Default Count Down!!!

I am finally getting my final piece to the puzzle, my wheels that I have waited for, for over a month,(got screwed from someone on Ebay, had to reorder somewhere else) anyway, this weekend I will be installing my 2.5" tera flex coil susp. JKS front adj. track bar.Is there anything else that I may need to know or get before I start? This is my daily driver so i can't have it out of commision for any period of time. Oh by the way I have an 07' 2dr auto trans. I had someone tell me that I should drive my factory wheels for a while to see if I have everything set up properly, but I was thinking that since I have the front adj track bar I shouldn't have to as long as I get the front axle back in alignment. I REALLY NEED ANY AND ALL IMPUT from all who have done this before. Thank you very much. Also how long does it take to install this lift, my brother in-law and my self will being intalling it and both have a good amount of wrenching time. Thanks again for all imput.

Very straight foreward install. Take your time and get a buddy to help and it will actually be pretty easy. I did mine by myself (i had access to a lift) and it took all of about 2.5 hours.

What he said!!! I did a TF 3 inch lift, with a full set of control arms using TF's instructions, WOL's write up for the 4 inch, a few pm's to some helpful members here, and a call or two to Dave at Northridge 4x4 and Joe at TF just to make sure I wasn't screwing something up. I did have my drive shafts installed by a friend who is a mechanic and I went ahead and got an aligment done to my specifications for castor and toe in. You will be fine. Have fun ! Dont forget to take before and after shots to post.

Patience, grease, and an extra set of hands will do the trick....
