Jeep JL Wrangler Coilover Suspension with High Clearance Long Arms by EVO Rock Crawling Flex Test
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июл 2019
- Over the 4th of July Weekend, our good friends Tina and Adam came out to visit Cindy and I and being that we just got our Jeep JL Wrangler outfitted with an all new EVO High Clearance Long Arm System and King Coilovers, we decided to use the opportunity to take it out and put it to the test. Fortunately, we have big rocks just down the street and it didn't take long for us to get all twisted up. In this short video, you'll get to see how our JL performed and we hope you enjoy what you see.

That FLEX is absolutely amazing! I can see where the coil overs could get you into trouble. You’ll get her fixed. As always thanks for taking us along! ❤️🐞
The flex the EVO coilovers provide really is amazing. Glad you enjoyed the video :)
What do you mean get you in trouble?
Broke down and traded in my Hellcat for a Gladiator this weekend, 3.5 lift, 37s, on 17 beads. I haven’t missed the car yet! Channel to start soon👍🏻 Appreciate the inspiration!
GroundZero SportsCards sounds like a awesome Jeep mate, definitely a good trade
Cheap Jeeper I am loving it brother! More to come soon. Appreciate the comment.
There is an easy fix for that ... call Jared at AMW4x4. The Hellcat fits perfectly in that Gladiator :)
Just like everybody else has said, that flex is just insane! The long arms paired with the coil overs. Your setup is truly the best I’ve seen yet. Keep up the crazy wheeling videos man. They are seriously enjoyable to watch!
Why thank you. We're so glad you enjoyed it :)
Yeah crazy flex with those coil overs! Awesome as usual , thanks for the Great content! 👍🍻
So happy to hear you enjoy our content :)
Wayalife videos never disappoint! Thank you for the time and work you put into the channel for us the viewers 👌🏻
We're truly flattered and really do appreciate you saying as much. Glad you enjoy our videos :)
Man I love your ride. Always a pleasure watching you test its limits like that.
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it :)
This is for sure one of my favorite trails from you yet. Huge flex but so smooth and not too totally crazy. Y’all make it look easy 😁
Glad you enjoyed it!
Always enjoy your videos. Thanks!
We're so glad to hear it :)
Seriously, you guys make it look sooooooo easy!!! But I know realistically it takes a lot of skills and a crazy rig like yours to do some of those climbs. Awesome!! Great job!
Thank you. We're glad you enjoyed the video :)
Great Video! Such a capable rig. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼
Glad you liked it! The EVO coilovers make it all possible :)
Great video as usual. I am happy to receive from you a link to the PTT receiver on your radio
That Jeep with this flex and in your hands is unstoppable. Great video as always. Thanks for sharing.
We're definitely really happy with where this Jeep is at now. Sure makes it feel pretty unstoppable :)
Will U do 40s on this rubi ? Jl
Wow, the articulation on Wayalife's rig is phenomenal.
Not sure you can do much better than that without completely binding up the drive shafts.
Good Lord that Jeep is unstoppable. Money well spent on the coilovers I see. Awesome video!
The EVO high clearance long arms and coilover system really does work extremely well.
Another great video, as always. Looks like a fun area to go play. Thanks for sharing.
Glad to hear you had fun watching it :)
Cool trail , you had some good obstacles to get flexi ....... enjoyed the video. Thanks for the hard work.
Thank you. We're lucky to have rocks to play on so close to home :)
So awesome watching the rigs work.
Glad you like what you see :)
Wow evo coilovers flexes like mad. 👍
Yup, they sure do and the best part is, they offer a great ride on pavement too :)
This flex test with slow rock crawl shows how the lift and different suspension components work and complement each other to keep the suspension geometry in symmetry to the power plant. Learnt a lot and understood why a long control arm is required for such a lift, Thanks Eddie, yet another great video!
Glad you found our video to be informative :)
Great video and awesome suspension. That last obstacle looks like a lot of fun!!!
The suspension is really amazing and if you have the money, it's one I would highly recommend.
