Those work great, had a set on the front on my JL. The rear is not really necessary, the front helps as it allows you to push the axle and help improve steering a bit. Metalcloak occasionally runs a 10% off with free shipping, matching those up with their front adjustable track bar might be a good way to go.
Thanks man it helps to talk to actual people about stuff. Sometimes researching threads is a dead end. For instance, I was reading about regearing for 37s on the mojave... the thread ends with about 60 percent of folks saying they didnt need to regear with about 40 percent of people saying its a must lol.

I know exactly what you mean, sometimes too much information is just as bad as no information.
By the way I think those that say 37 inch tires and no regearing are just wrong. BUT, its their rig, if it works for them, oh well.

Keep it simple. 2” AEV kit with Geo brackets set to the middle setting for better caster. I’ll probably upgrade the stabilizer as soon as they’re more readily available.

Thanks. I keep debating on a few things. I think the first thing i do before the AEV lift is put the 35''s on it and see how it drives out on the trail and handles going fast on the dirt and sand. That way i can tell exactly what the lift changes once i get to know the bigger tires.

Yep, that’s my conundrum. I’m definitely going with BFG KO2’s, just not sure if I “need” the AEV 1.5 along with the Daystar 3/4. I do like the leveling that that setup provides, but do I have to have it???

From what i have read one can put 35's on the Mojave and it should be fine. If one goes up to 37's then there would be some rubbing, thus the need for the AEV lift.

Yeah im going to noodle it for a few days and ill post here what i end up ordering. 35s might look better without the lift is my guess. But will it be anymore capable with the 2 inch lift and 35s... we shall see

Did you have any rubbing with the 37’s and no lift? Assuming you haven’t re geared, what’s your take on how it rides without a regear?

I’ve got a 2021 Mojave with 37’s and I run both AEV’s 2” Mojave lift with their relocation brackets. The truck has excellent road manners. What sold me on the relocation brackets was AEV’s video where they are basically drifting a 392 Rubicon at high speed, which was running both their lift and the relocation brackets. I want my truck to be capable off road but I need it to be able to make emergency maneuvers at highway speeds. Not that I make it a habit, but an emergency maneuver should not induce a bigger emergency, in my opinion. I’ve been super happy all the way around.

I’ve also got adjustable track bars, the Fox ATS steering stabilizer, along with Metal Cloak’s steering sector shaft brace. The truck rides like stock even with 37’s and it drives with two fingers down the road. I originally went with Icon track bars but now am swapping the rear for Metal Cloak’s since it will accommodate up to a 38”spare tire, as I’m getting ready to go with a full size matching spare in the near future. Other than that, super happy with AEV and Metal Cloak.

IMO you have a very expensive set up with those fox bypass on a Mohave. Run a set of 285 75 17 toyos and be happy. They are 34” and about 7 pounds lighter than the 35’s and you never know the difference. Maybe a small Level spacer kit. Done.

The beauty of the AEV Mojave lift is that you maintain all of the factory springs and Fox shocks, but they put all the correct geometry back in alignment along with 2” of lift.
