    The way the Cherokee XJ handles those challenging terrains is a testament to its engineering. Jeep heritage at its finest.

    This is the best video yet, I was debating on a 4.5 or 6.5 long arm but I think I might just go with the 4.5!

    I played without sound, listen to the first record of Miles Davis, if this car it's an American original, Miles will be a perfect companion to drive it. The video it's impressive, what a wonderful job you did there guys, just beautiful. I own a 2000 xj, I'm in love with it, it's like a toy, but real.

      how are rough country lifts compared to skyjacker, fabtech, bds, etc. I'm planning on getting one on a silverado 2500. Is it worth the money if i do very minimal off road, mainly going to hunting camp stuff nothing to serious, or should i opt out get get the higher option kits? Also how is the ride quality compared to other kits on trucks?

      This Jeep has an 8.25 rear axle and Dana 30 front. No Dana 35 here thankfully.

    Pretty sure they installed the shocks upside down. Jeep looks good either way👍

    • @DrivingLine
      @DrivingLine  7 лет назад

      The shocks can only go on one way in the front. They are also correct out back per the instructions. Thanks for viewing!

    • @kdigiacomo
      @kdigiacomo 6 лет назад +1

      Shocks are not upside down. Shocks are made so that they can be mounted inverted this way. Most all performance shocks are mounted with the body of the shock mounted to the vehicle, not the axle.

    how much do this tires stick out i want to run 33s with my 4.5" lift

    • @DrivingLine
      @DrivingLine  7 лет назад +1

      At 4.5 inches, you'll need to do some fender and front bumper trimming as the tires stick out from the fenders a fair amount.

    • @albertort1

      Driving Line do you have any pictures of the front i would like to see how much they stick out

    What’s the difference between the 4.5 Long arm and the 4.5 x series by rough country

    • @4-WHEEL-DRIVE
      @4-WHEEL-DRIVE 5 лет назад

      i think the x series have brake hoses and the other one don't have any

    • @BackcountryBrooks

    did you have to regear to run 33s

    • @DrivingLine
      @DrivingLine  7 лет назад

      The owner hasn't re-geared, but it's not a bad idea. He's working on some other upgrades before he goes into the axles.

    Anybody know a rough estimate on what this costs installed? I know prices will vary but just a ballpark figure

    • @Sn95MoneyPit
      @Sn95MoneyPit 6 лет назад +1

      Most shops around here will charge the same on the install as what you pay for the parts, 2500-3k total with a few steering upgrades, but its a very simple at home weekend job for anyone with a little common sense

    • @agent0444
      @agent0444 6 лет назад

      Do it your self . not hard just time consuming if it's your first time . You'll have 3k in parts easy

    • @codycampbell2167
      @codycampbell2167 4 года назад

      The long arm lift at 4.5 from rough country is only 1300 unless you upgrade your steering. And the slip yoke eliminator is only about 300
