Actually, what I had to say was probably the highest value comment. The thread and specific question is going to provide a biased outcome. My comment about people owning other kits was actually me suggesting he ask that. The information someone gets is only as good as the question asked.

Based on the question, the OP has apparently decided that is the kit he wants. So, is this a damage check prior to ordering?

Also, I wouldn't recommend exhaust spacers to anyone. Prone to issues, moves the exhaust lower causing issues with many skid plates, and is a band-aid for a proper fix of cutting and welding that any exhaust shop can do for about the same cost.

This is the latest one I got

I'm running the TF2.5 lift with and additional 1in spacer up front to help level out the Jeep with the added bumper\skid plate and winch. I'm also running a synergy drag link flip, tie rod and track bar. Jeep rides awesome down the road.

OK. I agree.
About the spacer:
The Teraflex exhaust spacer doesn't move the exhaust down, it moves it back. That's the way it looks to me, anyways

Looks awesome. I'm surprised we don't see more people running this combo. Those tires may be my next set I'm up in the air between
those or trail grapplers. I've been a little disappointed with my mtrs

The spacer goes in where the pipe is running downhill. So it pushes the crossover down as a result. I forget how much, maybe an inch? At that point it contacts any skid that attaches to the crossmember. Some guys use spacers on the skid then, but that's a bad idea as all the force is directed into a couple small areas on the crossmember.

There are two flat runs of pipe that can be cut and spacers be welded in. That is the best and and easiest fix. For those getting a new driveshaft, there is a t-case output yoke that extends out a couple inches and then the exhaust can stay as is with no modification. I ran a 1310 shaft and 14" travel shocks and never moved the exhaust. It would hit at full droop, but full droop only ever happened on a lift. Otherwise, one wheel was up, which left plenty of clearance. I'm not suggesting to run that way though.

Thanks, my goal for the build was simple and functional. As for the tires I've taken these in the sand, deep mud, rocks and even places I shouldn't have gone but they haven't disappointed me yet. Their good quality tires that are by far cheaper than the trail grapplers. I have about 12k on mine and they still look new in fact I had a nail in one pulled it out and didn't even go through.

No complaints here. I did add the aev drop brackets for the front control arms and made the ride smoother on bumps. I also run bilstien 5100's

When i ran the teraflex 2.5 coil lift with 35" tires, i liked the ride but the rear tires rubbed the body(i needed to do the wheel well trimming to the rock rail and body pinch seam.

Also had to order wheel spacers since the lift lengthens the rear swaybar lings so that they line up even with the stock 17" wheel edge and any little bit of flex and i was rubbing the link or the frame mounted hard brakelines.

My kit came with shock extenders and i had rubi shocks so the ride was a little more firm but not harsh.

My kit also came with frame side rear trackbar mount-older kit i bought in 2009. The bracket makes the jeep feel more....top heavy when offcamber. Get the rear acle mounted bracket instead and will feel more balanced and less tippy.

The front axle had no correction so after the lift the axle was offcenter by inch or so. Didnt hurt anything so i left it be for a few years till i upgraded to 6" long arm lift also by teraflex.

The steering felt a tad more "flighty" but nothing scary. Its the result of the axle driving a few degrees towards the ground instwad of straight ahead. Lower arms or correction brackets would have resolved but i got cheap and lazy and didnt fix it till the new lift.

Best part-i sold the kit and got 90 percent of what i paid for it back out of it. They still have good value when u upgrade later.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for all the comments here. One thing is that you do not need the exhaust spacers now with the 2.5" kit with shocks. Now if you go to the taller 3" coils and longer 3-4" shocks, then you will need the exhaust spacers.
