Default Pics of TF 2.5" BB with HD (3") front coils

Thinking about replacing the 2.5" TF spacers on the front coils with TeraFlex HD coils from the 2.5" HD BB kit. It seems like these are just 3" coils and I'm curious what the stance is like with these coils on the TF BB assuming there is additional weight in the front from the aftermarket bumper and winch.

Please post pics if you have this setup ...

Thanks!!!

This is after I added the 3" TF coils. I like it much better, brought the front up about 1.5" and better ride.

This is ours with the Full Traction 3" HD springs up front and Teraflex 2.5 BB Spacer in the rear.

After swapping out the front 2.5" spacers with the 3" coils is there anything else I should consider? I already have a Full Traction front adjustable track bar installed so the axle can be re-centered if need be. Anything else to consider when moving from 2.5" to 3"? Again the reason for the change is the addition of the Rugged Ridge Bumper and winch up front to compensate for the extra weight.

I'm also assuming my TeraFlex 9550 shocks (from the 2.5" BB kit) will still be OK with the new 3" coils?

Thanks.

You will be fine. No other issues. One thing to consider is how much sag you have now? If its more than the 1/2" you may need to add a small spacer. Some guys havent had that issue. I've got the 3" Full Traction springs for sale. I wish i could tell you if they were 3" exactly or if they were a little more... just not sure and wouldnt want to give false info.
