Finally a youtuber with a WK, subbed!
More to come!
Nice Jeep! The stance is perfect. I have a 2010 WK with a hemi. I love it!
+BigAzz J thank ya!
Hey Brandon, Nice updates (y)...you are proud M3 owner ;) probably this video was before you got your M3. Keep posting!
One HUGE mod/upkeep deal that our Jeep WK's need is a supreme rotor/brake disc pad set that can dissipate all of that heat that causes the Jeep's to burn through brakes & rotors so much. I found a good complete kit online for $400 which includes all new calipers, slotted/drilled rotors for better heat dissipation & ceramic brake pads also, which are better for soaking up heat. This $400 Kit includes painted calipers I think too, red last time I looked. It's worth looking into. Too much weight & the constant braking after awhile, for Jeep's, it's unlike most cars, we gotta replace these things sooner than we would for another car.
KandN filter with either straight pipe or performance muffler. And a tune would be pretty awesome too
WK's are great Jeeps! I have 2 inch lift and the Rola basket also.
Gene Z WJ better
Notification squad checking in 🙌🏻
Love the Jeep, man 👍🏻
Roger that!!!
Brandon B red is how I'm going to leave you're girlfriends baby maker
Besides the obvious mods to do, there are other smaller tweaks to modify for more performance gains that you'll have to search around the net for to find out. I got them all saved on my hard-drive but have no where to post here to share. Anyway, good job.
Can you please give me the link on the exact lift kit you put on including the rough country spacers ? First time watching your vids definitely subscribing !
We just bought a ‘05 5.7 Hemi Limited - The drivers seat is also cracked like yours lol 😂 - up in Canada eh! I want a shorty antenna!
Hey Brandon, love the Jeep vids man. I have a 2010 WK with similar mods! Wondering what the intro song is?
You Jeep looks great and keeps improving. A good way to care for the leather part of those seats is to use a natural bristle brush and some saddle soap. You can find some by the shoe polish in Walmart for around $3. Just use a damp brush and wipe with a damp cloth, then use cream conditioner. I personally like the stuff made by Autoglym. You can usually find it on Amazon and a bottle will last the life of several cars. I would avoid the cheap stuff that's widely available like Lexol, as I personally find it useless, and short lived, protection wise. Also, you should be able to find a new drivers side seat that matches at a you-pull-it salvage yard for very little money. A leather repair shop can fix the bolster too if that's easier. That would make a great vid too. Hope you can use the info and best wishes... Almost forgot but odd as it may seem I also have a WK and an M3. :)
Great video! Do you have a link to that roof basket? Look nice. :)
I love your jeep and BMW
+RK Racing Co. thanks!
Clean bro cleeeeeeeean! 👌
thanks!
Hey Brandon, I'm in the process of replacing my drivers seat, the cushion replacement is less than 200 bucks from Quirkparts on eBay, and it seems pretty easy to do yourself.. I've also seen on here that if you add more foam underneath that part of the cushion it won't happen again
I've got the 2006 limited with the 4.7 btw
Nice Jeep I like the roof basket what's the brand ?
Can you post the link for the shorty antenna please.
damn i have the same jeep but yours looks so much better lmao. goals while i save up for an srt haha. How much did these upgrades cost in total btw??
I just got a gc. Not much info on it. Can't get mine out of limp mode. It has the hemi.
You should get the Superchips tuner, K&N CAI and Magnaflow muffler. These three mods made a pretty big difference for my Hemi Grand Cherokee.
I got the same engine/generation WK1 that he has & I did an all new aftermarket performance exhaust (except for headers, those are very hard to fit in the engine bay), custom CAI, stripped 200lbs from the vehicle & so far, I'm very pleased with how much faster it got even though it's still a 4.7. The 4.7's are good engines most of the time & I think they were the bigger brother to the 5.7 Hemi's. Anyway, your suggestions to him are similar ones I gave to him on another video.
