I too am wondering about this for a JK unlimited Rubicon. Are you looking at the TF with or without Shocks and does it make a difference if you use OEM shocks? I have a Rubicon, so I know the shocks are a slight step up than Sport shocks, but are the TF shocks better than OEM Rubi shocks?

Thanks.

Default TF 2.5" coil lift on 2010 4dr unlimited Sahara

I installed the 2.5" TF coil lift earlier in the year and I am running Yokohama Geolander 305x70xR16 MT's (approx 32.5" height) I am happy with the lift and I have posted pictures of the increase in height below. Remember if you are going camping and loading the back it will come down significantly. I have ARB deluxe fr/rr bumpers and winch + MBRP roofrack etc so my car is reasonably heavy.


Cheers

Mark

Just installed a 2.5 Teraflex coil kit on my 4dr 2011 last night.

I had a 1.5" leveling kit on it prior and this lift brought it up to 39" at the lower edge of the front fender and 37.75" at the bottom of the rear fender.

I put this lift on with shock extenders and I got 3 inches up front and a almost 3.5 inches on the back. The shocks shouldn't effect height. I have a heavy front bumper and winch on front, but it seems to be just fine. I love the lift. I am getting a Or-Fab tire carrier soon and a separate bumper (don't know which one yet....) so I expect rear to come down a bit. TF recommended that I consider a 1/2 inch spacer to level out front, I may, after rear bumper and carrier.

I have been wondering and wanting to know the same, I would love to do this lift with the 33's I want to run, but im affraid it may net to much gain in height and not look right for a 33" tire. With that in mind I am thinking that the TF 1.5" perfomance leveling spring may be ideal. Most people say new coils are gonna give you more lift than they advertise, anywhere from 0,5"-1.5" more than advertised depending on the jeep and lift.

I just haven't been able to find any good pics of 4drs with the TF 1.5 performance leveling kit and 33's...


(kinda irrelivant, but Im trying to make sure it will fit in my 80" garage when all is said and done! )