That my friend is allot of flex !!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
LOL - the EVO coilovers do provide just that :)
Awesome have a great time thanks
Too much flexxxx, i love it, very nice!!
Great video! Amazing what those Jeeps can do!
Thank you. Happy to hear you liked it :)
Amazing video and Jeep. You and that Jeep are unstoppable. It’s a beast. Well done. It flexes like mad
So glad you enjoyed the video :)
Love your videos. I am still young but one day I will have my very own wrangler. I have owned a wj and xj but next goal after college is a Jk or a jl
Great ride and some really intense rock crawling and flexing going on. It’s Jeeping 😉
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
This is a good video to demonstrate that the driver is at least 1/2 of crawling. Great flex ya'll.
Glad you enjoyed the video :)
This video has more flex than a bodybuilder competition. 💪
LOL
Great video! Thanks Wayalife
Happy to hear you enjoyed the video :)
Loving that monster flex! 💪🏽😀
Awesome :)
Made it look easy!
Beast mode level 10!
LOL - this JL really is a performer now :)
Beautiful day out in the rocks!
Thanks Rachel :)
Ya gotta love long arm kits!! Exciting video!!
Awesome, glad you liked it. Also, the long arms just correct suspension geometry. The big flex you see comes from the coilovers :)
I didn’t know that! Thanks for the info!!
All I can say is WOW! Freakin FLEX!
LOL - not too shabby I must say :)
Another great one!!👍
Thank you :)
Love your videos! 👊
Awesome, thank you :)
Awesome Flexing! Guess that's one advantage of a long arm. Very nice set up.
Actually, the long arms have nothing to do with the amount of flex we have. That's all due to the coilovers.
Love the videos and hope one they I can meet you keep up the good work!!!
Glad you liked it :)
Great video!
Thank you :)
Awesome wheelin!!
Thank you :)
Cindy, as always, the camera work and editing are fantastic! I know you make Eddie's driving and the Jeep's ability look better than it really is. ;-) LOL
LOL - it is nice to have Cindy work her magic :)
What a cool playground. And that suspension travel.... Wow
It sure is nice to have it just down the street and if you can believe it, we took all the easy stuff :)
@@wayalife very cool!
Eddie, I hate the body damage but am so impressed that you live in the real world!
Thanks! The damage can be fixed... again :)
That's amazing there's still snow on those mountain peaks!
LOL - it was an epic winter.
Very impressive steering control @ 07:05.
Now that's FLEX !!
Coming from a guy who's been running coilovers for a long time, yeah, this JL really does have some BIG flex.
That should Buff out :) that JL really has some travel now Real Nice.
Yup, it really is nice :)
Great video thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Holy flex!
LOL :)
that is so awesome
Glad you like what you see
great video!
Thank you :)
Impressive!
Thank you :)
Lotsa angry cooling fan in this one. 😂 Lovely as always good sir. (And ma’am!) 😎
LOL - to be fair, it was like a hundred out that day :)
So cool!!!!
Thank you :)
I got that same shirt, Eddie. : ) I rock that shirt all the time.
That's awesome :)
Wow you guys did awesome I’m sold on the coil overs I’m gonna order the kit for mine I have a 2015 JKU I am Ryan Dana 60 front and rear in an atlas transfer case 538 gears exciting to watch where you can go I’m so impressed
Awesome! Glad you found our video to be useful to you 😎
That look from the back at 15:26 holy shit! Nice !
Glad you like what you see :)
Awesome footage. Stay safe on the trails from Aussie land ✌
LROR I thought I was the only one from Australia on here
@@Whiteandsonsgarage haha I love all off roading vids man. From Turkey to Russia to USA and UK all the way to back home. #4x4addict 🙂
LROR is there anything else on RUclips apart from that?
Thank you :)
Love your videos. Thank you for taking the time to make each and everyone. I was wondering are you running a Rusty's Off-road back panel guard? Basically I am curious to know what to buy to protect the body damage you experienced in this video. Thank you.
We are not and if you look closer at the video, although the pinch seam did get hit, most of the damage was done to the body just above it. The Rusty's guard would have done nothing to protect it.
