It's well worth it in my opinion. I'm pretty confident you'll love it.

I currently have the AEV 2.5" and I think I want to go up to the 3.5". Hopefully no DS issues with that.

X2, their stuff is pricy but it's quality. I wish I did it right the first time instead of having to slowly piece stuff together coming from my RC lift. It's well worth the investment.

Why the 3.5" for 35s?

Planning on going with 37's in future and I don't really like the stance of my AEV 2.5" with 35's. Looks too squatty to me.

i called and spoke with matson. for the unlimited, he recommended the 3.5" for all the obvious reasons.

by the time you do bumpers, fenders, winch, armor etc he said i will be happy i went with the 3.5" and that the 2.5" is a great fit for the jk. plus i could always go to 37s.
