Been meaning to post for a minute.

I was a victim if KCs Black Friday sale.

Pair of Flex Era 4s
50in Gravity Pro 6 Light Bar
Pair of Slimlite LEDs

I work overseas but I should finally be heading home next week so I've got a bit of work cut out for me when I get back.

Got the AEV 2" spacer lift for Mojave. Hard item to find on sale, ended getting a 10% off w/ free shipping deal at Off road warehouse. Arrives today, Now I have to decide what size tires to put on.

I had a backorder for the lift at @Quadratec for $479 in October, but they canceled it due to the parts being unavailable. @Quadratec then relisted the same item 2 weeks later for $110 more.
Nice - I've been looking ... was told they never go on sale.

Thanks for the honest feedback and good pics!. Was hoping they were at least made in North America. I think I may go a different route. I just don't want to break body bolts or drill the frame.
I returned them yesterday. The fitment was poor and I couldn’t get them to fit symmetrical on both sides after multiple remounts. The passenger side has a bracket on the frame that prevents the corresponding rail bracket from being properly secured (I don’t see how Bestop missed that). I couldn’t close a 1” gap at the rear of the drivers side rail. Finally, the passenger side began digging into the side of my Jeep eating away at the paint and metal. To Bestop’s credit, they were great to work with and the return was easy.

Purchased Quadrate Morphic wheels (they were actually cheaper AFTER Black Friday).

Thank you for following up and posting this. I hope others looking to buy them find your post first.

They haven't shipped yet. The black friday sale was a pre-order with shipment expected in December. Recently got an email form them saying production was behind schedule and they were still hoping to ship by the end of the month

My staging area, still having a faint smell of paint that day.

New Summit bumper sans sliders, I took care of those the next day, as my fenders needed some trimming to make it work and it was getting dark.

Sliders on, dremel and a template took care of the fender real quick.