Very nice video and very nice preparation with the Fox, you are lucky to have land like that in the US, here in France this is unfortunately not the case!
That is unfortunate for you. Glad you enjoyed our video.
Yet another great video; beautiful area to wheel in; amazing flex with the coilover set up.
Out of curiosity, how do you like the coilover characteristics on the road running errands in town ?
Ride quality is 100% subjective but for me personally, this setup is way better than stock. Rides great and handles amazing.
Bummer getting smacked in the rear. I see a repair video in your future. Great shots of the coil overs working, they moved rapidly. Great job on the video when will you becoming to east coast to play in the hills and mud and slick rock. We have great parks that the coil overs could take with ease. Thanks for the video!
Actually, we may be heading out your way sooner than later. Glad you liked the video :)
Cool!!
Thank you :)
Eddie, was this shot pre or post wheel spacer install?
Of course, another outstanding video!,
This video was after installing the spacers.
Love that stop at 15:30 fot the poser pic...... Awesome flex.
LOL - it really is amazing just how much flex this coilover setup provides :)
Hi Eddie, awesome video as always. Looked like a fun trail/area to ride, can you share where this trail is? I usually spend a few weeks in the Carson Valley jeeping, and enjoying hikes on the Rim trail. Always jeeping alone so I haven't taken advantage of doing any of the Rubicon trail. This area looks like it is near Carson City. Would love to find it. I have a 2017 JKU on wontons&40's. Thanks for sharing.
Compared to a Prorock 60 with Dynatrac 1550 knuckles is the Prorock 44 that much better turning radius? Great video! That flex with the long arm and coils 👌👌
The Pro 1550's will give you about the same turning radius as the ProRock 44 with factory knuckles. The JK you see in the video is running a ProRock 60 with PR60 knuckles.
@@wayalife thanks for clarifying. Wasn't sure, and was hoping the 1550 knuckles helped the radius problem and brought it back closer to factory turning!
@@wayalife so what setup would you recommend?
What is the JT’s name? I am anxiously waiting for Gladiator mod videos. I’m patiently (or impatiently depending on the day) for my Launch Edition. I like that there is leather on the dash instead of something to shine in my eyes 👀 plus the dealerships here (Honolulu Hawaii) marks everything up about 15%. Launch is MSRP
Hot dog on the camera angles. Awesome video
Thanks! So glad you enjoyed it :)
Impressive. I was looking at the EVO coilover kit, but it annoys me that they won’t share any technical information about their products whatsoever. Not shock length, spring rate, or anything. If you make the best product, you aren’t afraid of others stealing your secrets. You hope they do. It only helps your brand.
Love the video..is that p hill
Flexy flexy 💪
The EVO coilovers do make that possible :)
You should come in France, To the "chambon sur jeep" or in suisse cran montana
cool
Just out of curiousity, what’s the name of the font you used for your decal on your front windshield? W A Y A L I F E
Wow great wheeling video buddy. Did ya get the body damage fixed yet ? If your anywhere near as OCD as me ya called the body shop on the way home lol🤘😎
LOL - no. Not yet but only because I promised Cindy that I would figure out how to protect the corners before I get it fixed :)
That's a great setup. So can you breakdown what's installed on the JL now Eddie. Also does it drive better or worse on pavement than your JK?
Suspension wise, we are now running an EVO high clearance long arm system with their 2.5 King bolt-on coilovers. For steering, we're running Synergy. Regarding how it drives on pavement goes, the long arms alone make both ride outstanding and we have our coilovers dialed in to make it better than stock or at least, in our opinion.
Eddie, awesome video... where is that trail?
Not really a trail, more rather, just a play area down the street from where we live.
Great Video...I remember from an early Video... You didn’t like the little extra hangover of the JL compared to the JK... More Armor I guess ? 🤔 And PS Where were you Wheeling at?
Gonna try to make some corner protection. Oh, and this is down the street from where we live :)
WOW!!!!!
Glad you like what you see :)
sweet
Thank you :)
Can you give us the details on the setup you have with the coil overs? We are about to do one on a JKU
It should be noted that the bolt on coilovers for a JL is a LOT different than the JK one. The one for the JK is nice but the amount of travel you get overall and especially in the rear isn't as great as what you see on the JL.
