Default Wanted: Pics TeraFlex 2.5 Coil Lift on Unlimited with Rubicon Rims

Just like the title asks... I searched the sticky threads (20 pages of Teraflex lifts!!!). Of all the pics I looked at, I didn't see a single shot of an Unlimited Rubicon sitting level with a 2.5 TF coil lift.

Before I feel the flames, I [I]use[I] my Jeep offroad, just not every weekend. I drive every day to work and around town with my young family in the Jeep. I have the money for the lift, just not 35s and gears.

Thanks.
Jeff

I ordered the lift with shocks, from off road warehouse last week. I can't wait to install it

Does it have to be rubi rims? I have the TF 2.5 coil lift on my unlimited sahara and it sits perfectly level. The rake is gone. The lift gave me 3" front and 2.5" in the rear. Tires are the same size overall, but my rims are 18's not 17's. It's even the same color. I don't have any side profile pics since the lift, but I could take some tomorrow.

Sure. Any stock rims will work!

Thanks.

Here you go. Just installed it two days ago. Went on a 250 mile drive with the wife yesterday. The Jeep drives great, no wandering, no vibrations, nice ride quality. With the winch on the front I got exactly 2 1/2" of lift at both ends.

Just an interesting observation. Notice how much shock shaft is showing on the front shock on my Jeep, with the suspension at ride height.


And notice how much shock shaft is showing on the front shock on your Jeep, with the suspension at (or near) full droop.


Whats up with that?

Different shocks or a piston cover maybe?

Did you use any wheel spacers or is it just the factory wheels and tires? This is exactly what I'm looking to do for my wife's Islander...

No spacers. Just the suspension lift with the factory tires and wheels.
