We have two Jeeps, one is a 2.0T with eTorque and the other is an EcoDiesel, both have AEV lifts installed (among other things). I think AEV does a great job providing value with better than factory road handling and good enough off road capability. It is apparent they tune their components for the various vehicle configuration. Here is my ONLY beef with the diesel lift - not only did they fail to take into account the longer jounce tube, their tech support kind of dismissed the issue as unimportant. The front jounce tube is longer by 1 3/8" for the diesel, 392, and XR package. I've measured it and the install instructions for the Teraflex lift calls it out. To account for the longer jounce tube in these models, you need to install LESS bump extension otherwise you're going to constantly be hitting your bump stops on pot holes, speed bumps, train tracks, basically every day driving. The bump stop extensions that are included in this package (round things in the very center of the picture) are TOO BIG. I took the springs back out and checked clearance without the extensions. They aren't necessary to clear 35" and probably not even 37"s. You only need to add about 1/2" to prevent over compressing the shocks. I used these TeraFlex ones instead: https://www.northridge4x4.com/part/bump-stops/1959300-teraflex-front-and-rear-bump-stop-strike-pad-kit Also, you'll beat the snot out the geometry correction brackets if you play in the rocks but they're relatively cheap to replace.