Awesome flex! Working my way up to coils eventually. Quick question ; why the tire change? Just installed 37 STT’s. Haven’t run anything yet, next month Holy Cross. Your vids with the Coopers, were some of my research.
watch the video a few back when they install long arms and coil overs. i’m pretty sure he went from a 13.5 to a 12.5 for fitment issues
@Bad Karma what Bryce Weinell said. We were experiencing rubbing issues with 13.50's and needed to run 12.50's to help mitigate them. At the time, EVO had a set of Trail Grapplers on hand.
Flexy!
Pretty nice, isn't it :)
What is the height of your ual right now from the front bumper
i AM surprized you dont have a rear bumper!! A nice short one tucked into the rear would of saved that rear corner. Otherwise your rig is working very well, impressed with the travel of those coilover shocks. CHEERS Steve h.
Not really a fan and have never had the need for one on our JK's. The JL is proving to be different.
Nice vid. Shows great articulation of those coil overs. Steve🇦🇺
Thank you. The articulation is pretty impressive with these coilovers :)
The Flex is awesome! Would you say you are sitting at approx a 4.5 inch lift with the CO?
I would say that we're sitting closer to 4"... maybe just under.
Those coil-overs have really improved the overall flex in a big way. Like you said though, that false sense of security does come at a cost, i.e. body damage, oooops! Now is a good time for some corner plating maybe?
Yeah, working on a design for something now :)
Did you have that problem with your JK? My dad just got one with the EVO bumper delete and I'm a little worried about the rear corner of the tub.
Do you remember how the space between your bump stops? I think the shop put ours (evo long arm) in too close to the rubber
We were running air bumps on this Jeep so I wouldn't be able to tell you. Sorry.
Some nice UAV shots at the end! :D
Thank you, glad you liked them :)
Great vid. I still don't know how you go from Moby with 40's and a V8 to a Jeep that is less than that. Not to say the JL isn't well equipped as its built way further than most. I think this is the first time I have seen you have any damage. I have always loved that your builds are so well done that you are never the one breaking down. I say this is a minor thing and on something like a Nitto experience it wouldn't have even made the video. I have done worse backing into a parking stall.
Well, Moby is still our favorite LOL. As far as damage goes, you need to look back at some of our other JL videos. We've hit our b-pillar down low and both rear corners as well. We showed all of this too. We just always make sure to fix our damage :)
1:37 Solid Axle.exe not found.
Ssooooo sick
Love the flex.... Also very impressed with the jet engine you have under the hood. ;)
LOL - yes, the jet engine is something else.
Looks like we missed a great weekend. 😬 I have to ask Adam how do you stall an automatic? Lol
LOL - we missed you guys. Hope to see you soon.
Some great flex on both rigs. That looks like a fun area to go test out suspension, not too far from home?
Literally about a mile away from home. :)
Wheres is this epic playground??
Great video, time for the JL to get some more armor!! Beautiful shots. I was thinking of ask you to compare between Moby and your JL, but it's hard to choose between kids. Do you think you'll do an engine swap on the JL or is it not needed for extra power?
Honestly, I can't say that I feel a need for a bigger motor the way I did on my JK.
@@wayalife Yeah I have a JK I am going to keep for a few more years and wish I could do something for more power. I saw a beautiful loaded with all the upgrades 2013 with a hemi and low miles I was so tempted for 49k. Good to know I'll maybe wait for the 80th anniversary model since i have the 70th :)
@@djuell01 The power you get from a V8 is nice but the trade off is that you will have overheating issues to deal with.
@@wayalife Thanks for your response. First world problems you know. We'll see if they come out with the bigger engines in the Gladiator or not soon. I hear the rumors. I am sure you do too. Can't wait to see what you do with yours.
Great video. What trail is that?
This is a local spot near where we live
Those fans though! Mine come on even on start up just sitting in the parking lot. Eddy have you ever come close to overheating?
Nope, not even close. Sure wish I had one of these fans on Moby.
