I've never done the Teraflex kit but I've done or assisted in doing several other leveling / lift kits and can say its a pretty straight forward thing, follow the instructions and you shouldn't have any problems doing it

its a pretty easy / straight forward install - you'll need jack stands & at least one floor jack.
Put the Jeep on jack stands, use the floor jack to raise the axle, once you have the necessary components loose (shock & don't forget the brake line brackets), lower the axle enough to get the spring out & then put the pucks in place & replace the spring.
I needed a good size pri-bar to help get the spring in & out.
even if you go slow, it shouldn't take you more than 30-45 minutes per axle

Remember to loosen all control arm and TB bolts. Install coils/spacer. Shake jeep around with tires back on at the new height. Lastly torque.http://project-jk.com/jeep-jk-write-...orque-settings

I just finished installing this kit. The video and link to torque specs were very helpful. Thanks. The video was a little off as the statement about front brake line bracket removal only applying to 2012 and later was not accurate. My 2011 looked just like the one in the video and I had to remove that bracket. Good thing I stumbled on to this thread a few days ago and watched the video as the printed instructions included with the kit missed several steps. I probably would have overlooked the removal of the emergency brake line bracket and would be out there right now trying to fix it.
