Default axel shift w/t teraflex bb & shock adapters and bds drop bracket

just went and measured

front is out to drivers side by 3/4 of an inch
rear is out drivers side by 3/8 of an inch

others may vary due to spare tire size bumpers and other add ons

I'll correct the front to being even w/t a blackdiamond adj frt track bar and as for the rear I might just stick in another oem isolator the rise of about 1/2 an inch should bring her dead on plus give a little more rise

Default BDS Bracket

I have a 2 door with the TF BB and BDS bracket in the rear. when the lift was installed they left the rear rubber isolators out and my rear axle is 1/4 off to the drivers side. so you think If i put the isolaters back in it will move it closer to center? my front is off 1/4 to the drivers side as well, I am thinking about a adjustable track bar for the front as well. I wonder if there will be a noticeable difference if I center both axles in the way it handles and steers.

they left them out ??? can they not read ??

put them back in the increase in height will pull your rear axel towards the passenger side a bit almost recentered

as for the front it will make a little difference but nothing incredible

Does anyone know if the 3" TF BB kit comes with everything needed to keep the body aligned properly?

No such thing as a TeraFlex 3" BB kit. I'm assuming that your taling about the 2.5"s and yes they now are shipping with the little trackbar bracket to put the rear centered.

I ordered my 2.5" BB on the 6th of this month from Northridge4x4. Does this mean I will kit the bracket? I asked northridge and they said it doesnt come with one.

JulietKilo,

So did your kit come with the bracket?

Nope, and I am not going to order one either. I did not install the stock spring isolators so I did not achieve the full 2.5 inches I probably got around 2 inches with them out. My axle is about dead center, it may be about a quarter of an inch off from my measurements.

Correct. The BDS bracket is actually for their 3" kit.

An adjustable track bar would be best, but the BDS appears to be a cheaper plan B.
