Default New Lift, Wheels and Tires!

I am super excited to let you all know that I got my 3" teraflex kit installed today. With that my 18" Ultra Wheel "Magnus" with 35" Nitto Mud Grapplers.

It changed the Jeep 100% and I am very satisfied with the result. I have not had the time to take any more pictures than this one. More will come.

One question, It pulls left on the highway, and or change direction very easy. Normal?

That is exactly the setup I've been thinking of doing. No more thinking! It is almost as smokin' hot as the little redhead at work. Do you have any tire rubbing on hard turns?

Very nice.

No Spacer no nothing. No tire rub at all. I think its 5inch backspacing. You should hurry, as these wheels are limited. When I ordered they had 18 in stock which means they have 13 now. They are discontinued as far as I know.

Very nice jeep! Lift, Wheels and tires look awesome. Congrats! At 3" lift, did you get adjustable front lower arms? Sounds like you lost some caster in your alignment when lifting. This can give the sensation that it is flighty or wants to change directions easliy, and worst case the dreaded DW . May want to head for an alignment shop and see how much castor you have.

I did not get the adjustable lower arms, the guy recommended it, but I believe Tera didnt say it was required so I didnt get it right away. But they also recommended it. I doubt its a DW, but when I did a offramp I got the traction control working pretty hard and couldn't figure out why.

The same thing happened to me after installing the 2.5 TF lift. I had to adjust the arm that centered the steering wheel. The computer thinks you are sliding.
