Summary: All is good now - after almost exactly 1 year. Hint 1: tighten all steering system bolts, not just the ones mentioned in the instructions. Hint 2: make sure the steering damper has a bushing on both ends, or get a separate damper from your local auto parts store. --We got this kit in December 2018 and had it installed by January and kept the stock wheels/tires. It was all others have said - except it had a death-wobble (DW). I worked with AEV support and sent pictures of the installation. They said all looked good, just tighten everything - including steering system bolts not touched by the kit. Good advice and seemed to clear it up for a few weeks. Then it was back... I thought getting 35" tires may help, and it did somewhat, but the DW kept happening some. We tried air pressure changes, kept tightening "everything" and kept trying to figure it out. Then in November we parked next to another lifted Jeep (as one does) at a yogurt shop and got to talking to the owner. He mentioned getting a new steering damper to fix his DW. I did, problem solved! Turns out the one sent with this kit didn't have the bushing (little pipe through the rubber doughnut) on one end. Tightening it would make the rubber tight enough to work for a while, but it would wear away in a week or two and DW would come back - and repeat. So, long story short, NOW I can highly recommend this kit. The Jeep is very stable, feels great, is once again safe and fun to drive, and is very tall.

RIde is better than stock, all parts and hardware are OE quality or better. Stance looks great with 35" tires. My only complaint is some of the bolt/nut hardware was sized incorrectly, which was unexpected from AEV. Other than that I couldn't be happier with it so far.

Excellent instructions, easy install. Everything went according to plan! Many reviews talk about better than stock ride. This is not my experience, it is a little firmer but still quite tolerable. Will install 35s after I kill my stock tires.
