Get 2 floor jacks, 2 jacks stands, wheel chocks. Torque wrench, lithium grease, various sockets, and a buddy and you are good to go. Piece of cake. Oh yeah, dont forget about us on the forum, we will walk you through it if you need us.

Getting the TeraFlex 2.5 BB with Shock Adapters when the pay check hits. Is there anything else I need to get or is it all in the kit?

Can't wait to see it/hear how yours went.

You have to remove the sway bar links when installing the lift anyhow so might as well put the disconnects on when you put it back togther.

Install was super easy. You might need a ratching strap to pull the track bar back into alignment to bolt. I didnt use the lowering bracket though. The Jeep sat and rode fine without having to mess with it. Otherwise, the writeup is the bomb. Take the instructions it comes with and wipe your ass with them. They don't hold a candle to the write online with detailed pics. Also, Air tools were a time saver for sure. You can get by with one jack too btw, I did!

I installed the TF 2.5 Coil on Snday and it was a peice of cake. No problems with TF directions and using write ups from the forum. Air toolss deffinately make it easier.

If you're using the shock extensions and factory shocks, be careful when unbolting the top of the front shocks. If you have a lot of corrotion, it is easy to strip out the nut or twist off the stud. I have seen this done on many vehicles. Just soak them up good with liquid wrench and be patient.
