Installed 2.5" teraflex coil lift- now rear is too low!
Alright guys. I just installed a 2.5" teraflex coil lift on my 08 unlimited sahara this weekend. Bought the kit with shock adapters but snapped bolts off stock front shocks trying to remove (Damn New England rust) them. Ended up installing a set of rc 2.2 shocks the local shop had left over (someone didnt like them). My problem is my rear now sits 3/4" lower than the front. Was looking into adding 1" spacers to the rear to get it level. Everything I read says most add spacers to the front to get it back to level if anything, wondering if my rear springs are short? Am I missing something? My kit did not come with and spacers for ontop of the springs, I just reused the rubber pads from factory springs. A lot of people say to avoid spacers with coil lifts but I need to level this thing out (and Im certainly not lowering the front to match). Will there be any real issues with this? Searched tons of threads, some say yes, some say no. Its a dd on 33.5" tires. No extreme wheeling or flexing. If I add the spacers will it effect the track bar? Or anything in unsafe way?
The spacers would be fine but i have never seen a lift that is lower in the rear. I had to add a 1" spacer to the front of my tf 2.5" coil kit to level it out. I would call teraflex and see what they say about it.
I have the 2.5" Teraflex coil lift with shock adapters. i also have TF coil spacers in the rear. I can't remember if they're 3/4" or 1" but my rear is a tad higher than my front. Just the way I like it.
That said, you can get a pair of RK wedges for 35 bucks that'll help raise the rear by correcting the spring bow. Thats the way I'd go.
