I neeeeed a lift. I really want the aev and I don't want to have to settle for something else just because I only want 2inches ( don't have the money to get 35s yet) but I'm wondering if this is going to look funny. Anyone running this or have photos?

 

It will look really funny IMHO. That lift looks perfect on a 2dr with 37's. It looks alright with 35's. Most likely silly with 33 or 32

 

ok it' look not really good i know, but i plan to put on the 37" on next spring.

i have a 4" skyjacker long arm with my stuck 32" rubi tire

 

It looks ridiculous! I lasted 2 days before I got 35's. Now it looks manageable, but I will go to 37's in the spring. Don't let that stop you though...you still need a lift before tires anyway, so do it right the first time.

 

AND you have flat flares! Sweet.

 

Hahah this is exactly what im picturing myself do. Buying the lift and going back for the tires a day after. Perhaps I should just wait until I have enough for the full package. Like u said, do it right he first time - which is why I really don't want to settle for another lift. I know there are others out there that are really great but for what I'm doing with my jeep I really want the AEV

 

If they have any holiday deals where you get cheap or free installation I'd definitely get the lift to save money. I no some places do that around Christmas and what not

 

I ran an aev 3.5" lift for a week before mounting my 35s. It looked a little high but not horrible. Makes the tires look a bit tiny. The lift will feel a bit bouncy till u put the bigger tires on. FYI. Selling those tires after u buy your 35s will help offset the cost. Paid 300$ each for 35X12.50r17 BFF km2s. At discount tire.

 

Oh. And after

Note to self: a lift does not an invincible jeep make...

 

Just received my Rusty's last week and opted to not get their shocks because I am saving for Bilsteins then after that purchase I will be saving for RK control arms then I will get my 35"ers, it is taking some serious will power to not run the credit card up this close to christmas. I plan to have eveything next year by spring to start my build.
