Default 4" lcg teraflex long arm

I'm trying to run 37 inch trail grapplers and I want to know how this lift will perform with these tires. This is my DD and I want the smoothest ride possible. If you think any other tire and lift combo would be better on road please let me know! And will this lift last a long time?thanks

I would spend the extra money and get the Evo lift lift, with the 5100 shocks. The Teraflex springs and shocks IMHO do not ride very smooth. I've had load range C 35s, E 35s, and now D 37s. All run at 26-28 psi. My alignment is spot on. It's great offroad, but the design (bushings/joints) could be better. Hence the Offroad Evolution stuff.

But you should really determine if you NEED longarms. If not then the Offroad Evolution 4" Evo Enforcer lift would be a great choice.

Hmm. For some reason the links I posted are gone. They were links to Offroad Evolutions page, a paying sponsor on here.

As far as shocks are concerned, I'm looking at getting the 6" TF Elite setup. I understand that most recommend the 5100's over the TF Shocks, but what about the 5100's vs. FOX vs. ELKA?

Any response would be appreciated.

Problem with the 5100's is that they are not valved specifically for this kit. The ELKA/Fox/TeraFlex shocks that TeraFlex offers have the proper compression/extension and valving for this kit. That doe's make a difference with a suspension.
