AEV 2" Spacer Lift

[KevinM60]

I have their click torque wrenches, which from as far as I could gather from reviews are just as accurate as expensive models.

They do have some good prices and deals on sale.
My friends and neighbors who shop there give them good reviews.

Yea this is not my 1st rodeo. All I can say is buy it yourself and see what you think.

Every bolt was torqued back down to specifications. There is a reason Mopar chose to make the SPRING ISOLATOR out of molded rubber vs polyurethane.

I’m pretty picky and it’s possible many people wouldn’t notice the difference but I do.

I’m favoring the Mopar lift which retains the factory SPRING ISOLATORS. Once I have that installed I will compare ride quality and suspension noise.

If your suspension rattles something is loose. Your springs are tight in the buckets at full droop with the sway bar connected. Driving around at ride height there's no way the springs or spacers are rattling. A slight increase in nvh could happen from changing out the rubber isolators to a poly spacer but there is no chance they rattle. I run the aev kit on my mojave and they don't rattle even when all 4 tires leave the ground or I'm running washboards at 70+mph. That's just not how the suspension works.

Alright guys, I’ve got the 2” lift waiting to install and I also was able to snag a brand new set of MetalCloak LCAs for $150. My question is, what length should I set the LCAs to for the 2” lift? The MetalCloak install instructions say 24” eye to eye for their 3.5” lift to get 6 degrees of castor. From what I have read it seems like 6 degrees is what people desire, but I'm not sure what to set the LCAs at since it’s 1.5” shorter of a lift.

Thanks for any help!

If you have an IPhone, check the pinion angle with the measure function before the lift. Adjust the LCAs after the lift to achieve the same angle.

Good idea! Although are castor and pinion angle the same? I thought I remember reading somewhere they aren’t, but I could be totally wrong. Honestly new to Jeeps and lifting vehicles in general.
