Default 2.5" TeraFlex lift installed...

Just wanted to post some pics of my after b4 and after shots of my TeraFlex 2.5" budget Boost. it took me a few friends about 4 hours at night. so far no major problems, but my steering wheel does seem to be turned a tad to the driver side now.. but not enough to have my ESP lights come on, but I haven't taken on the interstate or anything yet, i've been sick since I put the lift on... so no action shots yet, but will be on the 13th!

Before:


after:

Yep 33 Maxxis Buckshot Mudders, on Cragar Soft 8's 17x8 rims.

Personally i'd rather have 15" rims, but I had the tires left over from my 05 Xterra.

for the price I love the tires, they have done great on both rigs so far. Next I want to try the Bighorns like 2k2Wrangler has, but they didn't have them 17's when i bought mine.

And thanks for the replies! I'll have some action shots and vids after the 13th weekend:toung:

Whats the backspacing?? I'm guessing 5? They dont look like they stick out past the flares.

285's (i think like 11.5 inches wide) backspacing is 4.5, and they do stick out about an inch.

and Dean, as far as looks, I'm still undecided, but I lifted for clearance, not looks, I was bottoming out all over the trails, my gas tang skid is getting rocked, literally!