4.7 the bigger brother to the 5.7? Nah.
csu266 😂😂
I have the 5.7L Hemi in the same jeep. I never feel like it needs more power. It has great low end and midrange but its not as fast as a Charger or 300 with the same engine. The 5.7L gets terrible gas milage in the Jeep too. I still love it though. It feels very nimble and light (even though it weighs 4500lbs), and It gives you alot of confidence in wet weather or muddy situations. I spent alot of money keeping it going after it reached 125,000 miles. Front drive shaft, front diff bushings and seals, both front halfshafts, new egr, fuel pump, valve cover gaskets, etc, etc. So the morel of this story is that these WK jeeps can be very very fun, but it's gonna cost ya some cash if you keep it long enough.
Ed Jackson not true. I have a 2008 hemi with 217,000 miles the only thing that's gone wrong without me breaking it is the heater core.
Did you buy it new? If you did and never had any of the problems I mentioned you are a blessed individual. Ironically I've never had heater core problems with the two WK jeeps I've owned. Only in the WJs
Ed Jackson my dad is the first owner I bought it off of him 3 years ago at 182k. Been dead reliable the whole time we owned it. Sorry about your misfortunes. Mines been lifted for over 50k and wheeled too. No issues ever.
I've never owned an 08, but it sounds like they may be more durable. I'll keep that in mind when Im looking for my next one.
I have a 2010 wk with the Hemi also and get good mileage with it for a v8 with this amount of power and full time 4wd, it is also waay heavier than 4500 pounds lol but a plus and one of the big reasons i got this was the small size of the Grand Cherokee, fits in tight trails. my 2002 tahoe 2wd with the 5.3 +few bolt ons didn't make as much power and got less mileage, weighed the same and was bigger so in comparison I'm glad I got a WK
A bullet Grill would look nice! Tint the front two windows. It's a nice-looking Jeep
Tint and black grille has been updated! Check some more recent vids of the jeep!
Did you have camber issues after installing this lift? If so, any tips!?
Cool 😎!!!
Any problems with front driveshaft???
I got same one ,same Interior same color ...2006...5.7.
Nice looking jeep, I have the same set up lift on my jeep grand cherokee, question about the tire size 265/70/17 Do I need to put wheel spacers on it? or it will be good with out wheel spacers
I had some rubbing on the front control arm with no spacers. It's not terrible, but I liked the look of the spacer look anyways.
@@ShiftedPerspective this is much later but ive been after the same tired and was so worried about it but you just cleared my mind and i will be ordering it tonight!
I have a 2006 Grand Cherokee. What did you use on the paint to make it look so good?
Compounding and polishing for a dozen hours. Then coating.
what are the specs of the roof rack
Yep, the 5.7 lt. Hemi is just the best.......
that radio antenna would get snapped off first trip in the trails
When you had the Jeep did you see any issues with the upper control arms after lifting it?
+Brandon Lutz I didn’t have any issues.
I would love to see some more off roading in the Jeep, that opening vid got me interested. The Jeep looks great and very clean (minimal wear) for that mileage.
BTW did you get red paint on the rad? when you were showing the front tow hooks it looked like the radiator had some red paint on it.
I painted them separately so I doubt I got any red on the radiator...maybe it's rust. :-( Off roading is super fun, but is really hard on the Jeep. Right now I might stay away for a while since I want it to be reliable.
Have you had any noise or grinding or clunks with the lift kit ?
+Juliana Yepez nopr
Are the tires loud on the high way or on roads in general ?
+Guillermo Santana slightly louder but if you have music on you can't even tell
what type of lift is it exactly, body lift right?
WKs Are unibody, there is no way to do a body lift on one.
Hey man nice video! I was wondering how much the lift cost you? I'm thinking about getting a 2005 grand cherokee and would want to put a lift on it
A spacer lift is $150-$200, but I also upgraded to Bilstein 4600 shocks and 32" tires. All in was about $2k, but $760 of that was tires.
You spent too much 😅
Do you get road noise from those tires .
+cano97 very little.
U can connect them to ur phone and u can answer ur phone
link to the antenna website pleasE?
Tyyy
Link to antenna please
*And there’s a car making a whistling noise*
Nice jeep. I have an 07 laredo worst vehicle i have ever owned lol
Is that the hemi version
No it's the 4.7 v8
Brandon B keep the vids up.....just earned a sub
