I bought this lift over black friday, installed it over the holidays, and finally got around to putting a video walk-through together. Feel free to check it out, and like/subscribe if you're into that sort of thing. Feel free to ask any questions. I'll have an impressions/review video up in the near future.

Great video thx for sharing, would love to hear how you like it
Appreciate it!

It took me quite a while to edit/post the video, so I've had the kit on for about a month now. I'm out of town for work, so it has been 100% on road, but so far I'm very pleased with the performance. On-road manners are *much* improved, and body roll has been essentially eliminated--even with the 1000+ extra pounds that I've added to the vehicle. I'll have a review video up once I have a chance to get it off road. I'm confident it'll do well.

Fantastic video. I’m considering tackling this project in the near future. How has the 2.5 settled from the original 4” you finished with after a month of driving? Did you already do drive shafts or are you planning to? Anything you would do differently after this install?

I think it ended up settling to just over 3" on all 4 corners. I really like the look and function. I've since upgraded to 37s, and there is still plenty of space.

I haven't done driveshafts and don't intend to unless I notice an issue. My setup with 37s now is actually lighter than my 35s were by 11 lb on each wheel, so I think that change helped. It rides/performs better now than it did at stock height on 35s!

That’s the path I’m on. How on earth did you “save weight” on 37s? What is your wheel/tire combo

I went from chunky load E tires, to a more suitable load C tire. Load C is plenty for Jeeps. I'm not bashing mine against jagged rocks or towing heavy regularly, so I really didn't need Es. Cs brought weight down and gave me a noticeably more comfortable ride.
