Default Teraflex leveling kit

I wanted to do the 2.5 bb lift from teraflex but I with racing every weekend and work I don't have the time to do it. Its for my wifes jeep. I have been quoted 400 to put it on I just can't justify paying more to put it on then it costs. So I decided maybe the tera flex leveling kit and advice opions or pics. Also this is for a 08 2dr

well for the install theres not much of a difference between the budget boost and leveling kit. i installed mine and it took a little less then an hour and that was doing it by myself. but the jeep was only a week old so everything came apart very easy.

The only difference between the 2.5bb and the leveling kit as far as installation goes is, the 2.5bb you have to install bump stops, brake line brackets and shock extensions. so its really not that much longer of a install then the leveling kit.

A leveling kit should require 95% the same amount of labor to install as that budget boost.
