great looking Jeep!
GO Jeep in Golden?

GO on Broadway in Littleton. Brandon does the aftermarket installs for the dealer and he is an AEV ace. Plus they only charged me $500 for the entire lift install....

Very nice. I'm planning on a similar setup for my 2012. How does the ride quality compare to stock?

Mine will also be my DD.

Nice ride bro! I'm jealous. My second hand 08X has a long way to go!

The lift is amazing.....the high steer kit with bilstein dampener is really, really nice. The steering feels heavy but not in a bad way, just solid, no wiggle, no wander and tracks straight as an arrow. Digging the Elkas too.

The handling kills stock. AEV lift is predictable, stable and confident feeling at the wheel.

No worries Cotton, the fun is in building them! My first Jeep was a 1976 CJ5 with a 304 V8 and a rotted out frame. It drove like a drunken hunting dog with a broken leg.

Hahaha! I know what you mean. This is my third. Two YJs prior.
None have looked that nice tho!

Awesome. Thanks for the feedback. Sounds like it handles just as I would expect from AEV.
