I had the steering stabilizer on the stock tie rod and it helped a little. The biggest difference in my experience was the tie rod and drag link. Heavier duty and have really tightened up the steering.
It's a great lift and very high quality. With AEV, you know you're getting a good product. I have no complaints in ride quality and no squeaks etc. It should fit your needs just fine and at a fraction of the cost.

I am contemplating moving to a coil lift just because I want a little more lift to 3" instead of just 2.
Glad you had fun! Phoenix resident here as well. Been meaning to take the Gladiator up there and stretch it’s legs. Doesn’t surprise me how busy it is though!
Did this kit level it out pretty much? I have the AEV 2" spacer kit but looking to move to the 2.5" standard load springs all around. Yours looks great. I see you have a RTT so it may still have rake with nothing loaded? I just have a rack.
So I've been trying to source a Rubicon hood for my Sport for awhile and have had no luck. I do like the vented look even though they're non functional on the Rubicons. I've seen some aftermarket vents that look similar and functional. Of course cutting the hood is necessary but that's something...
Thanks! I actually ordered an oem bezel for the passenger side. So no cutting or anything like that. It's not a hard job to do, but a tedious task removing the original bezel and swapping in the new bezel with the cutout.
The bezel was $13 from my local dealer. Part # is 68432090AA. You would...
Looking to move away from my AEV 2" spacers to a true coil spring lift. The Dobinsons caught my eye. I want a 2.5-3" lift under standard load and the Dobinsons looked to fit the bill.
Anyone using their springs and can chime in on quality and ride? Thanks.
