Default Teraflex 4 inch short arm

Has anybody heard anything good or bad about this lift? I'm looking for something I can get good flex with but still b somewhat stable on the highway.

Either the picture or the price is wrong. (yeah, the pic is a $2000+ lift)

Teraflex has a good rep, and you can contact them on this forum for more info.

Be sure to factor in the other components you will probably want for a 4" lift. (, front trackbar, draglink flip, driveshaft, whatever else)

It does look awfully cheap for all the arms...

Rough Country 4inch long arm...

Or do you know anything about this lift... It says it's a complete lift kit but I'm new to the jK world so I'm just confused when it comes to needing a longer track bar or pitman arm.....

Instead of posting a constant stream of lifts, start by opening and reading the two threads stickied to the top of this modified area. Get a handle on what all of the various components do, at what heights you are likely to want them, lift heights for various tire sizes, gearing for various tire sizes, etc, etc.


And a quick search brought up this this thread from just a few days ago...

Looks like that vendor is showing the pic of the higher end 4" kit but are really trying to sell you our basic kit. The part #1151421 is just basic 4" kit that has no control arms/front trackbar/shocks with it. The actual kit in the picture is a 3" 8-Flex-Arm kit with no shocks.

Watch out what you actually get in a kit from a vendor. Go by the part number and not the pic.

What size of tires are you wanting to run?
