Default 2" lift choices ???

I am ready for some 285/75/16 BFG tires on my 2011 sport. I would like to also install a 2" lift but I cant decide on which one to get. Please help.

Any two inch lift will get the job done

Why pay for the AEV name?

Just get the Teraflex Leveling Kit. It's the same setup, great quality, and HALF the price!

Lots of people on here running this (including me) with no complaints at all!

Old Man Emu 2" coil lift is another option as well.

AEV is more comprehensive and comes with bump-stops, front and rear shock extension brackets, front brake line drop brackets..

So they are not equal in parts you get for the money. Somewhat misleading to say they are the same other then price.

Yep! I'd go AEV if I were never going to upgrade later. Since I will do a bigger lift down the road, I plan on going Teraflex spacer for now.
