Just installed my 3.5 AEV with the KM2's and it rides great! Very complete kit. I have not gotten out yet, but it is due soon...

And yes, that is an LOD shorty rear bumper integrated to the door... It is great!

x2 on that. I love my OME lift for what kind of off-roading I do. I think their products are well thought out and very well designed.

The EVO Coilover kit that he has is a fully adjustable lift kit that can be ~3"-5" of lift with simple adjustments of the coilover. This is one of the cool things about coilovers. Not only do you gain huge wheel travel and really the best ride quality on and off road, but you have the ability to adjust your lift height to whatever you want. You can even have it 3" one day and if you feel like it, you could adjust it to 4 or 5" the next day in an hour or so with some simple tools.

Wow that's awesome!!! Thanks for info!! But I was checking out your website and since I'm mostly riding on road would your EVO-ENFORCER-KIT be right for me or would the long arm kit be better?

Honestly on road is where ride quality of a lift kit is most important. Off road JKs are going so slow that most vehicle dynamics are lost a such a slow speeds, for the most part.

Either the EVO Enforcer or the EVO DoubleD long arm are really good on and off road. Typically most people feel a long arm is a better ride quality on the road, but I dont really notice too much difference between these two systems, I have the Enforcer 2.0 on my personal JK. I think the springs contribute the most to ride quality (good or bad), and secondly the shocks to control the spring. Stiffer the spring, the stiffer the shock needs to be to control the spring and so on...

Give me a call and I can better explain the advantages of each and help you figure out what is best for your needs.
