2017 JK Recon

[Mvan49]

We just purchased our new Jeep last week so we are still in Honeymoon mode. Lol
From all my research before buying I believe the Recon is replacing the Hard rock. we would like to lift it 2", any recommendations on which lift to go with?

Thanks

What direction are you planning to go with the Jeep? I have a rather heavy Wrangler with a roof top tent and because of that I used Old Man Emu HD springs front and rear. With all the weight it still came out closer to a 3" lift. I paired that with Bilstein 5100's and it rides awesome on highway and off-road. Smaller bumps like potholes can be a little rough but overall I would recommend the set up. Let me know if you have other questions!

I plan to build a off road trailer and mount a RTT on that. This will be a daily driver and overlander vehicle but nothing extreme.

I would look at the Teraflex Overland lift. It has a heavier spring that is not supposed to sag.

Congrats on the new Jeep.

I love my AEV 2.5' lift. I added the geometry correction brackets. Replaced Bilstein with custom King Shocks. This has performed well in every situation I have put the vehicle in.
