Thanks for the info. Nice jeep.

 

I have an 08 4 door rubicon with the 3.5 inch premium lift and it is great. Highway handling is great 85 mph no problem with 35's. offroad is very good too!

 

This is the set up I'll be doing very soon!

 

Most guys going with new driveshafts on the 4 dr autos?

 

I replaced the front drive shaft after the lift and put 40k miles on my lifted 4-door while maintaining the stock rear drive shaft with no problems at all.

 

2011 2 door Rubicon with auto trans and AEV 3.5" Premium and so far so good...no vibrations rides/handles really well. I've only had it offroad once with no DS/auto tranny clearance issues (yet).

 

I upgraded both driveshafts after the AEV 3.5" on my 4-door, it just sounded like something that would eventually need to get done anyway, for strength.

Plus, the wife can't see a driveshaft upgrade...

 

I run the 4.5" and it rides better than stock. I cant believe it. I love it.

 

I have had the 4.5 lift since Jan 10. I love it. Truth be told, I have had death wobble issues, but those were fixed with a Currie Tie Rod, and a Moog drag link end; no fault of any AEV parts. I have an upgraded front driveshaft that the U joint just twisted off and broke off the axle while going 75 on the highway, but nothing associated with the AEV parts. Everything else has been great. I did add Rock Krawler front LCA's since at the time the drop brackets didn't exist and wanted to stay clear of cam bolts. I added the drop brackets later just for the hell of it! Lol
Yea, originally the MTR's were installed wrong by 4 wheel parts when they 1st came out, but were later corrected free of charge.

 

Hey Bucklisa, you had death wobble after the AEV was installed?
That is one of the reasons I went with an AEV kit. I had bad death wobble
before instal and it feels great now. I finally have the courage again to
drive the jeep at 50 again.

What drive shafts are people putting in with the 3.5 lift?

Thanks
