Default Teraflex Leveling Kit Installed!

Before...

After!


Rear springs were a pain... The lower axle was not low enough... Other than that, easy!

Some things that should of been included on the instructions - Torque specs (Sway Bar: Top - 66 lbs, Bottom - 75 lbs), Unbolt Brakeline (I found this out on the forum beforehand) and Coil/Spring Compressor (Those rears were a beast!)!!!

Now that's done, thinking new shocks... OME's, anyone?

Nice. I've thought about this lif myself. I have limited funds for mods and this is my daily driver, so any major mods will have to wait.

The kit was $119 @ Northridge 4X4 - and it took me about 1 1/2 hours to do, and it looks good! Good Luck!

ome are nice shocks if you got the money. the ltr have a lot of travel to them and you will need longer brake lines. the yellow ones will be a little shorter but i can't personally speak for those. looking good
