Default 2.5" Teraflex with stock Rubicon tires...

The UPS man delivered at 10:00. I finished the install at 13:30. Thanks to Wayolife's write-up it was a breeze. Teraflex's instructions suck at best...


I'll get some better pics up soon.

One thing I noticed. When I jacked the front axle up, the front sway bar was inverted. The links are very close to being too short. This is not a big deal, if you connect the swaybar links after the springs are compressed, but it looks like when fully dropped out and disconnected (on the rubicon), the swaybar could end up inverted, (pointed down instead of back). I will know more when I get to flex it out a bit.

That looks really nice. Wasnt sure what a lift would look like with stock wheels and tire but that is nice. Thanks for the pics.

So the big question is... do you have any ESP issues?

Thanks.

Is your rear axle noticeably shifted to one side?

Thanks.
Only been driving it for 3 days, and about 250 miles. No ESP issues. I recentered the wheel when complete. Only took 1 turn of the turnbuckle on the draglink. Seems to track normally, and rides like stock. The rear axle is about 1/2 to 3/4" shifted by the looks of it. You really have to look carefully to even see it. There are alot of people on here running this lift, with no issues.

No brainer mod, especially for $212 delivered...They should come like this

Anybody have this lift on a Sahara? I would like to see the stock 18" wheels with this type of lift. Those Rubi wheels look good.

I've had my lift on for approx 2 weeks with no ESP issues, I have even tried to make it come on. Everything still seems the same just need to get out and USE IT.
