We have a guy in our crew that's running 4.5 AEV with stock fenders. Running 37 Toyo's and rubs at full stuff just barely!!

They will rub at full stuff, no steering rub in road. Just haven't cut the fenders yet.
Is that disconnected full stuff! Maybe Toyo's are bigger 37's than yours

Gotcha. Thanks.
My wife is wanting to make us a 2 Jeep family. I am hoping and praying she loves anvil a much as me. I'm using your pics to sway her.

I can guarantee that the pictures you see of Anvil, do not do this color justice. You must see in person to really appreciate. I ordered it before I had even seen a 10A in Anvil. My heart skipped a beat when I saw it,it did have my name in it, so I may have been partial... lol

Toyo's are 13.5" wide, my Kevlars at 12.5". Toyo's are a bit bigger I think. These measure 36 1/4.

CB Installed
I used the Cobra 75WX ST CB. I mounted it to the dash with the bracket from Cooltec. I used the LoD antenna mount that came with my tire carrier (just an L bracket). It’s designed to mount to the tire rack, I mounted to the door. CB box mounted behind the glove box and just attached with one screw. The CB wire hangs loosely behind glove box (didn’t want to drill into the dash like some people do), easy access to remove CB so no one steals it too. Ran a wire to my roll bar above my left shoulder and cut out the padding just enough to squeeze in the speaker. Works great. No one knows it’s there and its loud enough to hear over road/wind noise and even the stereo.

I sure did, and you are correct, it is the bottom side.

Ok cool. Just wanted to prevent a potential interference problem!
Out of curiosity how long did it take you to install the AEV lift? Did you do it yourself and any trouble/tips you have? Lift is in the mail.

I've done two 3.5 AEV lifts now and a 2.5 with geometry correction brackets. I usually average around 5 hrs on the 3.5 kits and 4 hrs on the 2.5

Thanks Snopro. I have the 4.5 coming with geometry correction. But this is my first install. They have a 10-12 hour on the spec sheet. Its tough to find help with the install when you are asking for a whole weekend from a buddy. Perhaps a conservative 6 hours and a case of beers might net a fish? LoL

I usually take a paint marker and mark after I torque a bolt down that way when you go to recheck bolts you can see if any rotated
