Can’t stop staring at that dyed beard 😂😂
It's a disaster
He probably ran out of dye. He should also quit taking his sons clothes. And unfortunately tattoos are out. You can thank Justin Beaver. He needs a makeover more then the Jeep.
Lol I feel bad for you guys 😂 this is what you do with your time..
The clips of your and your kiddo were heartwarming as all get out. The parts you installed look epic. I have a new appreciation for Rough Country. I always assumed that the company was strictly budget but the quality is apparent.
Ball Joint Eliminators next :) Beard color is very BOLD, you do you.
You do put on one heck of a show! One fine ride! You guys take a beating from other shops, but I can’t see what is so inferior! I have used your products for years and have no complaints! Keep up the good work and I will continue to use your products! Thanks,
Beautiful TJ 👍🏼 Definitely a nice build 👍🏼
This video had me spending money! Thanks for the sales pitch and the beard is epic!
Dad would be very proud!
Nice and clean!! 💪🏼
Sweet Jeep brother
I just did all these same control arms on my son's 2000 tj. The rear upper ones are hard to put together because when they welded the e-brake tabs on the side of the body it changes the tube. I didn't think it was going to work but I got through it.
Love the jeep build. Just wishing my wallet was as big as my hope. Keep up the great work on you're products and one day I may give you a call.
respect from French TJ.

Love it I put a 4inch RC lift and back bumper on my 2003 tj last year . What head lights are you running
I have the EXACT Jeep. Yellow 2000 4.0 manual trans and 6" RC lift. Only difference is mine is hard top.
Looking into the complete crawl setup for my 2000 Jeep tj any info or coupons I’d love to install Rough Country setup I have the 3.5 inch lift springs and shocks from RC already
🔥🔥
Can I have all your old parts 🤣. They would really spruce up my 99 TJ
Hahaha yeah I laugh everytime I see a lifted jeep with fancy wheels!
So you’re telling me you wear the same shoes all the time? Just because you see a Jeep one way. Doesn’t mean you’ll see it the same way a few days later. Lol.
Hi, I really liked your video and also inspired for a rebuild of my wrangler tj 99 4.0L . Can you post the parts list or send it to me in a pm? Since I live in the Dominican Republic, it is not so easy to get good conversion parts here. Greetings Sterios
Rough Country patrociname; tengo un tj que necesita todos esos cambios.
35 tires? do you really recommend 6 in ch lift for that ? or could I stick to a 4 inch RC long arm kit ? ?
What lift does it have I have a 04 tj
I recently bought a 2002 Jeep wrangler sport. It has a lift kit on it with some 33 on it. It tends to sway a little Could you tell me if that is normal
Damn, are you Still running a stock axle?
what brand is that front "fender delete ) system ?
Where did you get the headlights?
I have more faith in the covid vaccine than I do in rough country.
Lawd have mercy. The COVID vaccine is the same as any other vaccine you’ve ever received. SMH

I’ve seen the devastating CURSE & how politics has caused people to become PERVERSE. I’ll end with THIS that you’ve become AMISS. Good day
Dude are you stoned out of your mind or what?Have you actually installed and used any Rough Country suspension components? OR are you just talking out of your neck with no real experience to back your words? People who trash a product just because they feel it is the cool thing to do, just to gain peoples attention are pathetic, and sad individuals without any mind of their own to actually process any real thought. So, I will correct you here and now. Because what you said here is possibly the most ignorant statement I have ever seen ( actually it's beyond possible, because it just is the absolute most ignorant thing I have ever read! ). First I'll start by pointing out while it is as of yet totally invalid, I will say thanks for sharing your opinion ( the uneducated trash talk that it may be ). The things that come to our minds after reading such low level below basic comments like this are as follows... How did you come to develop your opinion? What experience, or qualifications do you have or hold that makes your statement remotely relevant? Are you speaking from the first hand, or are you just repeating crap you read on a forum somewhere that made you an "expert" who's mute comment should be heard? My thoughts run like this because I speak from the direct experience of being extremely hard on Rough Country suspension components while wheeling. First let me inform you of the obvious... While being as respectful as I possibly can as I write this. You are nothing but a sheeple following a flock of other sheeple pretending to be a hurd dog that everyone has turned into a joke, and ignores while pointing, and laughing at your meaningless yips, and your failure here. Second had you actually used Rough Country suspension components you would not be talking trash as you would already understand the ignorance of your words, and in turn I would not be trashing you. Third, I have personally beaten the living snot out of our 2.5" Rough Country lift under our Wyld Chyld YJ Project, and not a single failure with any of the parts that was provided to us by Rough Country. Fourth, For being leaf sprung on all 4 corners, we were able to gain quite a bit of flex once all the extra crud was removed from under the Jeep. The leaf packs work extremely well, They are even accepting of being inverted while at full twist amazingly well... In fact, because of the fact it does work very well for our needs we are still using a most of the Rough Country lift on our Jeep accept the front leaf packs. After