Default 2.5 TF coil lift.

After reading all I could about lifts, decided to go with TF's 2.5 lift w/shocks-TF9550s(Just order)
My question is:
Do you guys that have this kit like the way it drives? Is it better then stock or worse. Does it handle better or worse?
I think the stock suspenion it really soft, I hope this kit will stiffen it up a bit.
I only plan to run 33's.
P.S Feel free to post pics of your jeep w/ this lift.
Here's mine 1day old.

I got the kit with the shock adapters because I'm just a cheap ass. I like the hell outta the way mine drives.

Here is mine with a TF 2.5 Coil lift w/ shocks, feels more stable on the road but my steering sucks because my castor is way too low causing it to be very flighty. I run 35's and definately plan to install ADJ track bars and control arms sometime here soon. Install the lift and see how you like it, and go from there. Oh and sweet color selection on your jeep! Welcome to the forum, Cheers

Thanks fellow jeepers.
All your pixs look like the front is alittle lower in the front. I want it to be level. Should I get a 1in spacer for the front coils. Maybe pixs are not true in real life.

3/4" spacer will help level that out 1" will be to much I think

Default TF 2.5" Coil Lift

I like the ride. My only challenge is a little bump steer on breaking or banked turns. I think the lift sits level. Attached is a picture of mine with 33's.
