OK I know to some of you this is just an awfully stupid question, but how do you center the steering wheel. After my 2.5 RC BB which I installed it was perfect. But yesterday when I got my wheels and 35's on it's off just a little?? The directions that came with my BB said make sure wheel is centered in about 5 different places but never how to center it if it's off?

This is great stuff. OK next question. Since I have the rubicon, I have been told not to bother with a BB and new shocks because the nitro-shocks that come standard on the Rubicon are already great shocks. True? or should I go for new shocks?
Second question: I think I like the tera-flex 2.5BB the best so far because of build qulaity and its the only one (to my knowledge) that includes replacement sway bar links. Having said that, everyone seems to rave about the rubicon express mono-tube shocks. Can I, Should I, mix and match a little? or is that playing with fire? Thanks
By the way, this forum is better then any manufacturer's tech support line...

I would have to ask David(Northridge4x4) on this one, I know Edelbrock makes the RE shocks, I am pretty sure i heard him mention they where making the Tera ones too, but I cant seem to find the reference at the moment to confirm that.
I have the RE BB on mine, I like the monotube shocks just fine, but i would stop short of raving about them personally.
EDIT: I found the post i was remembering, Edelbrock was and/or is making the ones for Full Traction NOT TERAFLEX as i had mispoke above. I remembered it wrong. Posted here: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...22&postcount=6

I have the Teraflex 2.5" BB with shock adaptors for the stock rubicon shocks. I have done some pretty extreme trails with it and no problems. The TF lift gives more that 2.5 inches closer to three. The only part that I needed was a new steering dampener. That was replaced and have had no issues. I also used the spidertrax wheel spacers with 32's.
Awesome lift and great customer service from Joe at Tera Flex
