That was fun to watch. I may need to bite the bullet this time around. I’m afraid to start adding things up. Lol.
I’m really thinking long arm for sure for the on-road benefits as a daily. How much did they benefit this set up off road?
Would it even make sense to pair a long arm with anything other than coil-overs. Particularly the bypass kings and coils?
Mel is awesome and him in the vid was a great touch.I’ll need to bend his ear sooner than later.

V6 Diesel JL SWB???? If available in Europe!
Yup, installed a set of wheel spacers.
LOL - sorry about that
LOL - too funny. But yeah, the rear end install is a snap especially if you don't do long arms.
Awesome - glad that you were able to glean some help from the video
Cool - so glad that we were able to get him in there
The long arms and coilovers will set you back about $9k. Install takes about 2 days and that's the labor you'll be charged for.

Actually, it's not as bad as I thought it would be. Could be that the electric steering on the JL can deal with it better. We'll have to see how it does on the rocks.
Honestly, if you can afford it, this is a kit that you want. Having run the JK bolt on coilover kit, I can tell you that this feels more like the DTD and even has more travel than it. On road ride is outstanding or at least, in my opinion. You can do the long arms without the coilovers but for the money, I'd rather run the coilovers especially being that they're 2.5s now.
Crazy, right?
Glad you approve![]()

Did I miss something about the spacers? Are you running spacers with your existing beadlocks?
My wheels are 4.5 BS with -12 offset. Was planning on 12.5 wide tires. Do I need to re-think this if I go with the CO kit?
So it’s like the DTD only cheaper. Sounds like a good way to spin this to Amy. Lol.
I’ve been waiting for you to get to the higher end kits. Was kind of hoping you’d do the enforcer first, but you’ve run like 5 shock and coil kits already.
I’ve been saving up and looking forward to building the JL. Would be great to sell the JK first, so we’ll see about timing.
Yup, running 1.75" wheel spacers with our XD231's which have 4.75" of back spacing. If you go coilovers, you will need 3.5" of back spacing to help clear things at a full flex.
We would have done the Enforcer kit but the Kings are pretty expensive. Just made more sense to us to get coilovers instead.So it’s like the DTD only cheaper. Sounds like a good way to spin this to Amy. Lol.

Wow, that set up it awesome, just what my JLUR needs.
Now EVO needs a mobile shop, that travels across the U.S. I think they'd make a killing.
