Default OME LT Kit 2012 JKU Driveshaft

I am putting a OME LT Kit (HD Springs) on my 2012 JKU and I plan to replace the Front Driveshaft with a Coast at the same time.

Do I still need to do the Teraflex spacers or the AFE y-Pipe?

Thanks

Yes. IMO, and in my experience, the TF spacers are a waste of money.

I have the same OME LT HD kit and the drive shaft just touches the exaust when the jeep is fully off camber/ flexed. You should be more than fine with the drive shaft. This is assuming you are going with the 2-3" kit and not the 4". To be sure give Dave at Northridge 4x4 a call.

no. you will not need to do the spacers or y-pipe if you install a new drive shaft.

Good to know I don't have to mess with the exhaust.

One more question on this lift. It comes with a rear trackbar so should I get a rear trackbar enforcement at the same time? Which one would go well with this kit?

Thanks
