Decided it was time and installed my AEV conversions 3.5" SC suspension system after work last week.

A few shots of the install;

Day 1:

AEV SALTA wheel test fit (or for a photo) :drool:

AEV 3.5" SC in and touched up the axle with POR15 Paint.

All finished!

With the lift installed and a sunny weekend, it was time to install the AEV Roof Rack. Install Was simple minus the previous addition the MOPAR Headliners. These headliners are approximately 3/4" thick and needed to be cut precisely around the AEV mounting brackets, which required multiple trips of the hard top on and off. Measure twice cut once!

The finished product;

Sorry for all the dirty pictures, no break from this NJ rain. :REExeSwimmingHL:

That looks really good! What tires are you running now?

Looks sweet Rin! Saltas seem like they were made for your rig.

Thank you Matt! They were worth the wait!

Looks awesome Rin. Your upgrades are going to cost me money since I'll have to take a trip up to check it out. Then it's pretty hard to leave without making a purchase!

Haha sounds like a good plan to me! How is the JK treating you?

Never really done. You know how it is!

I really like that rack. Are there adapters so you could mount a kayak?

Right now I have a gobi it is an awesome product but the ARB is very sleek looking!

Great build!

Hey Rino. Great build and am envious of your lighting setup. Similarly, I'm looking to wire my some RR rear LED lights to the reverse lights and then to an ON-OFF-ON switch through the sPod as well. Want to do similar wire with a bumper LED bar and A pillar dually spots relayed into the High Beams as well.

I can't seem to find a good diagram or explanation online on how to do that with the sPod. Do you mind explaining how you did that and where you got the rocker switches? Also what switch panel are you using? Is the sPod Double LED Light one? I'm a noob to the electronics side of things and trying to wrap my mind around how to do this. Many thanks.

I have been waiting to see a Jeep with the AEV Salta Wheels and those are absolutely gorgeous! They look great on your Jeep!
