AEV Lift and 37's!

Notgeowild · Oct 12, 2024

Finally got the Jeep lifted and on 37's!!

Went with the AEV 2.5" lift with the 8100XP Shocks and 37" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T's.

Took some photos before heading to work

Looks great. Did you go with the standard springs? If so how does it ride compared to stock?

Notgeowild · Oct 12, 2024

Drove it home the first time last night.

It feels much more Firm and much more control. But I like my suspension firm. I hate the boat like ride. lol and yes it's the standard shocks.

Biggest difference I feel like is the tires. The weight of the 37's is noticeable for sure, but with the factory 4.88's it still keeps 8th gear and cruises 85mph no problem.

Sits great! Does AEV use front drop brackets on the 2.5" lift?

Looks great! I need to add a lift back to mine (removed to cross border into Canada to pass inspection to register in B.C.) but need to be careful about overall height since I will be moving to an apartment building with a under ground garage. Do you happen to know your vehicle height?

Thanks,

Nice, that's the secret to keeping the correct geometry.

I'm a fan of AEV stuff I have the same lift in my 24 JLUR on Goodyear Boulder MT 37's with AEV's pintler wheels. Mine has factory 4.88's as well, couldn't imagine it with anything less.

AEV's 2.5 lift actually ends up being closer to 3.5 then it does 2.5

Mine sat very flat and level until I added the AEV EX front bumper and Warn XD Zeon 10s. Now it has just a slight amount of rake and I like how it sits much better then before.

The white always looks good that was my second choice in color if I couldn't get the one I got.

AEV has served me well for what I need.
Simple system.

I've had 2 JLs with the AEV lift. Hope you're as happy as I have been. Congrats

We love our AEV lift. Rides, handles, and tows great. We've been up the Dalton highway, playing in the rocks in Sand Hollow, Moab, and everything in between.

AEV Lift and 37's!
