Getting Set to get the MOD 6" SL installed

Can't wait to see it being flexed out. Let me know what effect the lift has on parts and MPG's

I can tell you it has a negative effect because lift ($$$) + negative MPGs = crying wallet.

I didn't really do much today as it was pouring rain and my lil girl was sick, she would not let me out of her sight.
These are pics from the night I got it back.

I will find out if it is the rcv axles are what is making all the freaken noise up front by putting my OEM ones back in this weekend. I am dropping it back off friday night after work for him to fab the front skid that came with the bumper to work with the new lift as it changed the mounting locations. I'm still working on the issue with the AEV unit setting off the BAS & TC lights on the dash. I tried driving with it removed tonight and ever turn I made the TC light on the dash was flashing along with killing power.

I have maybe 100 miles on it so far & a few things:
Tires howl more than I thought. They are a MT so its kinda expected, but this one is kinda loud.
It rides a lot different than when just the OME setup. Unsure if the fact it is a lot taller or it is the tires being to stiff?

I will be taking more pics once all is done.

PJ, what happens if you dont use the aev module at all and program the tire size with the superchips?

And check your tire pressure. They might be inflated too high

Man that thing is a BEAST!!! Looks great man, you'll get used to the difference in the ride and work out the kinks, modding Jeeps is never an easy task!

So far when I run with out the AEV & superchips on every turn I make the TC kicks in. I have not tried just the superchips on it yet.

Was thinking the same thing on the tires. They are 10 ply E load rated tires that I have set to 40 psi.

I ran MT's once. Great tires but I don't like the noise so I just go with AT's now. Dropping the pressure will soften them up but eat into MPG's so its a balance thing. I would try just using the super-chips and see what happens. That stinks those axles are making noise especially for how much they cost.

I will try the superchips only at lunch to see if that helps.
I am pissed about the axles too, I will be on the phone with them after I get the confirmation it is them that is causing all the noise.

Well I tried while on lunch going just the SC programming with out the AEV completely and every turn I did setoff the TC light on the dash. So I will have to install the AEV & just deal with the warning lights being on until I can get resolved via AEV,
