Default AEV 2" Spacer Lift Pic request

Been going back and forth on some type of lift or leveling kit. I want to go more than the leveling kit, but like the idea of getting rid of the rake, while adding a little lift. LIke the look of the 2.5" lifts, but the wife told me that she didn't want me to lift it due to putting kids in and getting in herself, so something less than that is preferred. AEV seems to have the best of both worlds that I am looking for and hopefully I won't piss off the wife too much. She already looked at me funny when I put on 33's! I hope to be able to do this, but the wife is yelling for new carpet, countertops, etc.....

Anyway, any pics, prefer with stock wheels and 33's, but others are appreciated.

Installation issues? Other issues? Quality seems to be with this company of course, but I need to ask anyway?

I tried search, but failed to find anything, sorry if this has been done.

Just put the AEV 2" spacer kit on my 2012 yesterday. No problems at all. The kit is great quality. I got 2" in the front and 1" in the rear from this kit. I think this kit is perfectly proportioned for 33's. I have GY Duratrac 33's and MB72 wheels.

I've been trying to decide on a lift myself... Still might go with a 2.5" spring lift but this looks good.

Are those 15" MB 72's?

This AEV kit is basically a Budget Boost, so all the Jeeps on 2"-2 1/2" coil spring spacers would look the same...
