We know drivers like you in the New City, Nanuet, and Pearl River, NY, areas don't just like to be at the head of the pack. You like to be above the pack. That's why you might like checking out some Jeep Gladiator lift kits and other accessories that can help you personalize your ride to get the kind of drive you want.
What are lift kits and why should I install one?
This is what you may be wondering. So, the team at Rockland CDJR is here with some answers. Keep reading to learn more about what a lift kit can add to your off-road adventures in your Jeep Gladiator and how to get yours today.
A lift kit, also known as a suspension lift kit or a body lift kit, is exactly what it sounds like. It raises your pickup several inches above the factory ground clearance. Body lift kits lift you two to three inches higher by putting a high-grade nylon space between the body and frame. Suspension lift kits can lift you even higher by raising the suspension itself.
Even better, it does this without affecting the quality or precision of your ride. Take a look at the specs below to compare your Gladiator ride height with and without a lift kit:
Not only is the standard ground height for the Jeep Gladiator 10 inches, but the Rubicon trim level has a ground height of 11.1 inches. So, with a lift kit, you can grow your truck's ground height to a whopping 13 inches or more!
Of course, always check your state's ride height regulations before making any alterations to your vehicle's height. Also keep in mind that the higher you go, the more you raise your center of gravity. This can lead to some stability issues at high speeds, so always keep safety in mind.
Why is raising your ground clearance a benefit? There are several reasons, including:
By lifting your Gladiator even higher, some lift kits allow you to install bigger wheels. This winning combination of height and wheels can help you traverse especially rocky or hilly terrain because you can cruise right over obstacles that may stop other trucks in their path.
Raising ride height also improves visibility. It positions you higher in the captain's chair, giving you a vantage point to see above other vehicles. This can also help you see above obstacles and chart a better course forward. Increased visibility paired with the available forward-facing TrailCam Off-Road Camera can make for much more successful off-roading endeavors, overall.
