Hey everyone, has anyone with the AEV 2.5" JLU lift experienced rear driveline vibrations? I have a heavy Jeep with an AEV tire carrier, 37" KM3 with a Borah beadlock wheel out back plus a built out cargo area so a substantial amount of weight over a stock Jeep and the rear is sitting extremely high. I called AEV to confirm the part numbers for my springs were correct because of the height difference out back. They confirmed the part numbers were correct for the 3.6L version. My Jeep has the soft top on currently and AEV stated the hardtop would squat it down more (that's a given).
I get that the suspension is designed for loaded down rigs but the height of the springs seems like an oversight. I've noticed over the last few days that the rear end is getting a driveline vibration that I'm likely going to need adjustable upper arms to correct as I am not driving my Jeep around fully laden with gear 24/7.
What arms does everyone recommend d to get the rear pinion angle dialed in for a lift over 3"? I have always used JKS components on previous Jeeps and was leaning towards those. Has anyone just replaced the upper arms or is it necessary to replace both rear lower and upper at the same time. I eventually plan on going with a full suspension system versus the kit that I have in there now. The AEV lift is a good stop gap between what I had and future plans.
Thanks in advance.
