It's got a lift, but its the bump stops that control the tuck. I've done some more trimming of the flares while I wait for higher/wide ones.No lift? Still, if you turn during flex, it seems no room to do it. If you really don't want to lift it, might be easier to get aftermarket high fenders.
I have some friends running 37s with no lift on export Rubicons, but they've all got high fenders to get it right.
I didn’t use any bump stop extensions. Just what was in the AEV kit. It would have rubbed on full articulation. Hence the high top fenders. It gives me additional clearance. In addition, it’s wider, so it covers the poke.lift Kit comes with bump stop extensions?
this kit? JL 2.5" DualSport RT Suspension - American Expedition Vehicles - AEV (aev-conversions.com) looks like it has bump stop extensions.I didn’t use any bump stop extensions.

yep, have trimmed the lip more. Just waiting on Rugged Ridge fenders.Just watched your video... it’s rubbing real bad on yours. I don’t think the 2” bump stop will cut it. It’ll eventually destroy your fender. If you don’t want to get a bigger lift or change your fenders, you can tear off the black part of your underside fender and then reinforce it with American Adventure Lab’s fender reinforcement and LED light.
a. That is the kit I am using. I stand corrected in that there is a bump stop extension although at the time, it didn’t look that much different from the stock one.this kit?

looks great.As an export Wrangler, to get full articulation on 37s, I run a 2.5” lift with US specced high top fenders. Rims are a 17” with -4.75 backspacing.
I think JeepKonnections should have them for sale. They shipped their first set here because of me. But they complained about the size of the box. It’s like the size of half a small car.looks great.
Would you mind share where did you get the fender from?
