Thinking about getting the AEV Dualsport 2.5" lift to replace my Mopar lift and have this same question since the AEV comes with the brackets and I have the longer LCAs found in the Mopar kit.
It sounds like you can run both the longer Mopar lift LCAs and the AEV brackets - is there any more...
Mine seems to have randomly stopped doing this - haven't taken it in anywhere or really done anything to try and address it.
I live in Colorado and it's been pretty snowy lately so I've had the 4WD engaged a few times...I remember someone saying something about engaging 4WD seeming to have...
Interesting...so do you think you would have been better off using the 2in lift version? Do you think those with the 2in Mopar lift would be better off buying the stock Gladiator version?
Hmmm, that is a bummer! I had hoped the limitation on travel wouldn't be too much, I can deal with a little loss there but half is quite a bit.
Really appreciate you testing this out - I was actually going to place my order today but may wait a little given this update and see what your final...
Still out in Wyoming making our way back to Colorado after picking up our GoFast Camper last week, but I got an update from Timber Grove and it looks like the new mounts are ready to go and available on the Timber Grove website!
From what I can tell, there is one designed around the...
Just picked the camper up this morning - such an awesome group of people, and the camper is amazing! So stoked to have this thing, can't wait to put it to use!
Hopefully today or early next week there will be an update from Timber Grove on the mounts, def looking forward to trying that product...
Got another update from Timber Grove this afternoon - the adjustable mounts are back from being laser cut and are now off to go through the forming process. Steven said they should be back by Friday so will hopefully have another update then.
I will be in Montana for the rest of the week and...
Also saw that review...stacking doesn't make sense and they seem to think that the bags work by expanding up and down within the springs, which isn't correct as far as I understand it (they work by expanding sideways into the springs).
All of this is why the Airlift situation is very unclear...
Haha well you are def correct about how the bags work - I do think its possible though that the bags expanding against a smaller percentage of the taller springs might still impact how well they work.
If you're not trying to support a TON of weight and just need a little extra stiffness, it...
My understanding is that the Gladiator kit is the correct width, and that the width is the most important factor as the air bags function by expanding outward into the springs to stiffen them.
I also think the performance would be impacted due to how much taller the springs are with the lift...
No, still very unclear on which Airlift kit/combination of products will work best with the 2in Mopar lift. It seems like no option is quite right, and I'm not one for going with products that "might work OK".
At this point, I am likely going to be going with the Timber Grove kit discussed in...
Apparently they are actually 4.5 inches in diameter instead if the 5 inches that the Gladiator bags are. It has also been said by Airlift themselves that the more important dimension is the width, as the bags work via pressure from expanding sideways against the springs rather than expanding up...
Got an update from Steve at Timber Grove - he said he's come up with a modular type mounting system for his air suspension setup that has interchangeable parts to allow it to accommodate different lift heights. He said he is sending it off to get laser cut and will let me know when the finished...
I sent the measurement info over to Timber Grove (my "ridge height" measurement with the RSI Smartcap was about 5.75").
Steve said he would be working on a mount to accommodate lift heights this weekend and that he will get back to me next week to let me know what he comes up with.
Awesome, thanks so much for doing that!
I will pass this measurement along to Timber Grove. I have an RSI Smartcap on my Jeep so my "normal ride height" measurement will also be a little skewed. I may just take it and send it over to Timber Grove with the caveat that I have more than stock...
So I heard back from Steve at Timber Grove and he provided some good info and answers to some of the questions I had:
1) No photos available of the new version of the bags as he has not done many Gladiators thus far.
2) Like another member mentioned in this thread, he is working on a mount for...
