They say you need an alignment it's a good idea. I only had to adjust my steering wheel after I changed to an adjustable front trackbar. We did a tf leveling kit and a ome lift in the driveway this summer and neither one of us did an alignment. I have over 4000 miles on since. But I am going to get an alignment next tire rotation just to make sure.

I've installed both versions of the teraflex kit and did not get an alignment either time. You'll be able to tell the first time you drive it.

Your jeep is just the look I am wanting. Did you notice any changes in how it drove or alignment? Where did you get the 1" front spacer? Thanks

Thanks, the Jeep drives great ( the same, no change). No alignment was needed and even the steering wheel wasn't off. The front spacers I installed were from TeraFlex...

If you raise the back six inches, the front doors will stay open!

So I'm looking to do the same, I also see that they have bigger spacers 2.5" front and 2" rear. I'm thinking about trying these, will I need to do anything like drive shafts, or anything. I currently have a MOPAR lift, I think it's a 3" or 2.5" but I'm unsure since it came like this.

Yep. I noticed that too. And unlike my other Wranglers, I actually like the look of my '12 JKUR (4:10, max tow.) with a small rake.

Teraflex 1.5 level kit. Really like it. Went on somewhat easy. I could do it in half the time now.
