Default Teraflex 2.5" coil lift

Installed the kit in 8 hours on saturday and then worked another hour on sunday after noticing that the new rear sway bars rub on the stock rims. Here are the results.

Nice! What size tires are they? Stock Rubi's? Did you install 2.5 with shocks as well? Looking forward to
do the 2.5" lift in the spring. Just wondering whether to go with 33" or 35" tires. I've got a 2010 Rubi and was
wondering cause you can put 33" tires on Rubi rims.

Looks good.

Unfortunately what you mention with the SB end links is all to common when using the factory rims. All the more reason to get some new shoes for her!...lol

X2 on that.
I put the same kit on my daughter's 2dr a few weeks back and just flipped the links to the inside of the mounts. She will be getting the wheels and 35s in the next week or so.

We did that temporarily till the customer could come up with the money for wheels and tires. The problem was with them mounted on the inside at full flex/large bumps the bolt/link contacted the frame.

They are the stock tires. You can go up to 35" tires with the 2.5" lift. I've ordered wheel spacers so I can use the same rims and flip the links back to the outside too.
