1" spacer on 2.5" TF coils?
I had a 2 door.
I put a 3" TF kit on it. Loved the way it looked.
.................................................. .............................
We just got a 4 door, and I put a 2.5" TF kit on it, and a 1" BL.
I want it to sit a little higher, like how my 2 door was.
If I put 1" coil spacers on, what else would I need?
I know I'd at least need an Adj. front track bar. Would the bracket that came with the 2.5" kit be good for the rear? I'm trying not to blow a whole lot of cash right now, being that I just bought tires wheels and a lift.
Let me know what you think

Here is mine same color too. But added a 1.25 BL. This is about as high as you can get I think with the TF 2.5 coil lift with out adding larger springs. Would like to get a front track bar and lower control arms later. But it drives just fine though.
Edit: I like that black grill on the 2dr, go's well with the red rock.

If your budget is limited just increase the size of the BL
Going to 3.5" of suspension lift is the best way to do it, but it is going to trigger the need for several other mods.

Yeah I hear you. The 3" TF I put on my 2 door gave me about 5" of lift, and it drove like crap. I didn't put arms on it. All kinds of bump steer going on.
I just thought one more inch would be ok. It drives great now, how much worse could it get with 1 inch?
I guess theres only one way to really find out. I'm just afraid of the suspension domino effect.
Unless theres someone out there running a 1" spacer on their 2.5" TF coils???

My 2 door sits in between your 2 lifts. I have a 2.5 BB with springs out of a Rubi 4 door with the towing package. Mine rides like a 3 legged pig, but no tears in the drive shaft boot, and I have beat the holy hell out of it. My only complaint is I have a Warn 9.5 ti so the front sags a little. I would put the spacers in and call it a win.

It wasn't that bad. It was just a pain in the butt because I had just gotten done putting the new 2.5" coils on, so I had to take everythiung off the axles again to put the coil spacer on.
I would have saved myself some work if I knew I was going to put the spacers on in the first place.
I'm happy now though, and that's the important part.
