Hi all, I have a 2 door 09x. Currently running 35's and the el cheapo RC 3.25 lift and slowly upgrading to better stuff. Anyways I am ordering Elka shocks from David at northridge this week and I found a decent deal on a set of 3" teraflex springs. Is there anyone with a similar spring/shock setup that can give me some imput on how it does on and off road? Thanks

I have the 4in and elka shocks, firm on -road kinda like a sports car and can take corners alot faster, royally kick ass off road. Whether it be high speed or rock crawling, its a major difference. If you don't already have some front lower adj control arms, you may want to get some for caster adj. Keep an eye on your rear driveshaft, on a two door that 3in gives you more like 4.

I have full traction front and rear upper control arms for my caster/driveshaft angle. Will get lowers eventually. Getting some RK coil wedges at the same time as shocks for the bow in my rear springs. Thanks for the input, That sounds exactly like how I want my jeep to handle!

Anyone else that can chime in on what springs would give me a similiar feel with elka shocks

I had the 2.5" teraflex coils and Elka shocks and it was a great set up. Same thoughts as mkjeep, it was a great set up.

I had the Elkas with teraflex 4 inch spings with both long and short arms at different times. Previous descriptions are right on; a little firm on road and the faster you go off road the better (within reason)
