2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ Overland running Fins and Things, Steel Bender, and Hell’s Revenge. Spartan Locker, Iron Rock Off Road long arms, 35” tires.
Wow this WJ is a rampaging monster, but it still required nerves of steel on the part of the driver, to disobey gravity so calmly and with such impunity.
Real sweet rig! Thanks for sharing!
At 3:00, WHEW! Great job of driving and building.
Wow....that drop is insane...I thought for sure you were going to lay it over....thanks for a great video
Moab is a once in a life time trip. We had to go for it! 🤙🏼
Oh wow! That car is amazing 😍
Man.. you should upload more vids of this beauty!
That's one bad ass Cherokee! Great job driving.
Sick build, great job and vid
Thanks!
Love your WJ Buddy, upload more videos please
Great drive bro. Well-done
Excellent spotter!
Nicely done. Please do a walk around if this wj
That last one was damnnn crazy !!
Great driving!
Had and rolled an 03 limited with the 4.0L and quadra drive w/ out the tow package. Such a sad day, was the best snow and off road jeep I ever owned. Whoever bought it from Jeep had it made and I hope to find another, but a v8 overland would suffice haha.
Nice, that last one had me. My heart dropped for a sec. nice run!
I was certain we were headed over!
instablaster...
My dad was the Ford dealer in Moab for 25 years I grew up on Lyons back!
How cool! That is a neat place.
The “Tip over challenge” looks like a pucker factor of 10
Awesome Jeep and spotting

@@Abbamonto who sales the fender flares?
Hey man please go check out jeep feen'z on KZhead and subscribe! Ty
I love the ZJ and WJ. Comfort, power, solid front/rear axle. And you can get a stock one for under 5k!
Hell yea!
Just got ours for 1400 :) Columbia Edition V8 Quadra Drive II. So far loving it!
Do you have a build thread or video? That tells about all your specs? Wheel size, back spacing etc...?
awesome keep making more videos
Hey Derek, please go check out jeep feen'z KZhead and subscribe! Thanks man
I'm seriously considering a WJ for my next adventure. Any owners here with insights to share?
Bad azz 🙌🏼🙌🏼🥰🥰
Whats the set up on your jeep ?
Nice Jeep!
chotu ka goolgapea
This makes me want to make my 04 WJ into something this capable. Had it for 6 years and only has 47k miles 🥲 she’s a baby
Hell yea! Do it!
@@Abbamonto hey I’m thinking of getting an 03 Overland and really like the style of yours not that I’m trying to steal it 👀 but if I was lol what height lift kit did you put on it and any other mods that might be useful to install you could tell me?
@@zachk7208 I would recommend the iron rock off-road long arm lift kit. 6.5 is what I did. I would consider the 8” lift. I for the steaming drop kit and drop pitman arm as well.
Don't
@@danielreyes34dr don’t go 8”?
Sweet!
Still running the Dana 30 upfront?
i dont care what anyone says. the WJ's are now the new Cherokee XJ's.
Nice car.
Which axels im building same jeep to go to moab as well 🤙
What's type of lift kit are you using
what kind of rims are those,and what size?
But the rig its awesom! And looks shine
Reminds me of my 99 lol same lift n everything
True Mopar, true power, true Jeep.

Super!
A real Jeep PS. My heart dropped when it starting tilting backwards, thought it was going to go over
Ha, ha! Thanks 🙏
Nice wj man.... I also own a 2004 overland although not as nice as yours, daily driven for last 17 year's 4.7HO....
Now thats comitment! Had ours for the same time. 1999 limited 4.7
I'm on the fence about buying the Cherokee Overland($4800) 2003 219k with the 4.7 HO or an Xterra($3200) 2007 210k 4x4 with 4.0. Both are solid vehicles.
Damn I like the jeep brotha I have one, i have the laredo sports addition
Bad Ass WJ!
Hey man please go check out jeep feen'z on KZhead and subscribe! Thanks
Love the jeep - I have a 2000 WJ. Was wondering where you got those nice fenders flares?

Que suspensión tienes
Awesome Jeep. !'m planning a step up from the 3 inch IRO and 32s to 6.5 with 35s. Did you re-gear or are you still running stock ?
No regear. Still on 3.73. Lunchbox in the rear.
get yourself a 5 sp. auto,s are rubbish..
