I just bought this Teraflex 2.5" BB from someone local but two of the bump stops look different than what is shown on Teraflex's website.

Do I have everything I need to install it?

Yeah you're missing some things I think. I would take it back and buy it from someone reputable. I think you're missing the rear bump stop blocks and maybe longer sway bar links? I think those come with the BB kit. Maybe someone with a BB kit could chime in.

Well when I look even the most basic TF BB here:

..the only thing that doesnt seem to match up is the rear bumpstop maybe. But I dunno.

you're are missing two longer sway bar links, rear track bar drop bracket (but the original kits didn't have the drop bracket), the rear bump stops are look a different but i cant really remember what mine look like and maybe those will still work, brake line relocation brackets, and maybe some hardware.

that's i can think of right now, hope it helps a little

The bumpstops for the front are ok but the rears will not work. If you bought this kit new I would take it back and ask were are the rest of it is.

Unfortunate I bought the kit from someone localy. The guy will not take it back because he needs the money and says all the parts for the lift are there.

So are my rear bumpstops old?? Where did they even come from.

I would wait on Joe from teraflex to write you on this. It might be one of the first budget boost kit they sold.
