    Evo Coilover Noise

    That's not right, my buddy and I both have the Evo long arm coilover kits with the AGM sliders on our JL's and we don't get that noise. They are very quiet on the street, and even when hauling ass in the desert, the only place they are noisy is when going slow and articulating off-road, you can...

    Evo coilover question

    Like Eddie said they are a bit noisy and I have AGM sliders, I hear some pops during heavy articulation but I’m used to it and don’t mind it, mine are stiffer on road than a regular coil and sprig setup but it’s not in a bad way, just more firm. Off-road with tires aired down they are awesome...

    Evo coilover question

    I use my Jeep a lot, EVO coilover kit has been fantastic. I have about 3" of up-travel front/rear and don't have any issues with that. I have King air bump stops in the front and regular rubber bump stops in the rear. From the desert to rock crawling it flat out works, it works really well...

    Hello from Socal

    Hey man, good to hear from you, I looked for you last time I was there getting tires for my son's car, but it sounds like you aren't working there anymore.

    Evo coilover question

    Now that you mention it, we did run into this issue when the lift was first installed, passenger upper control arm was rubbing the frame, so axle was shifted more driver to clear. I'm going leave it as is and not mess with it.

    Evo coilover question

    Don't remember what my bump stops are at but they are setup to where I can stuff my tires without getting into the fenders. Wheel backspacing is 3.5. I am at about 3" of lift, I will need to adjust the coilovers to 3.5" or more when I upgrade my tires. Looking to go 38's next year.

    Evo coilover question

    I have about 3.5" of uptravel. At full droop the front passenger side shock does make slight contact with the frame, I only noticed when we had the Jeep on the Metalcloak CTI ramp fully flexed out, but it hasn't caused any issues after almost a year of wheeling. I could probably shift the axle...

    Lets see more pics! I'm also looking into 38 Trail Grapplers, would love to see how they look on your rig.

    Suspension noise

    I will, i'm planning on replacing the stock DS with aftermarket so that should help, thanks! Thanks Eddie, I was just worried something was binding or hitting something it shouldn't, if it's just normal coilover noise I won't worry about it.
