  1. AEV 2.5" DualSport on Rubicon Diesel

    @Steven_B Could you share your wheel offset and if you have any spacers? I’ve got the same lift on the sport s diesel and want to make sure I don’t have rubbing when steering when I get 37’s. Im hoping to get a +0 to +25mm offset so I don’t have too much tire sticking out spraying rocks at my...
  2. Steering Gear Replacement, Help!

    @ShadowsPapa That is a lot to dissect and I appreciate the help. I had a feeling there could be more to this. I wish I could have you come drive it to see what you thought. The issue didn’t become apparent to me until well after the lift was installed and I had finally corrected the toe issue...
  3. Steering Gear Replacement, Help!

    Hey Jeep peeps, please bear with me, as there is some back story that will help put my current issue in context. Last summer, I installed the AEV overland 2.5 inch lift on my '22 JT Sport S Diesel. I did the install myself, and we love the feel and ride. However, I made a mistake that night...
  4. Help with adjusting/ understand toe after lift

    @BumbleBee and @OHJeeper I understood what you guys meant, the original video I saw was done on a JTR and it was a well done video, apart from the misinformation. Not only does he say to do the rear the video shows him measuring the front of the rear tires. I hesitate to put it on here for you...
  5. Help with adjusting/ understand toe after lift

    @Lunentucker That video was very helpful, especially in comparison to the video I originally watched which I double checked, and has the guy comparing the fronte and rear tires. I should’ve been able to figure that out. @OHJeeper thanks for the tool suggestion! I’m gonna use a lug on the...
  6. Help with adjusting/ understand toe after lift

    The lift came with caster correction brackets that mounted to the front control arms. I’ll try a tool for better measurements. Now that I’m thinking about this more wouldn’t it also make sense to measure between the front wheels on the front and back of them? Too much or too little toe should...
  7. Help with adjusting/ understand toe after lift

    A few months ago I installed the AEV 2.5 suspension lift on my ā€˜22 Sport S Diesel. After a long day rolling around on the floor, the last step was to correct the steering wheel which after installation of the lift is turned to the left slightly when the wheels are straight. I did my best , or...
  8. A novice installs AEV DualSport RT Suspension Kit - DIY writeup w/ photos

    Well I survived the install. The torquing was rough! Had no issues and followed the tips I found on here. One other tip I came up with was installing the front bump stop extenders simultaneously with the front coil. That allowed the extra 4 inches or so of clearance for the longer coil. Took me...
  9. A novice installs AEV DualSport RT Suspension Kit - DIY writeup w/ photos

    thank you, I was actually wondering about that since the instructions mention the different thread pitch but don’t say what to do about it. I went through the list on the bag and every step in the instructions. I have everything in the bag and an extra washer that has JLX stamped on it. It’s...
  10. A novice installs AEV DualSport RT Suspension Kit - DIY writeup w/ photos

    This might be asking a lot, but does anyone know the list of hardware that is supposed to be in the bag? It seems the number one tip on several write ups is to make sure all the hardware is correct. But I don't know what to compare it against before I have things taken apart. I am going to...
  11. 2" mopar lift vs 2.5" AEV Dual Sport

    good info. Are you on the AEV or Mopar? Is one better than the other for around town ride quality? My biggest disappointment with this truck has been the stock suspension hitting front bump stops way too easily on road driving. It’s a bit bouncy. So I’m hoping the kit will help with that too.
  12. 2" mopar lift vs 2.5" AEV Dual Sport

    Is there a concern as far as safety/functionality goes with the AEV dual sport lift on 33s? Is the only issue less clearance and looking like tiny tires? The goal would to be eventually put 35s or 37s on but can I do the lift with 33s until then without problems?
  13. 2" mopar lift vs 2.5" AEV Dual Sport

    Did you have any luck finding anything? I’m looking to do the same. Sport diesel with 33s. My tires just have way too much life left to replace them but I’m tired of waiting for the lift.
  14. Tacoma vs. Gladiator

    I had a 2007 Tacoma that I bought from the original owner in 2015. It had 44k on it. I did all the work on it myself and enjoyed doing it. It was a manual transmission and I really had to wind it up to feel like it had any power. After I sold it for the second kid I dreamt of the new TRD Pro. I...
