The Jeep was raised 3.12" in the front and 2.0" in the rear. The extra 200 lbs of Morgan on the front bumper had an impact of 5/8 to 3/4". This JK has our wheel spacers and 35x10.50x17 interco tires on the stock wheel and it puts the tire just over the line for flare coverage. Some light trimming will be needed with the front air dam. Always tighten rubber bushings in their neutral (driving) position.

Pics are great (and say thanks to Morgan!)...thanks for the quick response. So with the ~200lbs on the front the rake is less noticeable with the 2.5" coils than the 2.5" spacer BB.

* My current lift measurements with a TF 2.5" Spacer BB
front lift: 1 7/8" (with aftermarket bumper/winch ~200 lbs losing 5/8")
rear lift: 2 1/2"

* My proposed lift measurements with this new TF 2.5" Spring BB
front lift: 2 1/2" (with aftermarket bumper/winch ~200 lbs losing 5/8")
rear lift : 2"

If this is the case it looks like I'll be ordering these springs in the near future...

It rides great! Just a tad firmer than stock.

Teraflex,

with this lift measuring over 3 in the front... is a drive shaft mod needed or required?

With TeraFlex shocks or stockers w/ext. there's no problems. However if you put another brand on then..........

The VSS™ gas shock uses a twin-tube design, with a triple-chromed rod to ensure extended trouble-free operation. This shock is all performance and packed with features for extreme durability.

Is an adjustable track bar necessary/beneficial, with this lift to ensure that axles are centered?
