Default New Lift Install
Installed my new Terraflex 2.5 lift kit. New shocks, springs and frt JKS adjt track bar from Dave for $700.oo!! Had steering issue but forum guys assisted. After installing kit by myself I have a few tips. 1. To install bumpers and ext on frt end, the solution is easy. I used the scissors jack that came with the jeep, I balanced it on a-arm. It worked perfect. The kit works perfect as suggested. Control arms must go inside of sway bar. I am currently running stock 18s/tires and plan to upgrade rims and tires to 35s when budget permits. I don't have spacers on but I dont go off road. It comes out to about 3 inches on a unlimited. I installed 3/4 specrs on frt to insure levelness. Perfectly level.
