I’ve been planning a real lift eventually once I feel I get my money’s worth out of stock tires/shocks on my Rubicon.
In the meantime, I’ve been trying to convince myself a spacer lift would be worth it…
problem is, they almost all seem like “leveling kits” with minimal/no rear lift, and I don’t mind keeping some rake.
-AEV seems like the only spacer kit with equal front/rear lift. $400. But they include carrier bearing bracket and shock extensions and sway bar links, and procal for bigger tires (though with real lift and bigger tires I was planning on a tazer).
-I kept trying to find a cheaper set of equal lift spacers and cheaper LCA geometry brackets to make an equivalent package and add a tazer, but I can’t find equal front/rear spacers for the JT, not to mention shock extensions. You can source a carrier bearing bracket and front spacers cheap, but I can’t seem to get everything together unless I’m looking in the wrong places. (Also plan on adding geometry correction brackets, there are others for cheaper as well.)
so is the AEV kit actually a pretty good deal?
Is there another way that I’m missing?
