WooHoo - when it rains, it pours!! Got another visit from Brown Santa and this time around, he brought JET Li, our 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited, a brand new EVO MFG 2.5" JL Boost Stage 4 Lift Kit complete with shock extensions. After talking to Mel, we've been assured this kit will give us the lift we need to clear 37's and will be all set for when they come out with coils, shocks and steering components. Here are a few shots of what everything looks like :cool:

First up, here's a couple of shots of all the gift wrapped boxes that Brown Santa delivered.

EVO MFG 2.5" JL BOOST STAGE 4 W/ SHOCK EXTENSIONS
EVO-3001S4-EXT

The EVO MFG 2.5” JL Boost Suspension systems lift your 2018+ Jeep Wrangler JL 2.5”s. The JL Boost kits are specifically designed to lift your JL and maintain factory spring rate, compliance and ride quality while having the option of retaining factory shocks, maintaining full wheel travel with use of shock extensions (part number EXT kits) or without shock extensions to allow for use of your choice of aftermarket 2/2.5” lift shocks. In using rigid steel coil spacers we maintain the factory ride quality without effecting or lowering spring rate like the alternative compressible plastic or poly urethane spacers. EVO MFG JL Boost kits are available in multiple configurations to suit your needs
and budget and are upgradable down the road. These Boost kits will fit up to a 37” tires on Rubicon Model JLs or 35” tires on Sahara and Sport/S.

The EVO MFG 2.5" JL Boost and Overland Boost are very easy to install using normal tools. No drilling or cutting (optional rear shock extensions require one minor drill). They require no driveshaft or exhaust modifications. Simple Bolt on installation.

That’s great man... kinda weird to see a Quality lift laid out on the table with No springs... but will fit 37’s.... I’m curious what the frame height is with this lift on the JLU, as compared to a 3” enforcer on the JKU.

LOL!! No kidding. No springs and no shocks but just about everything else under the sun :crazyeyes:

Don't know if I can give you comparison numbers but we are taking before and after measurements of everything.

Nice! When's it going on?

Hoping to have it installed by the end of the week. Documenting everything just takes a lot of time and slows everything up.

That's awesome. I didn't realize that there was such a thing as rigid spacers. Makes sense though.

That would be great... I’ll do the comparison with mine as well, Before &
After.... now I just need EVO to send me that Enforcer kit.... for scientific purposes of course.

Yeah, companies like Rough Country have been selling them for years. They make total sense and you still have your factory isolators placed over them. :yup:

EVO is just a phone call away. :D

Wow!! That's a nice looking kit[emoji106]

It really is. More like something you'd expect to see with coils and new shocks :yup:

Oooo, all coming together. Excited to see it all mounted up and then the tires and wheels

You and me both :thumb:

Wowzer!! Someone must be on the nice list! Can’t wait to see it come together. [emoji1319]

Oh yeah, tying my hardest to behave all year :crazyeyes:

Very cool, but I can’t believe it’s not on already!!

Man, you have no idea! Photographing, filming and documenting everything has a way of killing me at times. :icon_crazy:

So is living in my Jeep... [emoji51]
