Great pictures, thanks for posting them.

I have ave a couple questions as this kit is one of 2 I’ve narrowed myself down too. If I go with TF, I’d use the 3.1s instead of 3.3s.

I’m on a budget so will be doing the lift myself in my driveway. I know that’s not optimal and my question is, can it be done with just one person (by myself), or is a 2nd set of hands necessary?

How Long did the kit take to install in your shop (vs what TF claims)?
How much does your shop charge to install the kit?

My other choice is the MatalCloak Game Changer w/ Fox shocks.
Have you also also installed the Metal Cloak?
if so, how would you rate/compare the kits and level of skill to DYI the installation of each?

edit:
how much adjustment was needed after the kit was initially installed on the CT3?

It can be done with 1 person, with experience, but it is not a simple system to install.

Sent you a PM

All the time, they make an awesome product as well, just a matter of deciding, I think both make an equivalent product. Fox shocks are definitely a stiffer shock.

Virtually the same components get replaced, so install really is the same.

None, just an adjustable control arm alignment, definitely want someone who knows what they’re doing, aligning your Jeep, this isn’t a standard alignment.
