I've talked with someone who installed the AEV 2.0" spacer lift and they claimed that it did level out JK and showed a pic.

white one is AEV 2" with Warn VR10000 and front skid plate. Billet is 1.5" TF performance coil kit with additional 3/4" spacers up front and 1/2" spacers in the rear due to sag also VR10000 winch up front but no skid plate. Both have Rockhard 4x4 winch plates. both 2014's. Mine is level.

Mine sits just like the billet jeep. teraflex leveling and 18/59 springs. you can see the slight rake of the aev. not a big deal, just know that you will get rake. however, not as much as stock.

you can run a level anywhere on the length of the rubi rail and it is completely level.

Must be an optical illusion then, the rear of the rubi looks higher. ha ha. So, have you "leveled" the billet to see if it sits level?

adding the 3/4" puck up front and the 1/2" puck in the back leveled it really well. This is my second tera flex performance coil kit on an unlimited and both sagged right away. The front on the billiet right away and the back shortly after. TF did send pucks but only 1/2" for the front so we had to get some 3/4" otherwise it would have had rake again. Both kits did great in Moab. AEV 2" sits a little higher all the way around tho it is just 2" spacers. the front on the TF one has the tf 2" springs in addition to the 3/4" spacers so it should sit 3/4" higher but it does not.

Ahhhhh, I have the teraflex spacer level, I guess that's why mine sits like it does. It is perfect for what I do, Im wondering now, if the spacer kit I have sits the same as the aev because im using the stock 18/59 springs. not the teraflex springs.....Im a fan of using stock JEEP springs. I like the aev 2", teraflex leveling and budget boost systems. cheaper and all around more effective in carrying weight than a lot of aftermarket springs besides say OME, but then if your empty the OME rides stiffer....great compromise I think. plus less sag.

How about the Rough Country 2.5" Series II kit??

I'm trying to decide on a leveling kit and my parts guy recommended the Rough Country 2.5" Series II.

2.5in Series II Suspension Lift Kit for 07-14 Jeep JK Wrangler | Rough Country Suspension Systems

It looks to be a very complete kit at a great price. I am also considering the Teraflex 2.5" Lift Kit w/o shocks but it doesn't have as many relocation brackets so I'm a bit confused if it's adequate. It's also much more expensive than the RC but would likely improve offroad handling. I want to alter the factory geometry as little as possible. My JK will be used for camping expeditions on light to moderate off road trails and in the winter will be used on unplowed cottage roads to access snowshoe/skiing trails. I don't foresee lifting my JK and if so it would be after the warranty is up but I will likely upgrade shocks and coils. Tires size will be 265/75r16 with no plans on going larger.


Thanks for the advice.

Teraflex all the way!! I've been slowly upgrading everything to Teraflex my latest was front track bar. Everything thing they make is top of the line!!

Any truth to the rumour that Teraflex is in receivership??
