I installed the Teraflex 6in LCG kit yesterday. What a nice kit. everything installed very clean and looks awesome. Here is a few teaser pics from then install. the Jeep is not completely finnished in these pics but you will get the idea, full write up to follow shortly.

(note) passenger tire is 45 in in the air!

You still using the same long Bilsteins?

I am, the front lower mounts have to be moved out. I did all the mesurements and I will be able to run the shocks with this set up. I have the limit straps set to the right lengh in the pic, just havnt moved the mounts yet to install the shocks.

 

[AdamORW]

No shocks?

the only shock not mounted is that driver side front shock. shocks will be installed on wednesday.

 

[AdamORW]

So I gotta ask...why the switch?

I dont have anything bad to say about the FT kit, I just relized I wanted more ground clearance and the Teraflex kit offered that with the dog leg arms and the factory crossmember. and im just a gluton for punishment.

 

[AdamORW]

That is totally SICK!. I know...full write up on the way. Please include detailed info on the Bilstein shocks and the INSANE springs your using.

Hey Stub,
Thanks again for the offer of the crossmember, I had someone here in San Diego come threw for me. Sorry I didnt let you know sooner. I will get you all the info on the shocks as soon as I can, as for the springs...they are the Teraflex 6in LCG coils that come in the kit.

 

[AdamORW]

i think you should donate your old suspension to me

I havnt decided what Im going to do with the FT kit yet. I need to talk to Patrick.

 

[AdamORW]

any pics of it sitting level?

not yet, I just took thos pics after we built it. its back up on a rack again, but I will get more pics of it for you this week.

 

[AdamORW]

Thanks! I'm interested in you shock setup as well. That's the best flex I've seen on a JK.

Anyone want to guess what the RTI score on that would be?

I have the answer, but I would like to know what people think....:stirthepot:

 

[AdamORW]

1392 im gunna have to do something to break that magic 1400 mark. lol

 

[AdamORW]

yeah im pretty impressed myself. the best part is it is very stable at this height. I was still able to climb into the Jeep when it was on the fork lift. i bet I could get a bit more if I took the rear swaybar off.

 

[AdamORW]

Add me to the "HOLY CHIT!!!" list.

Cant wait for the write-up!

Hey Hundy, you gunna be around Sept 27th? we are having a huge Grand opening party at our new Temecula store. You and Brett should come and hang out.

 

[AdamORW]

Adam is gonna raffle off his jeep.

not even if hell froze over dude

 

[AdamORW]

muhuhahhahahahaaaa.

So when you getting 60's and coil overs?

im out of money...I am doing the Solid Spintec hubs on the D44 next. Im pretty confident that the D44 will hold up. You will see a write up of that install hopfully before next month. im sure 60s will come sooner than later but not for now. Coilovers on the other hand, Im trying to get Teraflex to make a kit to go with their LCG kit but they dont know if there is enough demand yet. I know Mel has a kit that I can afford but I still wont be able to afford the shocks and coils so its pointless to put it on the list right now. After this run of installs next on the list is full hydro steering and thats gunna be IT for this year I swear.

 

[AdamORW]

Yeah, Mel has a nice setup, but man those King's are EXPENSIVE. That PSC steering setup is pricey too...I saw it on Curries Jeep and it looks killer tho.

Did the Currie Jeep have the hydro assist kit on it?

 

[AdamORW]

It has the full PSC setup, with the ram and whatnot.

thats what im talkin about! I need that.

 

[AdamORW]

I'm also hoping they get their drag link and tierod out soon too.[/QUOTE]

yeah my tie rod is bent pretty good. but it works for now so im gunna run with it.
