Teraflex 2.5 coil lift vs. 1.5 performance leveling kit
I know that I want one of these two options. I plan on running 33 inch Duratracs on either 15 or 16 inch MT Classic II wheels.
I hit the rocks about 3-4 times a year, and the rest is fairly moderate stuff.
Do I need the flex of the 2.5, or do I save a little money and go with the simpler Peformace Leveling Kit, they also gives me a coil lift?

Just got the coil lift and 33 Duratracs on Friday. I had considered the leveling kit, but figured it was worth the extra cash. And I'm glad I spent it...

With 33's and your wheeling, I think the leveling kit would be adequate, but I don't think you'd regret getting the 2.5", either. You'll be in better shape if you decide to move up in tire size after you wear out those 33's and re-gear.

I've been grinding up my tires and wheels with the stock Rubicon suspension. I will probably do a leveling kit with 33" tires and fender when the stock tires finally give it up.

I am having this same debate. Is anyone with a 4 door running the performance levelling kit, bushwhacker flat flares and 34 or 35 inch tires? Would love some picts and thoughts if so. Afraid the 2.5 and 35's will look funny with the flats and I don't want the extra cost and hassle of 37's. Also will the levelling coils hold up to aftermarket bumpers, towing, etc?

That makes a couple of us that are looking to go this route. I have a 2011 4 door as well and would love to see a pic of one with the 2 1/2" coil lift and 33s. Even better if I could find one on stock rims... the things we wish for. lol

I've got the TF Leveling Kit. Raises you 2 inches in the front and 1 inch in the back. It works good with 285s on green blue trails and blue trails with black and red lines. Black you will scrape.
Moving up to a 4 inch lift now though but staying on the 285s.
