Our dual sport systems will include tubular lower control arms (2" O.D. 1/4" wall with threaded bungs), Heavy wall tubular track bars (1.5" O.D. x 3/8 Wall DOM) versus our standard heavy duty solid alloy steel control arms, proper bump stops front and rear, as well as Remote Reservoir RRD Racing Shocks! They will be available in 2.5 and 3.5" lift heights, both mid arm and long arm!

The mid arm systems will include 2.0 Remote Ressy RRD Racing Shocks!

The long arm systems will include 2 5/8 Remote Ressy RRD Racing Shocks!

We are finalizing the 2 5/8 shock tunes now and will be putting the finishing touches on it at Easter Jeep Safari! We started tuning them last year at EJS. Now they have seen every season so we feel comfortable with our final package.

Our dual sport systems will not be a compromise of what we have now. They truely will be able to do it all and do it all well! Street Ride, Go Fast, High Articulation, they will do it. It is basically a continuation of our racing program all together and will be launched on our website as "Go Fast" Systems. They will also carry our abuse proof lifetime warranty, just like our other systems.

Off-Road.com already has one in their hands for review!

That kit retails for $2397.99, the trackbar retails for $256.99. You do not need to do anything to make this highway/off road friendly. TeraFlex designs our kits to handle great on/off road. Unless you want to drive fast off road, then you add some Fox shocks with TeraFlex SpeedBumps.

Everyone says AEV is over priced. Yet Rock Krawler, and Tera Flex is way more expensive.
AEV-1800
Rock Krawler-1700 without shocks.
Teraflex- 2400
Just help me understand.

It's overpriced for what you get. You re use your stock arms with the aev kit whereas the RK kit give la you adj control arms. Aev kit actually flexes pretty well if you tinker with it.
