Default Teraflex BB with coils and shocks.

I'm installing a teraflex bb with coils and shocks
also a front adjustable track bar.
I'm also putting 35's on
just curious if I need anything else.
Any input would be great.
Also looking at regearing to 5.13's
do I need lower control arms?
Any help is greatly appreciated
thanks from a newbie

Running the Tera coil lift with 35's and love it. You will need to regear at some point but unless you live in a really hilly area it is tolerable. Control Arms would be nice but have been fine without them.

Ok, are you putting on a budget boost (spacers) or a 2.5" coil lift?

Either way, I would advise front lower control arms. And rear upper control arms if you have a 2dr.

Oh, and if you do a lot of freeway driving, or you have a D30 up front, don't go with 5.13's. Go with 4.88's, and if you have a manual, you may even wan't 4.56's if you do lots of freeway. It will keep your RPM's in a better range.

I installed TF coil lift last weekend with front adjustable trac bar but I haven't bought front lower control arms yet... Had it aligned and the caster is low (3.1 deg, should be 5-6 with 35s) which front lower CA's would correct but driveability is fine so those will come in the next few months when and extra bag of $$$$ appears on my doorstep
