    For me and my jeep, I will probably never get to the point where I will need a 3 link setup, but i do enjoy seeing people use and build their jeeps to the full potential.

    Hey Ben I do have the teraflex line anchors. I can say they have saved my brake lines from being pinched Offroad. Great give away.
    Extremely impressed with the channel. Keep it up boss!!

    I cant wait to see the Gladiator lifted I have mine with the 2.5 Mopar lift with the Fox shocks & the 1.5 Teraflex leveling kit that you recommended & I am VERY happy, with it. THANKS for sharing your knowledge.

    Thank you for explaining the Currie anti-rock sway bars I have been thinking about getting them and that clip that you should sealed the deal.

    • @ifp123
      @ifp123 4 года назад +3

      I still can not decided to get them or not. It was suggested to use the JKS quicker disconnects this past summer, but after 3 times of wheeling in the rain and/or freezing temps, I'm tired of going through the process of pulling out the "click pins", having a helper to rock the Jeep so I can slide the JKS quicker disco's off, zip tie the sway bar, go wheeling for 6 hours, coming back to the air-up stations, cutting off the zip ties, wiping dirt and mud off the mounting posts, then putting the JKS Quick-disco's back on. Also, if I run with only the drivers-side off, I've noticed the "click pins" on the passenger' side have become bent. --well, hell. I'm going with the Curie Anti's in spring.

    @cole33333333 4 года назад

    I like the closing video with Four Peaks in the back ground. I did help a friend raise his rear control arm brackets on the axle. It improved his down travel. I'm not sure on the ride. He said it was better but I have not yet went for a ride. he moved them up about a 1 1/4" plus shorten the control arm about 3/8".

  • @brucemartin835
    @brucemartin835 4 года назад

    Another awesome video 👍. I’ve watched your channel grow, and I love that you and Cassie have kept true to your original vision of the channel. Other channels have grown and are now more about product and manufacturers endorsements then helping others in the Jeep community. Thank you and keep up the great work. Someone already guessed Rough Country so I will go with Rubicon Express as the kit

    Rock Krawler!!! Just a guess. I went with the falcon 3.3 shocks with the Metalcloak dual rate 4.5 in coil springs. Took it up to Topps mountain Jeep trails. Not too hard of trails and got to rip it a little so I got to try the adjustable shocks out for different applications and loved them. Couldn’t believe the difference between setting 1 and 3. Went from super responsive stiff setting while hitting about 30 on the trail to super soft like I was floating on a cloud. Ha anyway love the set up and I think I’ll go with the Metalcloak control arms next

    Thanks for the overview. I just had the MC 4.5 lift with the Teraflex Falcon 3.3 shocks installed on my '16 JKU. I am loving it planning on getting it offroad first part of next month. i definitely feel the difference of the dual rate springs over my Mopar 2" lift with Fox shocks on the road. I will have to go back and look at what skids you are running to protect the Falcon rear shocks. I have the Rock Hard skids undeer the rear lower control arms and feel the falcon rear shocks are looking exposed.

    @jakobwest4811 4 года назад

    Been waiting to see how you liked the whole setup. I really want the antirocks. I've been riding without a front seat bar for months and haven't really had a problem on road. I hate having to disco and didn't really want to pay for quick discos when I'll eventually get antirocks. I also definitely want a 3 link, but I definitely want to learn to weld first and do it myself.

  • @krashnpa
    @krashnpa 4 года назад +1

    I really like the stability my anti-rock brings, especially off-camber-butt-pucker situations, but not sure that really keeps the front end from unloading when climbing straight up. Probably really depends on what I am climbing. My guess is RK this time on the Gladiator, unless Teraflex came out with something for you to test out.

      @reesegoetz134 4 года назад

      I bought my TJ stock 2 years ago and have rebuilt it from the ground up. Its a scary task at first, but now I am more happy with it than ever. The best part is, I know EXACTLY what is on it. I ended up doing a metalcloak long arm kit on 35's and rebuilt some junkyard axles and swapped them in (as well as CV drive shaft and SYE kit). I had no idea where to start either and I didn't want to mess up my jeep. I found out that going with quality parts is the way to go. Good luck!
