OME Heavy Load Kit with AEV Highline Kit.

I'm looking for photos of anyone with an OME complete heavy load suspensions kit with AEV high line kit with 33's. curious how it sits, and if I should go with a bigger tire. My Jeep is a Green 99 TJ.

You might want to look at the high lines from Gen-Right as well Chad. They are a little more work on your part during the install, but A LOT CHEAPER and look just as good, if not better in my opinion.

I've got the $$$ for the AVE kit, but found a DIY instructions last night (DIY High Line Hood Mod for cheap : Higher Ground 4×4) and might go that route so I can dictate how much hood I take off - I have access to a well equipped metal / welding shop at work. I am curious how it looks with the OME Heavy kit and if I should be looking at a bigger or smaller tire to fit under the jeep. I don't want to regear yet and am shooting for 33"

With the DYI kit leaves more $$$ for a few other mods yet to be determined.

A highline kit will make those 33s look tiny in my opinion.

Here is a buddy's tj with the AEV kit on 37s, even makes those look small. He is running RE 4.5" springs with the RK longarms.

With that set up, you should be able to run atleast 35's, if not 37's. You would be able to run 33's with no lift at all with that kit.

I pulled these from the AEV site.
This Brute has the OME kit with 35's

This LJ has the OME kit, 1" BL, and 37's

No problem, glad to help. I'm actually running the OME HD kit and 33's myself.
