Lift Kit for JL Rubicon

Good afternoon!

I have my heart set on an AEV 2.5" Dual Sport lift that I would like to purchase in the next week or two. Does anyone here have experience with this lift, whether it be good or bad?

I considered this but was told that their geometry correction brackets aren’t great. Going with metal cloak game changer lift instead

What’s the purpose of lifting? How much extra eight have you added to the vehicle?

No significant extra weight has been added to the vehicle, it is for ground clearance and better articulation of the 35" tires I am planning on running.

To answer the original question, the AEV 2.5” lift is a very good product. Upon its original release for the JK I was sold on it. Another option is build your own OldManEmu setup .

If yours is not a Rubicon trim make sure to add protection (rocker guards and belly skids).

Alrighty, I will check that company out, I have never heard of them before. Thank you!

I was talking with the local Jeep group I went out with this past weekend and several of the members suggested I look at Clayton Offroad when it came time to consider lifts for my JLUR. They are local to me, which is nice, and seem to be well regarded if not that well known.

Those guys were second on my list of kits to go with. I was looking at their Rocksport lift kit.

Those are great kits I highly recommended them . You don’t need the ma travel unless rock crawling.

I have a 2020 JLURD on order and with all the reading and research and reviews I will hands down be putting a 2.5" MC Game Changer on mine. Plus a military discount and hopes that in the upcoming weeks maybe some additional discounts.
