HighLine vs LowLine

[AEV Jordan]

This really isn't the best comparison photo, but I came across it today and figured I could share.

There is a little barrel distortion going on so the 35" and 33" look about similar size but the wheel on the 33" looks bigger. I only pretend to know about photography... not perspective. Also, my Brute is dirty, so ignore that please.

As a general observation and not anything to do with my obvious bias towards the product: I think the lowline setup makes the Jeep look... old... like YJs :p

That's actually a good comparison photo...

Your hood heights are practically the same, but your fenders are higher, tires are bigger, and wheel-gap (up-travel) is far greater.

That's what the kit is all about.

Jordan, I love the HL fenders...The Tjs do loook old now!! Mine doesn't.....

Thanks for the shots!

It does kind of make the TJ look older now, especially with the JK out now. However it is still something that the average person wouldn't even notice.

You know, for the longest time I simply have not been quite sure how I felt about the Highline. On the one hand, the performance aspects are unarguable, you definately get more tire room without having to put a big expensive lift on it. On the other hand, I wasn't sure if I liked the change in the traditional jeep image.

But now that I saw that OP photo, it dawned on me that the Highline looks like how the TJ should have been originally designed. I don't know what it is exactly, but it just does. Maybe it's how the line from the windshield swoops down like that and goes flush with the bottom of the hood. I think that's it.

Well, now I'm convinced. I want one... when I get a Brute, that is.

Edit: Question, does the Highline kit make the top of the front wheel well equal to the top of the wheel well on the Brute truck bed?

here are some pictures of my Brute highline on 35's with a 4.5 " RE suspension and my Rubicon on 33's with a 4" Teraflex suspension.

Same bumpers and winches too, they both sit level but the driveway has some "crown" to it but this is as level as I could get them sitting together.
