Please respond back with how it rides. I'm planning a teraflex 2.5 lift as well.

 

i will give updates after install and some miles .

also getting my spidertrax spacers from a fellow member purchased this week.

 

Sweet! I've got Spidertrax as well. 1.75" waiting to go on with the lift.

 

A word of advice on the wheel spacers. Put some antiseize grease where the spacer makes contact with the hub surface. Ask me how I know.

 

Get tired of hitting them? lol I'll def do that thanks for the reminder

 

I'm running the Teraflex 2.5in coil lift with VSS shocks. I would recommend AEV geometry correction brackets (or similar). I did not have these when I first installed my lift. After adding the brackets my ride quality improved and the brake dive was gone.

As far as carriers, I just mounted a 35in spare on a Smittybilt oversized carrier (P/N 2743) and I am happy so far.

 

2.5" is a far better choice. You would have ended up getting into drive shafts and such at 3.5" if you actually use your Willys. We have a Willys Wheeler Special Edition Facebook page, you go join it. We have over 600 Willys owners on the page and it is extremely active with some knowledgeable fellows.

Yea.... I used a cut off wheel to remove one of mine. It was a project. I was using chisels and sledge hammers, decided that I had already ruined the dang thing so out came the 7" Dewalt cut off. What a PITA.

 

i dont have the willy's anymore i traded it in back in may. loved it but missed a truck. this is all going on my 4 door rubi.

 

the tereflex lift and bilstiens got delivered today. looking at the geometry correct brackets now. is one brand better than the other?

 

AEV is a popular choice. Some say JKS or Rancho are built stronger. I have no experience with either yet but will probably be getting a set as soon as I decide on lift
