Creating this post in the event that anyone goes through this too.
I ordered my AEV Mojave Spacer Lift at the beginning of March, and I still dont have it in hand. Ive talked to both Northridge (where ordered from) and AEV and continuously got the run around on when it was going to ship (Northridge says "from manufacturer within 30 days"). After two months of waiting, and having the goal post moved, (I know things are on back order, but not getting a helpful answer from anyone is what really put me off) I starting doing research.
After pushing and prodding with other companies, I found out that there isn't a difference in the spacers. Teraflex is using the same spacers for all of the JTs. But, that could mean that they have a larger internal opening for the spacer than other manufacturers (the air bump up front). I know local shops that haven't seen a difference in the gear needed for the spacer lift.
Today I was finally able to get the answer from AEV on what is really going on.
Parts. They dont have the parts. Makes sense.
But which ones? The shock extensions... They told me that the only real difference in the kits are the shock extensions.
Called and talked to Evo about their shock extension and they said that the regular JT extensions will work fine, but you have to drill out the bolt holes to fit the bolt for the Fox shocks. If that is the REAL difference between the bracket for the Mojave/Non-Mojave, then Im going to take one for the team and see if the extension brackets from AEV will work. If not, Ill order the replacement extensions.
So I called Northridge and had them change my order from the Mojave kit to the regular (which is in stock).
Ill try and update this post with anything that I find.
