I am wanting to replace the Teraflex leveling kit on my 2012 JKU with the Teraflex 2.5 coil lift. I do not do any heavy offroading. Can I get by with just the basic kit without shock adapters until I can get new shocks in about 6 months?

I was kinda looking to do the same. I have the perfomance leveling kit(springs) and was wondering if I could put 1" spring spacers to make up the difference. Anyone know if that would work?

Yes your down travel will be limited by the shorter shocks . I know quite a few guys running shorter shocks until they can save up for longer shocks, brakelines or extensions, longer shafts.
I'm not saying you need that but many people run shorter shocks on different stages of builds.

Yes you can add spacers to your TF leveling kit.
Are you running aftermarket front bumper and winch?

You could by why would you want to? The shock adapters are like $12 bucks total why not just put the extensions on for now

I forgot to add though if your going through all the trouble throwing spacers in the front and rear I'd recommend putting a bigger bumpstop in the front since you got it all apart and later in put in rear lower bumpstops in as well as a rear trackbar relocate.
Maybe different rear end links when you put in your rear shock extensions as well!!

Will this lift put rake back into the stance? Would it be a good idea to reinstall one of the 1" front spacers I already have from the leveling kit? Or possibly buy and install a 1/2 inch spacer?

Depends on your front bumper and winch situation. Do you currently have a rake also?!?

I'm running the 2.5" TF coil lift on my JKU with stock shocks. Im not having any problems, and I have been running this configuration for the past couple of months until I can upgrade my shocks.

Ok cool. Thanks for the info. I have a front bumper and winch but removed the rear
