Exclamation Tera Flex Leveling 1 1/2 Kit Disintegrated

When I first got my Jeep back in 2011 I put a Teraflex Puck leveling kit in it. Worked and drove great. About a year and a half later I installed a 3" coil lift and put the TF lift on a shelf. Fast forward to a couple of days ago we installed the pucks in a friends Jeep and by the next day the front coil pucks fell apart. Anyone else ever seen or had this happen? Pucks were stored in my garage. I suppose they dry rotted but they looked and felt ok before we installed them. Not even sure how long they should last.

Yikes..... That's the first I've heard of any kind of failure of a puck.

I remember someone posting about this happing to their Teraflex spacers in the rear, but I can't seem to find it. It was probably a year or more ago.

Never seen it personally.

Things like pucks and the stock bump stops and such will dry rot over time especially if they are in a climate that see’s a bunch of hot and cold cycles so not really surprised.

Speaking of the bump stops if running the stock ones put your fingers on them and see if they are starting to crumble.

I bet if they are 5 years or older they are about toast
