JUST installed this today on my Gladiator Willys. I don’t know shit from shinola about 4wheel drive components. I bought the kit a while back and have been procrastinating putting it on. I must have watched this video a hundred times over the past 8 months😂 1st: TAKE OFF THE FRONT BUMPER BEFORE YOU START! Makes things MUCH more easy to see. I’m getting ready to buy a new front bumper anyway so I figured why not. 2nd: It’s NOT as easy as this woman makes it look, unless maybe your jeep is new with no undercarriage dirt and things easily unplug and you have a car lift and poles. 3rd: Those damn bump stop bolts SUCK to tighten up!!! I finally got them but it took me a very long time. 4th: That damn track bar is a pain in the ass to re-install!!! I tried doing the job without removing it but when I had to tighten up the bump stop nut it was in the way. All that being said, I did this job in my garage with a 4 ton jack and 2 6 ton jack stands. I did this 100% alone with ZERO help or even anyone standing around to give me advice. The total job, including removing the front bumper took me 8 hours. I started at 10am and finished around 6pm. I’m not the youngest of men, I don’t move around too fast anymore, and my body aches all over BUT, I DID IT ALL BY MYSELF 😎 So if there’s any people out there that have no idea what they are doing, watch the video over and over and then bite the bullet and go for it!!
A lift makes it much easier, but you win for doing it on the ground! I am very happy that this video helped!! Suspensions no joke, but now you're a pro!! -Merideth
Thanks for the video! Installing my 2.5" Leveling kit right now. It took me a couple of hours with a friend helping me. We didn't un-bolt the tracking arm. I did one side at a time.
Pep boys tried to say I need a track bar because the only one was tough to get in but after watching this doesn’t look like I need one?? You just have to have someone turn the wheel while you install correct? Stock track bar is fine?
Reinstalling the trackbar can be annoying to say the least but having someone available to turn the steering wheel to line up and wiggle the bolt in is SUPER helpful. This kit doesn't require one! Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
You definitely will have issues getting your suspension aligned properly without an adjustable track bar or front lower control arms. If you have room in your budget for them when installing this kit, I would absolutely recommend it!! -Zach
Does the 2.5” leveling kit come with the Poly spacers or did that get replaced with the metal spacers? On the website it shows the metal spacers instead of the Poly spacers shown on this video. Would rather prefer the Poly version. Thanks
Its poly with this level kit. I believe the RC lift kit spacers are metal. I have this level kit and its poly. Its probably the best level kit for the price on the market. Im very happy with mine. Added .75” to rear too
What torque numbers. For the swaybar links. And how people its able to put the nut for the bumpstop extender. On the passenger side. Its a nightmare. I could not
A set of lower control arm geometry correction brackets or new adjustable front lower control arms could help out! I'd also advise checking that the tires are properly mounted and balanced, or not over-inflated. Feel free to give us a call and we'll be happy to help! -Zach
Mostly because this is more of a front leveling kit than a whole front/rear lift kit. By lifting the front of this Gladiator 2" its now level front and rear! -Zach
Nothing! This is more of a leveling kit with extra pieces like the bump stop spacers and extended swaybar links you saw. The rear is staying as-is. After install this truck is completely level. -Zach
Not sure who you are but you should contact ROUGH COUNTRY to do videos for them because their directions are as bad as chinese instructions and they have been copied so many times you cant even read them much less understand them! AWESOME JOB on the video!

Thanks for watching! We're more than happy to help! -Zach
Awesome way to do it. Did you need a alignment?
@user-og6nm9ro6c no sir, not with 2.5" lift. But I have a 6.5" now with 38's. I had to get an alignment with my current lift.
Girls are doing it. Can't wait to do mine now... thanks again
Thanks for watching, Kerri! We appreciate it! -Zach

Great video, but I have to ask doesn’t it throw off the thrust angle without relocating the track/panhard bar?

Why did your bump stop bolt stick up higher than the bump stop ????

35s are sweet

Try offset box wrench.
You ladies ROCK damn!! Wrenching it up!!
Thanks for watching, Ashe! -Zach
A friend just did this, now his steering is terrible, and it's all over the road, even after the alignment.

What about the rear? Is it just throwing spacer in the rear?
This kit is mainly to level the front with the rear - you can buy a kit that has a rear lift block included if you want to lift that too! -Zach
Is there a video of the a 2in spring lift not spacer ?
Not yet! Stay tuned!
Does work Jeep gladiator Mojave ?
AEV 2.0 spacer lift kit for the Mojave
specifically for the Mojave 😊
Thanks
What about rear axle?? Or it stay how it is
The rear axle is untouched with this kit!
You have to get it aligned?
It is always highly recommend getting an alignment after any sort of lift or leveling kit is installed. -Zach
Why she didn’t do the back tires ??
Mostly because this is more of a front leveling kit than a whole front/rear lift kit. By lifting the front of this Gladiator 2" its now level front and rear! -Zach
What are you doing on the back? Is it leveled out with just doing the front bumpers or does sit the back lower now?
Nothing! This is more of a leveling kit with extra pieces like the bump stop spacers and extended swaybar links you saw. The rear is staying as-is. After install this truck is completely level. -Zach
What??? Raise the front 2.5" and not even bring to the back?
Jesus I’m so happy you got rid of the annoying music.
Kit is $295 now 8/2022 😳
Sorry my friend! Hopefully it will go on sale soon. Thanks for watching!
How bad does this mess with the pinion angles
She said nipples! Huh huh !

Sounds like AmericanMuscle wrote the script
The cadence is spot on!
Why does RC tell you to disconnect the front driveshaft?
