What are some of the general prices for a 2.5 like 150.00 to 1200.00 plus labor???
I want about 2-3" good and cheap and I have to get it installed so what does Teraflex recommend?
Where do you go to get it installed? the dealership to help the warrant?

Teraflex Budget Boost = 2.5 inches of lift $220-$430 depending if you get shocks.
Teraflex 2.5 coil lift kit= 3" of lift $365-$577 depending if you get shocks.
These prices will go up 12% soon. Northridge 4x4 has them on sale for the weekend.
Have some folks in your area group help you put them on. Offer pizza and beer and the wrenches will flock to you.

I have the 2.5 kit with shocks. part #1251000. When I got mine it was 559.95 from Northridge and free shipping. Price may be more or less, but I am extremely pleased with this kit! Super easy to install, looks great, and rides great.
IMHO the best bang for your buck!

I looked up your part number it is 549.99 from quadratec
Is that what I need? what is the one at the dealership they call a 2.5" installed for 280.00 they said it was like boots at the top of something?
My jeep peforms very well for me I just want 33's with out rubbing is this what I want?

before....
after with winch, bumper, and 35's.....
I would check to see if Northridge still has free shipping as compared to another vendor plus shipping............no offense to any vendors, I'm just sayin.

Actually how a JK rides on road is just as important to TeraFlex as to how they handle offroad. What good is a kit if it's only good for one usage? If you buy our coil kit it will ride a little firmer. Spacers kits rely upon the stock coils/shocks, Rubions tend to have a firmer ride. With 6 different 2.5" kits out, TeraFlex customers have a broad range to choose from depending on $/usage and what the wifey will let you do.
Now some have ran into "flighty" steering or ESP issues. With lowered tire pressure and centering the steering wheel these issues can be addressed. Also loosening the control arm/trackbar bolts before install then retightening after can really help.

Hope I wasn't misunderstood, I wasn't trying to make it a contest between Old Man Emu and Teraflex and I did mention that you guys offer a "great product". It is only my own conclusion from my own experience offroading , from friends and from what I have read. No biggie, to each its own... but I'll stick with OME.
