Just installed Teraflex 3" lift and 35" BFG KM2's
I did the install myself, took about 8 hours total, two trips to the parts store to get the correct spring compressors (you will need them). Everything went smoothly, i started with the back like the instructions say and had the backend done in about 2-3 hours. Then i started on the front and everything was going great until it came time to install the springs. 3" longer springs are just too long to get in there without a compressor. I added an adjustable trackbar to the front and now that i've got the tires on i noticed that i need to readjust the trackbar. The front axle is shifted over to the driver's side by about an inch. I plan on doing my own alignment next.
The tires are just incredible looking. These are the Beefiest tires i've ever had. The pictures just don't do them justice. They are fairly quiet and smooth when you get up to speed but are a little bumpy when going less than 5mph.
Specs: stock my jeep sat at 36" to bottom of the fender in the rear and 35" to the bottom of the fender in the front. After lift and tires in now sits at 42" and 42". It is totally level now and i'm really jazzed.
Next on the list: a programmer, new gears, and a tire carrier that can hold a 35" tire.

the angle of the dangle!
here is some click frees:
Your Jeep looks great!!! I love my 3" teraflex! Nice Jeep.
Here is what mine looks like. The 3" lift somehow gave me like 5" in the front and just over 4 in the back. I am 6'1" tall and now have to pull myself up into it.

Looks Great! I installed the 4" Teraflex, and was able to easily install the springs by leaving the stops unbolted until after inserting the springs. Again, your Jeep looks Great!
