Here are a couple more. It's difficult to get a straight on shot, other than the ones I posted.

 

Yep, here are pic of front due to go on my JK


Tighter coils are at the top.

 

Sheepdog: What is the distance from the ground to the bottom edge of the front fender? Thanks.

 

I just unpacked mine for a look-see. Damn the fronts are tall, thick, and heavy for a 2.5" kit! Should work out about right with all the extra stuff mounted to the front of mine, plus an oil pan skid plate and second battery still to come.

Hope my swaybar links come out straight! Be interesting to hear what's up with the OP's install.

 

Measurements from garage floor to front of stock fender 33.5" driver side and 33.25" on passenger side. JKUR, stock wheels and tires. Winch, LoD Bumper, rock hard skids (in front), & dual battery. It doesn't sag as much as it did with the stock springs + 1.75" spacer.

I have the same issue with the end link everything seems installed same as mine. I had my neighbor who I races sprint cars help me and he was confused, too.

On my thread in the forum RTguy who has also responded to a similar post of mine on the AEV forum mentioned that the axel does shift over and would need an adjustable track bar to fix (even-though AEV says you don't). He might be right.

Another idea I might try is loosening the bolts on everything and retightening on the ground. To get the correction brackets on and the control arms in, I had to jack up the front again and use ratchet straps to manipulate the axle. I would really like to solve this since I plan to go to silverton in 2 weeks. I'll be calling AEV monday to see if there is anything I can do. I would post my pictures, but I've been told I don't do that very well.

 

Thanks for the measurement. Looks like I'll get exactly 2.5".

I'll be installing in my buddy's garage with a nice level floor. We have about 90 years of wrenching experience between us. (Yes, we are old farts!) Hopefully we will be able to figure out what's going on with the axle and swaybar. I'm thinking maybe scrap the brackets and just buy some extended swaybar links with discos.

Hope some more folks chime in on this. Well engineered and correctly installed stuff should not look like Sheepdog's photos. AEV, are you reading this discussion?

 

It looks like the axle shifted to me. It may be the pics, but the passenger side tire looks closer the the spring. The bumpstops line up with the extremely tall bumpstop spacers off the the side like it has shifted also.

Been out looking under my Sport. Seems like the whole sway bar could easily be slid over 1/4" or so to match the new axle position. This probably would not work on a Rubi unless the E-disco unit could move.

Think I will buy an adjustable track bar and some extended sway bar links with discos. End of problem. (Or maybe the start of a new set of problems?)

 

My aev 3.5 lift was installed on my 12 jkur last week, looks like yours. I believe it's because of the disco sway bar, it doesn't move so the ends are on that angle. Mechanic said its all good.

 

I ran it by aev and they got right back to me stating it was normal. It may shift a little the other way but not a problem.
The fix is an adjustable track bar.
