2.5" BB fix
Hello, I just picked up my wifes 2012 unlimited sahara last night. We had the dealer install the 2.5" teraflex BB with 33" tires and new wheels. This Jeep thing is new to both of us but I was told there is something else we can buy and have installed that will make it handle a little better. Something to do with the rear sway bar if I remember correctly but I could be way off base. Any suggestion/ideas would be appreciated. Thank you

Yes. It still has the stock shocks. Its not that the ride is horrible or anything. And I know alot of people are going to say its not a cadillac this is how its suppose to ride. I was just told when you install a lift that it can throw something with the suspension out of alignment so to speak and that there is a fix for it. Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

So the front lower control arms would be the first and most important next step I should take? This thing will never see any serious offroading. Its going to be a daily driver for my wife. Thank you

I would probably go the less expensive way first, I.E. TF shocks and maybe different coils. Being that your using a BB, the spacers are going to give you a much diff (stiffer/flighty) ride than an actual coil lift. I thought the same as you in regards to handling and overall ride when I put my TF BB on. It's gonna take a little while to get use to it...

Is this something you sell on your website? I checked it out and all I saw were trackbars. If they are listed could you please provide a link? Thank you
