Send a PM to bustabizz too, request a quote and have it in your mind when you call David... David's a top notch guy, but it doesn't hurt to price shop either

What size lift are you going with? Regardless, you want at least an adjustable trackbar for the front... go with JKS

Depending on the type of lift you go with, yes. Budget Boost kits come with drop brackets to re-use the stock trackbars and recenter the axle, but, it's highly desirable to ditch those brackets and get adjustable trackbars. Some lift kits will include this as a part of the kit. Did you decide on which lift you're going with? I take it's not RC since you mentioned checking with Northridge4x4 and David doesn't sell RC.

who is bustabizz?
cause i know ORW (offroad warehouse) is haveing a teraflex sale, and i know northridge is having a teraflex sale...so i just have to talk to both of them. I am looking at the 2.5" lift coils w/ shocks.

If i could get a good deal on the lift, i may do the trackbar also. Im just looking later on down the road when i eventually do 37's or something.

So I told him this jeep is my project/hobby...its the only thing i spend money on besides food and my girlfriend, and that at the end of the day, the money that is going to go to the lift, is going to be used every single day. I told him my sister has probly spent 700 bucks in the past 2 months on just clothes and her nails, so at least my 700 bucks will be a way better investment. needless to say, after i said that, he said i just need to give myself a certain budget on this lift (i already did) and buy what i want with the budget.

So im talking to Northridge tomorrow probly and will have the lift ordered within the next few days. Hope i can get a good deal. Will i need an adjustable front trac bar too you think?




I do A TON of graphic design work, it is part of my job. I have created decals before for the civic guys when i was one of them. I can easily come up with a decal for us. Just pitch me ideas of what you all want really and I can make something up and post it on here within a few days and you all can tell me changes that you all want to it.

here is an example of what i made for the civic guys:



of course it doesnt have to be anything like that. I have lots of different fonts and photoshop, so i can make nearly anything.
glad things worked out on the lift I think tera still has their 10% off sale David is easy to work with so hopefully he will cut you a deal. also bustabizz was having a sale on TF stuff ... cool deal on the stickers

I am going with the 2.5" teraflex coil lift w/ shocks.. so i am not really sure. That lift just seems the safest route to go with i guess.
