Default Offroad Evolution Coilovers getting installed this week!

Well, finally dropped off my baby at Offroad Evolution this morning. Extremely excited to get her back. After getting to check out a bunch of EVO lifted JK's at Rocktoberfest I just couldn't wait any longer.

Just had to publicly give them a huge thumbs up, Andrew and the guys were really helpful from the start. Including answering all my questions in my 10-15 emails over the past couple weeks.

Here is what I went with:

Front 12" Coilovers
Evo Short arms
Front 1310 Drive Line
Rear 4" Evo Springs
Rear King 2.5" Shocks
Procomp 7105 17" Wheels
Goodyear MTR Kevlar 37" Tires
5.13 Gears
Evo 44 Magnum Axle Sleeves
Evo C2 Axle Gussets

Love to hear the thoughts from any others here who have anything similar.

By the way, WOL, saw your awesome ride down there when I dropped off. Best looking jeep there!. What are you having done?

I know how you are feeling, my JK has been there for a week and I saw it's updates on ORE's Facebook page. Sounds like you rig will be another Offroad Evo winner!

Man. Getting really excited now! Don't think it'll sink in until I drive it home.

I couldn't do it right now anyway, but have you compared your setup to a similar setup that also has their rear coilover system? Just curious...

Yeah two other setups one which was like ours but with a Full Traction Suspension LCA and the other with ORE Coil Overs front & rear. I can tell you that it only gets better. The setup like ours with the LCA was buttery smooth but the setup with coil overs front and rear was like floating on cloud!

That's awesome. Rears are definitely in the books eventually. Love the evo long arm kit with envy links too. Gotta set aside a few more pennies first though. Lol

Thanks for the info sm_rubi.
