Lifting Vehicles To Extend Car Life
Okay, it would be easy to add a funny, snarky comment to the opening image where the white Jeep Cherokee sits so much taller in the parking lot than the dark Jeep Cherokee. The pavement in the image is bone dry but imagine that the photo was taken in winter. There might be snow on the ground. And the owner of the store where the parking lot sits might decide to do her customers a solid and spread epson salt all over the parking lot in order to keep it from being icy. This is very common practice in snowy climates, a practice that promotes rust in the undercarriage of vehicles. Here is an image of a Jeep that is about to get the Rubicon Extreme Duty Long Arm lift kit installed. First the mechanics had to blow torch nearly every bolt and nut as they were rusted solid after long exposure to winter salt water. The higher your Jeep sits off the ground, the less exposure it will have to salt water in winter, the longer vehicle life you will enjoy.
Lets Face It, Those Fat Tires Are Styling
Here is a video of a 2010 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited uploaded by a guy calling himself BurtonBoarderJ72. If Burton's Youtube channel is any indication, his off-road experience is as limited as his Rubicon is Unlimited. Burton's just basically showing off the Jeep Rubicon Unlimited in the video. And why shouldn't he, the car looks HOT. He has 33x12.5x18 Nitto Mud Grapplers tires with 18" KMC XD Addict Wheels and the look is head-turning. Burton would not have been able to fit that tire/wheel combination on his Jeep Rubicon had he not first installed a Rubicon Express Budget Boost. Well, maybe he would have but each time he took a sharp corner the tires would be rubbing. Now, whatever corners or potholes Burton faces, he's got those Rubicon Express Shocks to smooth his ride.