completely rebuilding it from the ground up using mostly 2001 Ford 4x4 F150 4.6l V8 components on the interior, specifically the dash, as well as the entire powertrain between the frame, mostly as an answer to the OEM starter falling out on a trail. Then to fully allow us to use our new found power we installed 1978-79 Ford F150/ Bronco axles. Doing so we also went from Leaves up front to Radius arm suspension using the N3 shocks that came with the YJ kit. On the rear it is all Rough Country suspension lift, with N3 shocks and 4" over shackles to level the Jeep up. Since we lifted the Jeep, and swapped in the big motor we have continued to beat the snot out of our Rough Country Suspension, without any fails faults or hiccups on Rough Country's parts. I have managed to do some fairly stupid things off road, and every bit of the way the suspension has always handled everything I have thrown at it. I will use the words "abused hard" when I refer to our Rough Country Suspension, because our Jeep is not driven on paved roads. ALL I know is how well the suspension works off-road, and because of what I have thrown at our suspension Rough Country has earned my complete loyalty, and total faith in their products. By the way, and FYI I am not paid by Rough Country, I am not an ambassador, and we hold no sponsorships. We paid full price for what we installed, and we do not regret the decision to go with Rough Country at all. I will be recommending the use of Rough Country Kits on our future builds for both us, and our friends who like our work. Honestly Rough Country is way more reliable, and holds up and together at a far more demanding level than Fab Tech can ever achieve. It's my personal experiences that developed that opinion. I have experience driving and wheeling vehicles using both manufactures. Everything I have ever bought from Fab Tech has either failed and left me stranded in the desert, in the dunes, and going over a speed bump with broken suspension components just about every time I tried to put Fab Tech suspension to work. It would be the perfect suspension for the "Rotsun" on motortrend as I always counted on my Fab Tech suspension failing. You can use that as an example for the proper way to trash, and spread unfound rumors like you have about a suspension manufacturer that is as good as Rough Country actually is.... If you want your point heard, and possibly taken remotely serious may I suggest you have some sort of example, and / or explanation of how you came to your opinion Maybe that way you don't look as ignorant and might not get made to look a fool for public display. Anyway, our Wyld Chyld may have her issues, but the parts we got from Rough Country are none. So you can load that up in your pipe and smoke it... You DIP.
Such a lame Jack Hole, punk thing to let dribble out of your mind. I mean to repeat after reading someone else say the same thing. Get real, and maybe try to be original. I have more faith in Biden and the validity of COVID than I do in your ability to develope a basic thought with value. You do make a great parrot though repeating what ever trash you learned because you feel enlightened with the words you picked up from sitting on the shoulders of real men.
I don’t know if I can trust a guy who dyes his beard.
It always freaks me out when people act like cutting/grinding out sections of 20+ yr old steel is no big deal! "Won't that weaken it?" "Probably. I'm gonna do it anyway." 🤣
what fender is that? I had metal clock but dont want to pay that much after total of 2nd jeep?
I have the same question, did you found it?
Anybody knows the name of the replaced winch? Y need to buy accesories
he probably should get some coil overs and he probably be better off building your own custom links
what front bumper is that?
i would not use those air filters on any off road vehicle they let in fine dirt particles , I use wix air filters for off road to capture dust and dirt that those reusables dont
do you ship to Mexico?!
Why measure why not just put a long bolt or a socket extension through the both of them
Lmao at that beard color
Will the control arms help with death wobble.
Replace front end is only cure for death wobble. Balance tires, good steering stabilizer help preserve front end. But once front end components wear enough to cause death wobble…. Replace is only solution
You had to take a chunk out of your lower knuckle for the grease fitting??? You just made it weaker if rc ball joints require that I wouldn't buy them
I was thinking the same thing. Can’t the zerk fitting be relocated instead?
Get a mytop
This guy looks like a guy with a yellow jeep
I’m Ex Army not only did I take First in my defensive, driving course in the Army but after I was transferred out of 542 ordinance Detachment To 36 transportation department where I thought soldiers how to drive not only large trucks and heavy equipment over the logs and through mud but over trees and If you want someone to really test your equipment without any fear I will be happy to and there is no one in your company that will put your jeeps to there fullest potential but why haven’t you updated your Jeeps it’s not the 1940s anymore! (?) Look at your towing package. It’s ridiculous. We’re not pulling a jeep out of the mud. There’s so many bigger things to tow ? Like why can’t your jeeps pull 20,000 or more you winch what is that supposed ya do without braking? It’s a joke? You’re company’s reputation is on the line it’s being out classed bye the land Rover, we Are Americans act like it be proud and give us other Americans something to thumb our nose at the competition we made the Jeep but even Toyota has a jeep that out does ours!
Thieves 👺
