Default teraflex 2.5" bb

i am interested in getting one of these kits. i will b putting it on a 09 unlimited and will be a daily driver. my questions are, will this kit b good for a daily driver? will i have to get anything else with the kit? i want it to ride as close to stock as possible. i will b putting 33" tires too. so any info would be great. also any reasons why i shouldn't get this kit. i haven't done much off roading and don't plan to do much either. not many places to go around here.

You will need lower flex arms if you want to set camber to specs
Guess how I know?? All JKs will pull right without adjustable lower flex arms

Mine didn't pull. And you can't set camber on jk's unless you get offset balljoints

if you dont plan on wheeling then just buy the 33s and save your money with the BB.

i have a teraflex bb on my daily driver, works great with 33's. looks alot better with the lift then without. also do some mild wheeling with it, also works great. as far as the ride it is a little stiffer then stock, feel the bumps a little more. go for it,

I put a Teraflex leveling kit on with 33" rubber. Like the look and the price.

Not to hijack the thread, but what is the ride difference between the leveling kit and 2.5" BB?

I think he meant caster. I'm a newbie, so what's camber?

I put the BB on mine about 3-4 weeks ago drove it with the stock wheels... it rode great just like stock! Then i put 35"s on and it got a bit more bumpy. Tire pressure is huge i noticed. the more you air them down the smoother it is... higher pressure better gas mileage but rougher ride... 33"s will look great with the BB it looks ok with the 35"s imo but i need to go higher! My tires rub a bit when wheeling... i wasnt planning on wheeling much cause i wanted to keep it nice but i dont think thats gonna happen anymore!!! I'm looking to get rid of mine soon if you want...
