Default AEV Procal / Extending Drive Shaft ...

Dropped off my 2013 JK with 9miles on it for its transformation ... get her back in a few days ... 2 quickies ... I am skipping 35's and going straight to 37's on a 17inch rim ... guys at my shop are suggesting the AEV Procal to ensure my stabil-itrack will not lock the jeep after after the 4inch lift and tires are on ... they said they did 2 2013's recently and the stabil-itrack tripped off and shut the jeep down ... make sense ?? Secondly, they are not sure until they begin the work, but are saying they may have to modifty the stock driveshaft, e-longate it ??


Feedback pls ... thanks guys

yes both sound reasonable. You for sure will need the procal if for nothing else to calibrate speedo.

You want the AEV Procal to make sure your speedometer and odometer are accurate. You don't need to lengthen your driveshafts, you need to replace them with double cardan style driveshafts like from Adams Driveshaft or any of the other driveshaft shops. The stock driveshafts especially the front were not meant for that kind of lift.
