If I ever have a garage that I can do the stuff you do, it feels great knowing I have your rolodex of videos to go through when its time to upgrade. Way to make it look easy, even when I know its not! Keep it up!👍👍👍
FYI as of August 2023 the front control arm brackets have changed such that an exhaust loop delete kit is required for the driver's side front lower control arm to have clearance to travel. Also, the bracket is a bit difficult to install on the passenger side. On one hand, you don't have to weld the crush sleeve, but you *might* have to drop the fuel tank to bolt the control arm bracket to the transmission crossmember. I didn't have to drop fuel tank, and ended up being able to crowfoot the bolt from the front and tightened with a swivel from the back on the outer crossmember bolt. All that said your video is what helped me to decide on the same lift. I have 2015 2-door Black 6MT and have the same suspension as you (except 3.5", fox shocks, and no Db3 s in back because I run 35s). If I knew how to make a good video I would share the differences. At any rate thank you so much again Jason
I appreciate you really are doing this out of your garage. You probably have a slightly better set up than the average enthusiast, having a welder and plasma cutter, but you do an excellent job making this seem attainable by anyone. Thanks for the content!
I really dig hearing this level of appreciation... means a lot because I put a lot of effort into showing that average skill and ability can overcome most obstacles with some patience and perseverance. Thank you!
Your excitement for your work is captivating! I love watching you! I love how you explain everything and make is understandable for anyone who watches! You show the whole install and I love that! You keep it light and fun! I just love watching your Jeep builds! You are my inspiration to build my Jeep one day! Thank you!
This was what I’ve been waiting for!! I have 1 more payment to go. Metalcloak is by far the best bang for your buck. 1st time ever seeing what I needed to see. My mind is made up. 4.5 lock n load all the way!🇺🇸
Howdy! I can't even explain how good this suspension system is. On the road and around town, the Jeep feels like driving a car and I haven't even begun to see how much more capable it is off road.
Dude, you make every install look so easy. Since you are taking subscribers recommendations, I usually give every Metalcloak part a good coat of clear to preserve that zinc gold longer prior to installation. Thanks for taking time to do this install.
Hey Jeepin Jason.. you look like your having too much fun! LOL. You keep taking your rig to the next level. My JK can’t keep up any more.. thanks a lot for taking us on the journey with you.
you are amazing. I’ll be doing this years to come. One of my goals, to do my own build, my self, maybe help from my dad, fam, and friends. Thanks for sharing.
Yep, I had rubicon express metal on metal, but they had a harsh ride and the joints needed greasing often. After two years with them 3 of the joints failed and so I went with Metalcload duroflex and what a difference, a smooth ride, excellent articulation, steers perfect and no greasing!
I went to sub after you located that hole THEN drilled it, the right way. Realized I was already subbed. Your attention to detail is impressive. Good work brother!
Excellent str8 forward video AE! SOOOOOOOenvious of your suspension system. Looks absolutely amazing. And is definitely a head turner for how it looks. You have a great holiday season. And Trail Oooooon!
AHAHA!!!! man I was just looking to put 37s on my JKU and saw your FIRST video where you crammed them on with no lift.... I immediately had to jump to your channel and see whats going on.....4 years later your Jeep has GROWN!!!!! Im also looking at doing long arms with the 37s, but at the same time!!!
That's the smart way of doing it! I've been so happy with the long arm kit so far. Even just putting several hundreds of miles around Los Angeles it has proven to be better than I could've imagined. Off road improvement was the given but how great this thing is for everything else is amazing.
Its great to watch and learn from your RUclips and watch you do it yourself is a great help to others. I have always enjoyed working on my own 88YJ and now we bought a 2017 JK Unlimited and have started on it. No lift yet. Want to make sure it still fits in standard garage.
this vid was awesome as always you do work like I would do it! I don't have a Jeep but I love your channel! I wish there was,a channel like this for Ford F150s like mine!
Finally ! I have been waiting i just knew this was your next step ! I cant believe the only welding needed is those spacers correct ? The welding is what originally scared me away but if that's the only welding I'm pulling the trigger
bolt on long arm kit?! YES PLEASE!!! Thanks for all the great videos. I kinda feel bad because i like that you're still kind of a small channel and it feels more personal and i like reading/seeing you respond to comments but i know you should have 100 times more subs and i should tell everyone about you but then there would be more people here and it wouldnt feel the same way. It's a real moral dilemma. :))
HA! This is a funny dilemma... I'm just happy and thankful to be able to create the content at this point and interactions like this are what it's all about. Thanks for being here!
@@AutoEdits yes my friend looking forward to add some cool stuff to my old 07 soon 😉. Great video love the new suspension feel. You also make it with some of the best taste in the RUclips!
Great video Thank you for the content. I reviewed and read the instruction for this kit for my TJ and it requires a little more welding according to the instructions. Thanks again for the detail.
I am waaaaayyyyyy below an average weekend mechanic and I love your videos. always very informative and I learn something new. We are gonna get long arms! Say hi to Pinto please!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻, I have be running the 2.5 Metalcloak Game changer lift on a 2012 2dr JKR for the last 8 yrs and love it! Loading it down with overland "gear" I had to put new 4.5 springs in the back where the majority of the load was and 3.5 in the front to level it out . So this was pretty interesting!
Ok great Just installed my skid plates from metalcloak Just didn't know if it worked with the long arm kit for me in the future Good to know I can have both Thanks
Your a mad man ha ha! In your video looked like the rear driver brake line was close to your tire, I'm sure your on it! Just In case you didn't see it I threw it out there...I got to say I learn some thing new in every video thank you so much for that happy holidays man!
Definitely not as high tech as 4 link long arms but WAY easier to install and WAY better than the mid length arms. I was legit "over the moon" happy on that test drive part of the video because the thing felt amazing already so I know with some tweaking it's going anywhere I aim it!
Great video! I’ve watched this video at least 3 or 4 times. You do a great job explaining the installation. I have the same kit still in boxes, waiting for a long weekend to install. How long brake lines did you go with?
Awesome, thank you! I don't remember off hand but the longer of the options on the metalcloak site and they work great. Take your time and have fun with the install... remember to measure before and after!
Love the progress man! I was just wondering what length you started at on your rear arms with the DB3 brackets...I am really thinking about doing this.
Such a great video and lots of info. Keep them coming!!! Also I see u used semi-gloss paint on the frame. What brand did u use cause it looked like factory.
Thanks! In this video I used the Duplicor semi-gloss black... works pretty good but I'm going to try Steel it products soon and see if they last longer.
Great video Jason!! Can I be cheeky and see if I could blag an Auto Edits sticker for my car? Im a big fan and this gal loves your upgrades and Pinto. You aint too bad yourself! love Joanne x
It's going to be fine... I'm not worried at all and don't actually see anything needing to be trimmed but shouldn't be a big deal considering what I just went through to install the lift.
@@AutoEdits awesome, I’m also curious what you decide on a rear housing/axle combination. Sixties would be nice but I just bought new beadlocks, 5X5. I’ll definitely be following along as usual
I love my 4.5 lock n load system on my 2 door. I seem to have issues with my front arms tweaking in/out so they aren’t always level. Curious to see if you have the same issues in the future and your fix to that.
I just wanted to express a serious safety concern, the pedestal fan in your garage doesn’t have a shroud and you could experience a nasty bruise…obviously I’m joking, I love the channel, unassuming and to the point good stuff, and Pinto. I’m glad I found you.
Hey I just installed my 4.5 LNL, love it! Just had a quick question, do you drive that thing unlocked on the road if so how does it handle, Or is that something you only want to have unlocked while off-road?
My understanding is only unlock it off road to keep the axle more stable under heavy braking on the street. I haven't ever unlocked it yet... looking forward to testing it out next week!
Cool job u may want to relocate the rear sway bar back a bit move the bracket back front hole to back hole and drill new one for rear and get a insert for the back bolt much smoother no rubbing !
Well after watching your video about six times, I decided to tackle this one, so I did but I should had watch the video ten times, few things here and there, took me a total of 31 hours to complete and there was plenty of ddakjffgkdfakjksfkj but all set and done. thanks for your videos, always looking forward to see what are you coming up with next.
Older video but I was wondering if you wish you went with MC's long arm rear or are you still happy with the DB3 brackets? I'm at that cross-roads now. Thanks so much for your how-to videos, I refer back to them again and again!
The DB3 is such a simple install and offer so much improvement for over the road driving that it's easy to say I'm still VERY happy with that choice. If I were building it again, I would choose the long arm only because it is overall the right answer but something dramatic would have to change in how often I do hard wheeling to justify making the change at this point. Hope that helps.
@@AutoEdits you are as anal as I am about painting stuff before installing over it and making sure holes are drilled perfectly... I get anxiety when I watch people install parts over dried up mud or paint stuff without cleaning it with thinner first and priming it. Are you a virgo too? Love the direction your Jeep has taken and look forward to that other build you mentioned.
If I ever have a garage that I can do the stuff you do, it feels great knowing I have your rolodex of videos to go through when its time to upgrade.
Way to make it look easy, even when I know its not! Keep it up!👍👍👍

