Tacos, this kit is just a spring spacer that fits between the spring and the spring perch. No trimming required. Just need a 18, 19mm wrench and socket, floor jack, jack stands and a couple of hours. One of the best ways to spend 120 buck on your rig.

Thanks, just with body lifts i know that you have to trim the shifter boot or try to move the whole body of the jeep or whatever. Just wondering if this kit makes the shifter pop out of 2nd 4th and reverse.

this is effectivly a 2" front 1" rear suspension lift. it has nothing to do with the body, shifter boot, etc. It just raises the location the frame rides in realation of the axles and springs.

Here are my before and after pictures of the lift. I swapped out my stock springs w/ 4 door, tow package, hard top springs and shocks as well as installing the leveling kit.

Wonder how this compares to a BDS/RC/SJ 2" Budget Boost? Or are they the same thing?

2" front and 1" rear/2" fr 2"rear/2.5" fr 2" rear?

Finally took off the 2" spacers in the front and added the 2.5" TF spacers with shock adapters. I am finally happy with how my Jeep sits now, I like it a little higher in the front.

Before: W/ TF Leveling Kit and TF Quick Discos


Now: W/ 2.5 TF Spacers and Shock Adapters up front, left the back the same, and SRC Rocker Guards. Much better IMO

so the leveling kit is 2" front 1" rear. Teraflex 2.5" BB is 2.5" front and 2" rear. a BDS/RC/SJ 2" budget boost would be 2" front and 1.5" rear? Or 2" front and rear? I'm confused. I am looking for something that will give me a true 2" overall lift.
