Default Instaled teraflex 2.5 coil lift today

So today I put in the lift. A lot of parts so I was hesitant on doing it myself. Found teraflex's YouTube page and oh boy did it help ALOT! They say it takes around 4 hours. Took me exactly 4 hours! Highly recommended lift. Great job teraflex!

Cool Steering

Remember to adjust your steering wheel as to not mess with your BAS EPS system (breaking). SHould look real nice.

if you prep yourself by reading the instructions a few times and watching some vids, it is SOO easy. i did mine without a hiccup on a warm december day last year and had it done before sundown without a meal or pee break.

I would be scared driving that close to a pool... the concrete is much thinner than a driveway, and it tends to be hollow or loosely packed dirt. Its a recipe for disaster to have something that heavy that close.

Other than that, good job! Installing your own stuff is very satisfying

^ What about the jack stands stacked on multiple 2x4's! Yikes!!! Not to mention the unsecured block on top of the jack. This is a safety scenario disaster zone! At least the wheels were chocked!

Anyway, nice job, looks good!

Default 2X4's

The 2x4's are there to prevent the concrete from chipping! Nice work can't wait to see some off road pics!
