the big rocks. Have a friend with a manual JLU on 35’s and looking at jumping to 37’s. His feeling is he will have to regear based on how the 35’s are doing but doesn’t hurt to try. But in the end, if it’s working then concentrate on other upgrades. Regearing isn’t cheap but if locker upgrades are needed, then it may be worth it at that time.

Raised my TJ 4 inches. My axles are way off. I cant figure it out. I hope and pray adjustable stabilizer solves the problem.

@raybates3119 3 года назад

You probably need adjustable track bars.

@kkim1177 3 года назад

@@raybates3119 had to get an adjustable track bar and upper and lower adjustable control arm.. I had to get bump stops and now currently regearing my TJ to 4.88. Just bought some wheel adapters, Gusset kit, axle truss, and ball joints.. just need to buy some front big brake kits and then I'll be ready for my 37's.. oh yea. I'm also buying those supermicrochips for some extra horsepower and torque.. damn this thing is work just to put some 37s on

@raybates3119 3 года назад

@@kkim1177 Yeah. I have a 4" Skyjacker lift on my 02 TJ and I only run 33's. It has the optional Dana 44 so it has 3.73 gears and the 33's seem at home there. I had 37's on my 2018 JL Rubcon with 4.10's and 4" lift. The lift was perfect and the gearing was around town but we put it back to stock and 35" Dick Cepek Extreme Terrain MT's. Unless you are going to off road a majority of the time, that factory Rubicon suspension is hard to beat.

Just picked up 2001 TJ with 3in lift. How much do i need to cut out of wheel wells if I put 38s on it

@Garagecouple 2 года назад

Only you would be able to make that call. Every jeep is different.

rear fenders? size and model ?

@acousteau6529 4 года назад

Cool videos! Can you tell me which jack you have to lift your Jeep so you can work on it? And is it aluminum?

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Yes! We got it from harbor freight

@gtowncasey111 4 года назад

That is the stock bump stock....it comes that way from Jeep. You were supposed to take that bolt out, add that spacer and reinstall a longer bolt. If you don’t have enough bumpstop your tires may rub.

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Our green tj doesn't have that bumpstop actually! If we added the extender on top of that extension it would be nearly touching with no flex

I’m just trying to help you so you aren’t spreading misinformation. Also, you are calling the washer on the front control arms a Cam. Most TJs didn’t come with cams from the factory, they came with washers like yours. The slots and horse shoes are there so cams can be added at a later time if needed

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Always appreciate the info! Our bump stop on our 2001 doesn't look like that! We assumed all the tjs were the same. As for the cam bolt, much appreciated!

@gtowncasey111 4 года назад

Garage Couple no problem, that’s the way it is on my 2000 and my 2005 that are sitting in the driveway right now. Are you sure someone didn’t modify your 2001? Possibly a shop that did the lift on that Jeep ?

@tonysmith5204 4 года назад

i noticed the yellow dot on your new tires isn't it suppose to align with the valve stem to aid in balancing the tire?

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

It is a start and then you dismount and remount until it balances

@MaverickXeo 4 года назад

17:00 If the jack was removed, you could probably lower the axle a LITTLE more and the spring would fit. That, or remove the lower control arm and it would fit no problems. I've done it so many times - I HATE spring compressors!

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Appreciate that! Yes. Spring compressors are awful!

@MaverickXeo 4 года назад

@@Garagecouple They are, haha. That said, I did do springs once with a pry bar.... that ended badly. I ended up crushing my thumb - thankfully it didn't break but I did lose my whole fingernail as a result. Springs are deadly, haha!

Thanks for the vid. I am going to get a 4" lift done, but I am not a DIY guy. So your vid let's me know about how much I should be paying to get it done. I love your vids, and keep up the good work. I am still interested in the rim you replaced. If it is 16" I'll gladly pay for it shipping and all. I am looking for a fifth wheel.

@Garagecouple 4 года назад

Hi! Thanks for the comment! It is a 16 inch rim, the moab rims which we hear are pretty hard to find. Id like to keep them as a complete set though..and shipping is pretty pricey
