another question for you i got the bilsteins HD for my jeep, have you ever tried, as now im thinking of swapping them out for the coil overs

[isastevem]

Finally someone who shows exactly what needs to be done explains and takes their time, hats off, I changed mine due to watching your video thank you!!

Do you have a video for the front?

[Ashitanoyuki]

Before i take out the shock absorber, do I need to use a jack to jack it up?

[riverwindflutes]

What happend to the Rough Counry Budget Lift video?

[bapabob]

Coil overs, how much more expensive than regular shocks?

[AnAfflictedOne]

If I'm not mistaken...do I see a Red Mounty in the reflection of your window?

[ItsGoodCookin]

nicely done! thumbs up

[TheKepine]

hey i have a 2005 jeep grand cherokee laredo, and im in need of some new tires, wht tires were those on your jeep, they look good witht the stock rims?

[jbrunsonjr]

@TheKepine They are the exact same tires that come on the new Wrangler Rubicon. In order to fit them, I had to put on a 2" Rough Country suspension lift. Oh, and yes, they are stock rims!

[marcosevelyn07]

hey just wondering did you jack up your jeep before removing the shock can u just loosen it and take it out ??

[jbrunsonjr]

@marcosevelyn07 Taking the stock ones out is easy and doesn't require jacking it up. Also putting in regular new shocks you can do without jacking it up. With the coilovers, I had to in order to get it to fit, though due to the spring.

lol i replaced my front shocks on my gmc sierra i bought used they had 148,000 miles on them and the rear its like theres no shocks at 151,000 miles im replacing them today with monroe reflex

[jbrunsonjr]

@joeldude76 I bet it will ride like a new truck!!!

[joeldude76]

@jbrunsonjr i did it the day i commented on this after i saw this video i was inspired to just go out and do it alone but i realized that i dont have welded nuts on the other side and with how tight they were we needed 2 people

[Dafatdaddy]

Hey Buddy. lol I had Just got into looking for some shocks on my Jeep Commander ,and I came across your video when I found the Leveling Shocks, lol too funny. lol But hey Great Video and you beat me to the punch. But hey quick question. I'm always referencing the videos you've done on all the Oil Fluid Changes, and I noticed that you didn't use any royal purple in the Transfer and Transmission. Do you recommend going purple with those two or sticking to Mopar brand from the Dealer?

[jbrunsonjr]

@Dafatdaddy From what I have been told, those two were already synthetics, so considering how much a tranny is, I decided to keep with the factory stuff. I would probably do more research before swapping in the RP stuff for the factory, and also ask others if they have done it or not...

[TheZackAndrews]

You clean it up before the video? That thing is spotless!

[jbrunsonjr]

@TheZackAndrews I try to clean it every so often, but then again, I haven't been mudding lately, either. :(

[mercenary454]

BTW, nice meats on ur jeep there bro, those tires are aggressive lookin....

[jbrunsonjr]

@mercenary454 - Thanks! I love adding a little bit of a more aggressive look to my soccermom-mobile. :D

[joeldude76]

@jbrunsonjr yeah its defintily a nice vehicle im just getting some aftermarket rims that will make the tires stick out past the body like a inch and getting some bfgs all terrain but i have a queston im replacing the shocks on my gmc sierra will i be able to remove the shocks without jacking it up because im sure the springs will hold the weight of it

[mercenary454]

extra load carrying capability for all the cool goodies you'll snag at the next train show.....

[alanator25]

Wow! Great video! I was surprised the shock was so easy to take out. I should have done that on my Expe long ago.

[jbrunsonjr]

@alanator25 - Yeah, it really didn't take too long to knock it out, but i tell you what, my truck handles like a brand new SUV in the back. Now I want to do the front BAAAAD!

[Jabbajawz4life]

Thanks! I start driving in a month but my mom has already taken me for some practice. Will come in handy!

[jbrunsonjr]

@Jabbajawz4life - That is the best experience ever! Just wait until you get for first whip - man I miss my first car. Wish I had never sold it!

[Jabbajawz4life]

@jbrunsonjr yeah in July I take range but I already have my permit!

[PrettyBoyAllan]

@jbrunsonjr i just got my first car a 1991 firebird 3,1L V6
