    Stretches a YJ, Jeep builds the LJ.
    Builds a Brute, Jeep builds the JT.
    Keep it up AEV! Loving my AEV equipped Mojave.

    Great video and company! It's been a pleasure to install (nearly) all your products on our Chevy Colorado ZR2 build!

    Still driving my ‘09 JK with the full AEV treatment. Hasn’t let me down.

    Looking forward to seeing, and hopefully purchasing, the 2024 Colorado Bison.

    You guys made the best, strongest rear bumper for my XJ out of your little Missoula shop ~2000. Awesome to see you continue to grow and continue to make solid products.

    I remember going to your old shop in Missoula in 2005. My parents had a harness made for a 5.7 in their little red express. Now that I have a 2500 ram, I've been buying as many aev parts for it I can.

    Still remember seeing the Jeep cut in half and wondering what the hell Dave was doing. Just amazing.

    Living in zoo MT I’ve seen a few AEV vehicles and grown to really love them (man that brute was sweet!) but now that I own one the prices of some things have really gone up! I understand you work with Chevy to adhere to their standards but dang $400 when it was $200 for a fairlead and some wiring! But still can’t beat the quality, which I suppose is what you pay for!

    I'm going to bring my RAM 2500 down from Toronto to the Michigan location to get it kitted up nicely. What's the turn around time on turning a stock night edition into a Prospector XL?

      Nothing against Ford, it's just a tremendous amount of work to support a platform to the extent that we do. Maybe one day, but right now we have our hands full 😅
