This was extremely helpful. To rely back to also wanted to mention the release cable for this seat which is the cable behind the seat. Which was stretched when I went to pull my seat apart. The riser was also completely snapped like the one in this video.
Metalcloak has had the lock and load for the JKs and JLs for for a few years now, it’s not new. Also nice to see you using Metalcloak and not Teraflex like everyone else from the Epic shop.
Hey Casey, just curious why you didn't do the Metal Cloak 4 link in the front? Issues with clearance? I heard it has better flex than the locked and loaded option.
Would be cool to meet up at EJS and do a comparison on the CTI ramp between the 3.5" GC and the Lock-in-Load. P.S - I'm still waiting for that 4-link rear from MC!
Casey just idea 💡 Demon on top 👹 make it look killer with drone shot's. I'm eventually getting Kraken for mine it's awesome system. Hi Maty ! Man that's awesome upgrades especially suspension best idea 💡 seen yet far better design.
I had no idea they cost that much…completely understand. Let’s hope the cost is reduced in the future. Looking forward to see how they perform long term
I love your channel. I have been a sub for a long time. I don't want to sound like an ass, but, I don't enjoy look at how much money I can throw into a project content. Remember, we don't have patrions..
I kindof agree. The Epic guys’ RUclips channels used to be about a bunch of regular guys out going on adventures in their Wranglers. Now they all have Gladiators that have been essentially scrapped except the body and turned into $250,000 rich-people toys. FAR beyond what a regular guy can afford. The LiteBrite channel went down this road as well, as another example, leaving the regular folks to view all these channels as “aspirational” instead of depicting real-world adventures. It’s sad. I have watched e and the other guys for years, but now it’s all about who can build the most expensive, outlandishly expensively-built rigs that only millionaires can afford, and very little actual off-roading. It was good while it lasted.
Ok. I'll buy another Jeep and do a modest build for ya 😁 when the stars align and you can make something like this happen you take the opportunity. I will also be getting back to wrenching on my JK shortly. I like building Jeeps and testing parts. Demon swap aside the Demonator has lots of parts and mods that apply to everyone.. but new Jeeps are nearly $100k here in Canada just to get started.
I have been a jeep guy since the 70 wagoneer was introduced. Had more jeeps than one can count in my life. Still would'nt own a new jeep. They got cheaply built over the decades and from 97 to present day they went plastic and overpriced. Not here to knock on jeeps just stating what i have seen over 50 years of jeeps. Good luck with the new build. Looking forward to seeing you on the trails
I prefer earlier edition my JK for wheeling but for long range adventures in varying conditions the new Jeeps, especially the Gladiator is really nice. I can't drive my JK for 16hrs straight like I can my JL.
I dig my metalcloak suspension!
So they're like a radius arm for the rear. Nice!

I’d love to see the difference in flex between locked and unlocked on the metal cloak trailer. Great video.
I'll do that at EJS at the CTI ramp

I specifically mentioned that in my video. This is brand new on JL and JT. 🙂
He said new on the JT, genius.

Finally a POV camera. Drives me bonkers watching you guys work with one hand. ;-)
Trust me it isn't easy working with 1 hand! lol I think the POV cam is here to day.
This is what you would call a radius arm in the front and your typical 4 link in the rear
16-18 mpg is unreal. nice.
Awesome! There is a place in Canada with no snow on the ground in winter☃
Oh just wait till next week 🤣
Maddy is pure class.
That other Demon Gladiator pales in comparison to what you have.
Thanks man!

I'll be announcing a schedule for moab on IG and community post here once I sort it out
That suspension would look great on a 392 !
Especially on a hydro blue
I agree!!
Omg I want that 392 Snazleberry!! 😮
It's a beauty
I'm sure the boys at epic are bummed you didn't get the Teraflex ST3 lift. It's treacherous!
Love my Rubicon Express super flex lift. Softest lift i have ever ran and 3 years no issues with it. Kinda spendy buy the ride quality is 👍
Nope, they love to try new stuff too before putting it on customers rigs.
Love the dirty POV cam.
Thanks!
If you flex it out on the CTI ramp, do one with it locked and one with it unlocked.
I will when I'm in moab
I think you failed to Jeep wave me in South Surrey lol. Great content!
I believe I missed a jeep that waved because I had a coffee in my hand sorry!
Pov cam is Great!
Casey you mentioned your day job, what kind of work do you do?
What made you opt for the lock n load over the long arm?
Haven't tried it. Wanted to try it.
When is the Aux switch install coming?
The video is done but I wanted to wait till zautomotive has it ready on their site so you guys can check it out
Where did you get your seats from? I'm looking to change my cloth seats
the team at WRD had a local upholstery shop do them
Nice I’ve been dying to see this
Too bad Canadian Jeeps have no warranty in the US. Not that there’s much left that would still be under warranty I guess :)
Amw builds are warrantied.
While you're at Epic you all talked to Ginger about the accuair system he sales it
He does?
What's the going price for a Demon JT from White Rock?
$250k+ cdn before the luxury taxes I believe depending how far you want to go. I'll cover a full price breakdown after Moab
Wow @Epic installs metal cloak now ?
If you talk really nice to the Ginger and feed him lots of Frappuccinos.
Casey just idea 💡 Demon on top 👹 make it look killer with drone shot's. I'm eventually getting Kraken for mine it's awesome system. Hi Maty ! Man that's awesome upgrades especially suspension best idea 💡 seen yet far better design.
I have a couple ideas ;)
@@Casey250 I can't wait. Hey got question for you. Kraken system will it work on JK ?
No it is for JL/JT only currently.
@@Casey250 ok thanks guess have look for another source thanks for replying.
Metal cloak game changer vs AEV 3.5 inch?
I have never used any AEV lifts so I cannot say.
Love it! 👍🏽
If I hit the lotto I definitely will drop by and grab that demon at white rock. Then hit up epic for a kraken. 🤣
I like this plan
I don’t know about the JL line, but they have had that lift kit for JK’s for years at least five years
They have had it for the TJ's too! I mention this in the video!
Hail can’t be good for the demonator
Neither will be me driving it to places I like to go lol
@@Casey250 that’s a shame
I prefer the POV in Your videos...
I have a pet peeve lol
Sorry
Same lol
Thanks!
What are your thoughts on portals?
Love the idea. Hate the price. 74weld said they are trying to bring the cost down. $25k usd is a non starter for me.
I had no idea they cost that much…completely understand. Let’s hope the cost is reduced in the future. Looking forward to see how they perform long term
How the heck can you afford all this stuff ?
Too much red? What about the seats? That’s too much red. Don’t like them. Love the Willy’s seats

Less you, more Jeep, would be cool. Halfway through the video and it’s still just you.
U going to paint the new parts? Or u leaving it that color.
Gold for sure!
