Lifted Jeep Grand Cherokee - Current Mods & Specs

Here are the current mods and specs of my 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I have a few other things planned, but mostly maintenance items. I will be sure to outline them as they come up. Let me know if I left anything out! Thanks for watching!

Love the Jeep, man 👍🏻

WK's are great Jeeps! I have 2 inch lift and the Rola basket also.

Can you please give me the link on the exact lift kit you put on including the rough country spacers ? First time watching your vids definitely subscribing !

I have the 5.7L Hemi  in the same jeep. I never feel like it needs more power. It has great low end and midrange but its not as fast as a Charger or 300 with the same engine. The 5.7L gets terrible gas milage in the Jeep too. I still love it though. It feels very nimble and light (even though it weighs 4500lbs), and It gives you alot of confidence in wet weather or muddy situations. I spent alot of money keeping it going after it reached 125, 000 miles. Front drive shaft, front diff bushings and seals, both front halfshafts,  new egr,   fuel pump,  valve cover gaskets,   etc, etc. So the morel of this story is that these WK jeeps can be very very fun, but it's gonna cost ya some cash if you keep it long enough.

Nice Jeep! The stance is perfect. I have a 2010 WK with a hemi. I love it!

One HUGE mod/upkeep deal that our Jeep WK's need is a supreme rotor/brake disc pad set that can dissipate all of that heat that causes the Jeep's to burn through brakes & rotors so much. I found a good complete kit online for $400 which includes all new calipers, slotted/drilled rotors for better heat dissipation & ceramic brake pads also, which are better for soaking up heat. This $400 Kit includes painted calipers I think too, red last time I looked. It's worth looking into. Too much weight & the constant braking after awhile, for Jeep's, it's unlike most cars, we gotta replace these things sooner than we would for another car.

You should get the Superchips tuner, K&N CAI and Magnaflow muffler. These three mods made a pretty big difference for my Hemi Grand Cherokee.

Hey Brandon, Nice updates (y)...you are proud M3 owner ;) probably this video was before you got your M3. Keep posting!

[americanpatriot]

Besides the obvious mods to do, there are other smaller tweaks to modify for more performance gains that you'll have to search around the net for to find out. I got them all saved on my hard-drive but have no where to post here to share. Anyway, good job.

KandN filter with either straight pipe or performance muffler. And a tune would be pretty awesome too

Hey Brandon, I'm in the process of replacing my drivers seat, the cushion replacement is less than 200 bucks from Quirkparts on eBay, and it seems pretty easy to do yourself.. I've also seen on here that if you add more foam underneath that part of the cushion it won't happen again

You Jeep looks great and keeps improving. A good way to care for the leather part of those seats is to use a natural bristle brush and some saddle soap. You can find some by the shoe polish in Walmart for around $3. Just use a damp brush and wipe with a damp cloth, then use cream conditioner. I personally like the stuff made by Autoglym. You can usually find it on Amazon and a bottle will last the life of several cars. I would avoid the cheap stuff that's widely available like Lexol, as I personally find it useless, and short lived, protection wise. Also, you should be able to find a new drivers side seat that matches at a you-pull-it salvage yard for very little money. A leather repair shop can fix the bolster too if that's easier. That would make a great vid too. Hope you can use the info and best wishes... Almost forgot but odd as it may seem I also have a WK and an M3. :)

Great video! Do you have a link to that roof basket? Look nice. :)

[freerider]

We just bought a ‘05 5.7 Hemi Limited - The drivers seat is also cracked like yours lol 😂 - up in Canada eh! I want a shorty antenna!

[sat_stacks]

Hey Brandon, love the Jeep vids man. I have a 2010 WK with similar mods! Wondering what the intro song is?

[Roc]

that radio antenna would get snapped off first trip in the trails

[TheHortond]

I just got a gc. Not much info on it. Can't get mine out of limp mode. It has the hemi.

[BTD]

Can you post the link for the shorty antenna please.

[jonhettrick]

A bullet Grill would look nice! Tint the front two windows. It's a nice-looking Jeep
