Teraflex 2.5" budgetboost
Hello, I just installed the Teraflex 2.5" budgetboost lift kit and my rear & front axle shifted is this an issue and what do i need to do about it if it is, also one set of instructions says that i need to have a wheel alignment and the other doesnt mention it, do you reccomend having the alignment or no. Thanks for any advise.

Most of your questions can be answered here.

Depending on how much the axle shift is you may not want to worry about it. If it is too much for your liking then your best option is adjustable front and rear track bars.

The shift isn't enough to be concerned about. I put the same lift on my Dads JK, and he didn't need an alignment. Heck, the steering wheel was still straight after the lift come to think of it. You should be fine. Ah the simplicity of the BB.

Hi
I have not done this lift myself but i have been following it very closely with the intent of putting one on soon.
It is an expected shift do to the geometry change from the lift.
All indications seem to be it is not a problem functionally but can be noticed if you look close. Apparently does not affect the Jeep at this lift level.
As for fixes it would be adjustable track bars front and rear or track bar brackets.

I wouldn't waste a few hundred on adj. trackbars if you don't need to. I needed one for my front end, but it was way out of wack. The $ adds up quick. One of the reasons I wish I went with the 2.5".

Thanks
The Steering wheel is still centered and it drives just fine, it just kinda bugs me knowing it is off center but if it doesnt pose any problems i guess i can live with it until i can buy the adjustable track bar. Thanks
