Default Teraflex 1" Coil Spacer questions..

I installed a Smittybilt SRC front bumper on my Jeep last Christmas and it looks to me like my Jeep is sagging in the front more now then it was around this time last year. I was looking into purchasing some Teraflex coil spacers to install to the front to try and make it more level. Does anybody run the Teraflex 1" coil spacer, and if so any pics? Also, how tough is the install? I saw from other forums that the spacers come with no directions for installation. Thanks for the help!

Theres nothing to it. Remove coil, stack on top, put back together.

Yeah, it's the exact same process as installing a lift, you are just popping a spacer on the stock coil instead of swapping the stock coils for new coils. There are youtube videos to watch, and up in the Write-Ups area, you will find some step-by-steps with pics. (there is an index stuck to the top, if the links are still broke just scroll down to the suspension section). Doesn't matter which company the lift belongs to, they all use the same steps.

If you have access to a lift or a couple large jacks it shouldn't take more than 2 hours tops start to finish

Yeah, really easy. Toe will be unchanged but don't forget to center the steering wheel. I usually make sure the steer ahead adjuster sleeve is nice and freed up and then just drive the jeep and keep turning the sleeve until the wheel is straight. No need to pay for an alignment.