Hey Pete, please go check out jeep feen'z on KZhead and subscribe! Thanks man
super maitrise a la conduite bravo.
Супер круто!!! Супер!!!
Killer!!! Our Grand has been morphing all the time!!!!
Hi, your WJ is amazing, how many inches is lifted? Best Regards
6
Nice Jeep.👍🏻Did you have to change the axel to move 35"??
Not yet. 3.73 great ration is not perfect but work.
Hi, I have the same WJ as yours and I love your V8 sound (and your ride, of course). Which muffler or exhaust system is yours? Thanks.
Magnaflow. I cut the pipe before the factory muffler and installed the little aftermarket deal with the pipe turned down before the rear axle.
@@Abbamonto Thanks. I think I'll do as you did.
I got mine straight piped! V8, honestly the drone isn't to bad! Once you get use to it. Neighbors probably hate it....
Wooo that was close
😬
I want a vehicle like that
It’s crazy how I have one and don’t really want it that much, and here you are wanting one..
I’ve got on its a 4.7L V8 2001 I love that thing to pieces
Would love to see build space
That’s one good looking WJ man... I will be doing some work like this to mine. Awesome. Did you change gears for that 35? Any mayor trimming other than fender/bumper and wiper liquid relocation...??
Thanks, bud. I have not regeared. Still running 3.73 factory gears. Yes to fender and front bumper trimming. Yes to washer fluid ZJ swap. Little by little!!
@@Abbamonto I have watch it a zillion times... great build.... Will you be re gearing anytime soon? Any issues with trany? Ive got 33 on mine and my trany is not happy with them... an issue with the trany oil pressure sensor....
@@cdumois awesome! I am at the crossroads of regear vs. axel swap. I think will regear next year to something between 4.10 or 4.56.
@@Abbamonto yeah... Im considering 4.56 with the 35... THANKS A LOT, BUD...
from my observations,i will not buy a 4x4,less than an 83 bronco,75 swb f100 size.chev dodge whatever, as most swb jeeps roll easy. my bronco has a locker d44 front,d60 rear,all 8 stud. i have a single cab s/duty tray back.it surprises me where & what it does..but,its a 6 cyl diesel.MWM,factory from brazil. good luck,.
Where might one get parts like this? I have a 99 Laredo I want to improve with Off-Road accessories but I can't find the right websites. Do I need to just take it to a special garage or can I buy the parts myself?
there is allot. but check out iron rock offroad
Hey man go check out jeep feen'z on KZhead and subscribe!! Thanks
Definitely check out Iron Rock Off-road. Excellent equipment, they drive their Jeeps and test their own stuff, they know pretty well what they are doing.
It's an overland so it's got the 4.7 HO. It's a beast.
Wooow!!
How is it on the road with the 6.5" lift? Also, did you do a tank tuck?
We have driven it thousands of miles on road. It is not a ton of fun to drive but it rides really well. No tank tuck. I have 1-ton steering going on over the Christmas break. I am expecting it to handle a bit better. I have both sway bars connected when driving on the road.
Super
Hey brother, I have the same WJ as you and am looking up upgrade my rig to what your is capable of. Super cool and clean looking btw. Any way you can give me your parts list and some tips on your build? Would be much appreciated.
Hi! Parts list is pretty simple… If Iron Rock Off Road makes it for the WJ, it’s on this WJ 😆 Tires and rims I found on Craigslist. They were off a JK. 35’s on 17 inch rims. I put an Aussie locker in the rear. Axels and gearing are stock otherwise. I added some limit straps to the front to keep the springs from coming out. Roof rack is from Goliath off road. That’s pretty much it!
@@Abbamonto what is the color of your jeep ?
@@malik.b Black Pearl
@@Abbamonto beautiful color!
Nice
Anyone with a 4.0L WJ try that same run? Think it's possible? Genuinely curious. Love my 4.0L, but I'd do a swap to a HO to run lines like that. Shout out to the spotter on that trip.
