According to AEV (spoke to them directly), ALL vendors are charging the same standard price. You should be able to get it for $1,700 shipped. Again, according to AEV - there is no "negotiating" the price, but who knows what kind of rapport you have with the vendor and maybe you can get it at a discount, but I doubt it.

subscribed. looking forward to seeing the install pics. Can you take before and after measurements? I'm curious what the actual lift amount will be.

x2. I'm curious just how much lift is coming off of these front and rear. I like this lift but I'm torn between a couple others due to the control arms in the rear remaining factory.

One of the benefits to this lift is the progressive rate springs. They handle additional weight very well. Between armor, gear, and my big ass the jeep stays level and lifted.

What is the difference between the SC and the ST for the non-serious off roader?
