Look great ? I just purchased evo 2.5. Currently have Aev spacer. Ride better or same ?
Thanks! It rides very much the same but quite a bit taller. I’m very happy with the EVO springs.

I was on the fence about over a few different options. This thread made me decide to go with the EVO 2.5! I am just having a hard time figuring out the difference between the Enforcer and Element lifts...
I have a 2020 Gladiator Altitude with stock bumpers and no accessories & 35s, I would love it to sit level, so I am guessing I will need to add a spacer in the front also.

Can anyone who put the EVO 2.5 lift in tell me if the springs were real long (like the Synergy) requiring the springs to be compressed to get them in?

They were... I had to push my weight down on them and I used a ratchet strap to hold it in place... on the front. The rear I used a jack to do it pushing the axle down from the top. I have a video of the install to show you the amount of compressing you might need. I didn't need a lot- just a couple of inches to get it to slip in.

From speaking with EVO these are the same kits. They just package the Enforcer up to be an all inclusive ready to purchase package without worrying about the Stage 1, 2, 3 etc. and call it the Element. It's basically their answer to the 2 "Mopar factory lift.

Anyone with their 2.5” lift notice the driver side rear is a little lower than passenger side?

The coils were installed correctly per corner. Double checked the part numbers.

Great looking ride!

Did you happen to have to purchase the misalignment shock adapters for the Mojave? I just purchased these same shocks, but unsure if I need to get the adapters for it even though it mentions they're for the coilovers.

Thanks!

No spacers. That was about 5 mo after install. I’ve since went to the Clayton 3.5. Evo was great though, I felt like it settled just a hair and wanted a little more height. It’s only fractionally higher with Clayton 3.5.
What’s your comparison on the two lifts? Which gives you the over all better road manners?

no major difference in my opinion. Nothing notable. I would say the lower lift will give you marginally better manners.

Damn, that looks good dude. So after almost a year running this tell me your thoughts. Did it settle a lot? How’s the ride?

Did you ever get this resolved? I'm having the same problem . Full tank of gas and my driver rear is still lower.