Yes , I have the 4.0 and been down this 3 times. . Here's a quick rundown of my rig. 4.5in lift that settled to exactly 4 inches. I'm on 33 inch tires , D30 axle ( sleeved -trussed - 4.56- Powertrax grip pro LSD - Nitro brand replacement axle shafts,- hd ball joints) iron rock link long arms f+r , tank tuck. Lots of metal cutting in the front wheel wells for flex , Bilstein shocks . 12o'clock labs universal speedo recalibration unit. It's all about matching your gears to your tire size . Take the tire size you want divided by the tire that Originally came on it x the original axle gear ratio . I chose 4.56 for 33's because i take a lot of stuff with me.
How high is your lift? I have a 3 inch lift but I'm wondering if those tires would fit on mines without rubbing. Also where can I get those wheels from?
Rugged a ridge wheels. I am not sure what you can fit with a 3” lift but cutting would be required for decent articulation if you try to stuff 35’s.
Chris Abbamont
Good!
Hey man please go check out jeep feen'z on KZhead and subscribe ! Thanks
do you have spartan lockers in front and rear ? chris abbamonto
Rear only. The front is still the limited slip from the factory.
Love the jeep what year is it? and thanks for video
2004. Thanks.
Where did you get those Ditch lights from?
ACI: Agri-Cover, Inc. The mounts were from e-bay and undersized for the lights. dbmetalworx.com/4x4-products/WJ-1999-04-Jeep-Grand-Cherokee-WJ-COWL-LIGHT-BRACKETS-p62352830
super
Hi nice Wj What shocks use pls?
Iron Rock Off Road 6.5” long arm Rock-Link with Doetsch Tech Shocks.
can You post tech spec of Your WJ suspension,shafts etc??
Iron Rock Off Road 6.5” long arm lift, 3-link front, 4-link rear. Lunchbox locker in the stock rear. Stock axels. Stock drive shafts. Bushwhacker cut-out tire flares. 35x12.5x17” tires/wheels. Limit straps up front. Everything else is STOCK!
Thank You
What wheel and tire setup are you running. Ride comfort?
still waiting for the answer lol 😆
Me too!
Sorry. 35x12.5x17. Ride is GREAT. Road noise is TERRIBLE 😝
Awesome runs. Curious what suspension you are using. Looking to have my 03 fitted with 4in.
Iron Rock 6” Long Arm Kit
If you still haven't lifted it and want too I second that Iron Rock long arm lift. I had it on my 02 WJ and loved it. I'm not condoning jumping it but I was only 18 at the time and had it off the ground once or twice and it held up. Very well made life kit.
@@westonneil8744 I'm looking at the 6.5 IRO. I picked up an 02 overland with the 242! I couldn't believe it! I know it will need an SYE. You'd recommend that kit huh? The best? I want a smooth ride.
I can't say it's the best or the smoothest, but like I said for me it held up through a lot of abuse.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How many inches lift does the Jeep have?
6.5” Iron Rock Off Road
Inspiring Rig. My 2002 GC Limited is on jack stands right now undergoing transformation. I have both 4 inch and 6 inch springs. What are you running?
6” is perfect 👌
Where did you get those Head lights ?
EBay
Hey man please go check out jeep feen'z on KZhead and subscribe! Thanks
How many inch is ur lift kit and your tires size nice jeep 👍
6.5” with 35”
Nice jeep man im bulding one on 4 inch 35 i dont know if its ganna work
@@joker-rt2oj I don’t think you’ll clear 35s on a 4 inch. At least not easily
@@night5738 i have bushwhackers and adjustable control arms tomorrow il try to install the lift and the wheels
Did you tuck your tank?
Not yet. No departure angle issues yet.
No mods other than rear locker and 6.5 iro?
Correct!
@@Abbamonto i have to adjust my shopping cart on IRO now 🤣
@@OtisAngeltech the guys there are very helpful. I got the steering drop and drop pitman arm too. I think that may come with the current rock-link system.
First time ive ever seen someone successfully make hells revenge while someone is arguing with the spotter. Guess its that chicks first time there.
Good times! 👍
Which roof rack is that? Link please?
Goliath Offroad
Thank you.
Nice!🇺🇸🐒
What year is that jeep?
2004
Schönes Auto
Sehr schön.
What model is the roof rack?
It is from Goliath Off Road goliathoffroad.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=62&product_id=97
6 or 8 cylinder?
Overland came with the 4.7L high-output V8
Video of the build?
It would be the most boring video ever 🤣
Axles and gear ratios please . Thanks
Stock D44/D30 with factory 1:3.73 gearing.
