comparing 2.5-3 inch lifts
so ive been bouncing between a few different lifts the main one being the Teraflex 2.5 inch kit for my 2010 JKU sahara 6spd. has anyone run this and how it compare to the actual netted lift or has anyone run a similar 2.5 - 3 inch kit and how was it / how was the net lift vs advertised
Yes...Here it is. Teraflex 2.5" coil lift with Bilstein shocks. It's my Daily Driver and off-roader. Rides great and no issues with 35" tires rubbing when flexing. I never took pre/post measurements but TF claims 3.1" front / 2.1" rear.
Old Man Emu makes around 18 different coils and you choose them based on ride height and the weight of your rig. The HD models are made with a higher spring rate to compensate for heavy rigs, the HD+40 can handle even more weight. Most people can run the no load coils and still sit around 2.5" of lift with a steel bumper and small winch. Teraflex on the other hand offer one coil for every vehicle and are known not to be able to handle weight very good over time.
ah thats perfect thats definitely something im going to look into then i dont plan on running a ton of weight but will still be steel bumpers and a 37in spare in the rear trunk area that im putting in a bracket im building so moderate weight ill have to take a look at these OME coils thanks dirtman

I run this kit on my 2dr. I got the 4dr springs cause I have a heavy two door and netted a little over 3 inches up front. Im not sure how much I netted in the back because I have no idea what to measure now that I cut my fenders and sitting on 37s. Somone posted the diagram for the front stock suspension measurements but I have not seen one for the rear. My rig does sit level if that helps so maybe around two inches in the rear?
