    For the Gladiator (and JL) AEV have the 2.5" with "regular load" springs or "heavy load" springs. The "heavy load" *may* give a bit more lift and work out to something like 3". I tired the "heavy load" and for my weight (right on GVWR), and 33s, they were very stiff and gave even a touch more...

    Barn Door for JK factory hardtops

    Sounds about right to me Jeff. Both my JK and JT will get another 20% improvement when I sit on 80km/h (50 m/h) in top gear, keeping the revs well under 2000. That why I much prefer to stay off the interstates and use the secondary routes. -Dan
