I really enjoyed this comparison. After a LOT of research I opted for the AEV 2.5 lift on my JK and love it. It’s my daily driver, so I wanted a great ride on-road and capable off-road. I agree with your assessment on washboards, so I drop my tire pressure about 10 psi for a smoother ride...it’s the trade off I made for the on-road performance. I was also on a limited budget and I wanted the best bang for the buck. Last but certainly not least, I wanted a kit which I could install by myself, without any drilling or welding, all on a weekend. I was not disappointed in my decision.

I recently purchased a 2021 JL (2-door) Rubicon and had the dealer install the AEV DualSport RT suspension. When the mechanic did an alignment, he commented that it might benefit from a front adjustable track bar. I noticed that the jeep was a little "darty", but it still handled better than my old TJ. My wheels and 35" tires were on backorder so the salesman suggested that I purchase a track bar and he would have it installed and re-aligned when they installed the wheels & tires. I purchased a JKS HD Adjustable Track Bar and took it back to the dealer to have it installed and aligned. WOW! Night and day difference. I haven't been off-road yet, but the on-road manners are now perfect.

I’m a newish Jeep owner, 2021. I researched lift kits, watched reviews and decided to go with an Icon Stage 3 kit. One of the main reasons I picked Icon was I never installed one before and it tied for best instructions on a highly rated/reviewed KZbin lift kit review. So, I rented garage space, and got going. The instructions for rear springs: noted part number printed right side up to ensure that the spring are not installed upside down. When in fact it was printed upside down. We were able to find a professional mechanic and they confirmed they were printed upside down. Again as a first timer, I would have assumed the instructions were correct, installed upside down, and assume the result would have been significant and costly (with responsibility and cost on me). Two other things went wrong: (1) front lower link kit, the brake line bolt on their bracket snapped off after minor tightening (by hand); (2) the rear shock (axle side) pulled the sleeve from the shock into the hole which proceeded to snap the bolt. ICON did send a replacement bushing/sleeve for the shock, requested I send them pictures to prove. Maybe this is considered normal, or just to pass along.

For example, I ditched my Rock Krawler control arms and track bars because they kept coming loose and cannot be adjusted on the vehicle. Jam nuts are just a PITA to deal with. I swapped everything out for Synergy stuff which is adjustable on the vehicle - a huge benefit that does not often get considered!

It would have been really cool if you could do a long term update on these suspension. Which one holds up the best in the long run? Suspensions tend to settle over time.

Thank you so much for gathering some useful data in such a scientific manner. I wish I would have seen this before buying my lift for my 2018 JLUR. Not that I would have bought a different lift necessarily, but having this comparison of price, performance, actual height increase, etc, would have helped me make my decision easier with less confusion and feel like I'm blindly trusting advice I got from other people. When I'm selecting parts for my Jeep, I want to compare the pros and cons of each design and manufacturer. Thank you for investing your time in providing this analysis for us. I got a Rusty's Off-Road 3.75 Advanced lift, with all 8 adjustable control arms and adjustable track bars. I had to do ALOT of adjustments and fine-tuning over months to get it dialed in. I probably should have just gotten a simpler kit with just lower adjustable control arms (necessary to get the caster angle back to where it needs to be (when the pinion is at factory angle, the caster is also factory angle and it will drive great). I don't regret going all-in with so much adjustability, as when I knock something out of alignment, I can adjust int back into my preferred spec, so that is worth it, as I typically have to put it up on a rack at the alignment shop after the more aggressive wheeling trips to get things back where they need to be for daily driver use. Yup, My rig is my daily driver and weekend wheeler. I love the challenge of balancing on-road and off-road performance.

You left out a very nice lift kit. Metalcloak Game Changer

That was really well done Brad. Assessing what I will be doing, what is most important, what will maintenance look like to me are realy important to consider. I enjoyed your exploration of what each of the lifts characteristics do in the different scenarios. That realy helps people to match up their usage model to the best system for them. Well done, and well said. Be safe and keep up the good work.

Nice video I would have loved this when I was searching for a lift for my JK but I believe I still would have gone with Metal Cloak game changer. Another nice detail video. Great watching thanks.

An excellent two part series. Awesome job. I think I speak on behalf of all analytical people who watched - this is the Jeeping content we are after.

I purchased the 2.5” kit from teraflex back in October. With Corona virus and the CNC machines going down at the falcon factory I’m still waiting for the shocks. This video gives me reassurance of a solid purchase though!

Great review! I, too, have the Dynatrac EnduroSport kit on my 2019 2L JLUR, and it works great for my type of driving. Glad you opted to break up the off-road category and get some opinions from the other drivers. Thank you!

Did you add anything else to the kit?
@Trenchmedias2 жыл бұрын
Thanks man! You made go with TeraFlex. I went with the CT3 Kit with the 3.3 adjustable shocks. Also went ahead did the 2.2 adjustable steering stabilizer. Thanks again!!

This really helped me out. I'm not looking for a rock crawling set up, but a competent off-road/mild-to-medium ride.

Nice ! I have Teraflex on my Cherokee Trailhawk. It is the ONLY one that comes with shock extensions. Love it. I had rough country, it was good but the anti dive and anti squat didn't feel right. Swapping for teraflex fixed all that.

Can we please get a JT version of this comparison? I don’t know how you got ahold of 6 wranglers but gladiators would be helpful to compare!

I think this is really a cooking show, with camping on the side! I love it! I use to live in Albuquerque, but upon retirement I found myself back in Florida. Would've been awesome to do out there. I really enjoy your channel Brad!

Thanks for doing this review. As I struggle to find the right suspension for me this helped me out a lot. Unfortunately, after watching this review I decided to go with the Dynatrac only to find out they do not make a kit for the Ecodiesel. So I went with my #2 choice AEV, judging from the review this will be the right choice. Love the channel and thanks for what you are doing for the Jeep community.

How you liking that lift, bro? After watching this video, I'm leaning AEV, but I think I'm gonna go with the #" with the heavier springs. We're pretty heavy when we head out adventuring.
@jamminjeeper58543 жыл бұрын
Thanks for that video comparison. I guess all I need now is which one for the added weight of bumpers, skid plates, and gear. I'd been leaning to MetalCloak for some time hmmm

What an amazing opportunity! And I'm sure a lot of hard work behind the scenes putting this all together! A video on how this all happened in the works? Also, will there be available a chart showing all the listings/rankings and prices? Love your work - you are getting better and Better! Thank You!

Nice job Brad! I have been lifting Jeeps for a long time and I was pretty much on board. I think as you modify the Jeeps more the outcome would have changed a little, but for what you tested, great job. We could write a book about suspension dynamics once the Jeeps change from stock!
@C8sorbs4 жыл бұрын
Hey, AEV scored big! I agree and after 3k miles on AEV under my 2-DR JLR it has settled nicely. I also use a Terra Flex steering stabilizer so agree that they make great stuff too. Great review!

Great videos. Suggestion for a future video: Improved 3.6l Wrangler low range power upgrades. I just bought 2016 Wrangler Unlimited and took it on a trip. I was surprised by two things. 1) how little low end torque there was at highway speeds around 1,500 rpm. 2) the lack of any videos or articles with basic intake and exhaust upgrades and dyno data. A comparison of that would be awesome.

I’m a TeraFlex fan, but I’m kinda surprised it did that well given the stock control arms were used. I guess the Falcons had a lot to do with that.

Hate I didn't see this sooner, but......I ordered my 3.5 teraflex in November. Im glad to see it did well. My shocks are on backorder but I can wait....lol. Great Job to ya!!!!!