I'm about 2yrs behind you on your build.
Awesome, thank you! This is hard work and gets expensive fast so just make a plan and stay focused!!!
I love my 4.5 lock n load suspension. I was on the fence with the game changer or lock n load, so far everything has been great. Keep up the videos
Thanks for sharing... how long have you been running yours?
Your Jeep is top notch and the build is so clean! cant wait to see more. I love the time and effort you take in each step. we share a level of OCD

That is a really good idea! Never would’ve thought of that. Thanks so much!
Clearing that cool zinc would be a great idea 🤘
Yea , I’m watching it again. 2 more months and I’ll have enough saved to take her to the shop. Woo goo!!

Can’t go wrong with Metalcloak and their super quiet duroflex joint. 👍🏻
I agree... major highlight of the system for me!

Great video. Jeep looks fantastic. Can’t wait for the test and tune.
You and me both!
Pinto and Reed are pretty cool. It's those little moments. That new front articulation looks really good, at 30:13.

is a super 44 wider than the dana 44?
I like your toolbox buddy trick on the frame, but here inWest Virginia we have to use Fluid Film or we wont have a frame after a few winters 🤣

I get anxiety when I watch people install parts over dried up mud or paint stuff without cleaning it with thinner first and priming it. Are you a virgo too? Love the direction your Jeep has taken and look forward to that other build you mentioned.
