ok, I want to install a FT Premium lift, but I have some 35's I"d like to run untill I can order the FT lift. Do you all have any issues with the BB lifts? whats best BB to go with?

 

I love my Teraflex 2.5 BB. Complete kit, easy install, good price, and works great!

 

You'll hear mostly positive on the Teraflex kit. I like mine as well. Installed myself without power tools in about 2.5 hours and very straight forward. Happy with the ride quality too.

 

did u guys use stock shocks??

What about axle positions?

 

I used the TF 2.5"BB with shock adapters. this extends your stock shocks. Works great.

 

There is a used TF BB in the for sale section...

I used the stock Rubicon shocks with the shock adapters. I'm not sure how the X shocks are. I think they are alot softer then the Rubi's, but I dont have any first hand experience there.

As far as the axles, my axles are off, but Im not too worried about it right now. It drives and handles fine. I will add both front and rear track bars eventually to correct this, but its not high on my priority list. Id rather put the money towards some bumpers and armor.

 

I have the 2" FT BB and can't seem to detect/measure any shift at all - no track bar relo bracket in use. What is a solid way to measure shift?

 

I havent actually measured mine yet. I just eyeballed them. But to actually measure, use a 2x4 pushed flush against the front of your tire and measure to a fix point that will be consistent on both sides, like the frame. I have read that most people have seen the front axle off by about 3/8" and the back by about 1/2". Without measuring, mine looks to be off about that much.

 

IF I get the FT 2"BB Some of those parts will stay on when I do the Premium lift right? I might do that just to run my 35's till I order the 3"
