New Eco diesel owner help/advise

[Live2Crawl]

hey guys new to gladiators, not new to jeeps (have a 06 Tj 5.7 on 38.5, and a 6.4 Jk on 39.5 iroks) So its a 2023 Rubicon, I want to run a 39.5 irok on this as well, I want to run the full width Aev bumper, is a 4.5" lift enough? I think that's kinda what I have come up with in math, that being said I was going to run the AEV3" high capacity with a spacer, but is there a better option I would like some input or pics if anyone else has this setup 39.5 iroks with aev full width,, any opinions on the best 4.5" lift for overlanding, and deep snow, road trips, only mods so far is the decked with the cargo slide and evo adventure topper, also going to run 4:88 I think and rear bumper with full spare and fuel so its gonna be heavy. oh and one last thing a lot of the good shops I delt with pre covid are gone, is there a good shop to order all the parts from that anyone can recommend, who is good and rocks support on the forum?

Metalcloak and Clayton are both fairly active on the forum. Both have diesel specific lifts but I will say clayton is generally better for heavy rigs

Looks like a monster of a truck. Congrats. How much usable travel are you getting in the front and rear? Looks like you could stuff that tire quite easily in the fenders.

After all that, still keeping the original wire antenna.

The OG antenna would be the last thing to go on mine. It actually does serve a purpose aside from radio signals.
