Hey Steelerman, Are you origionally from the Burg or just another die hard Steeler fan? Frank[addsig]

Most coil spacers are 1.75". Stock spring isolaters are .75" and are stackable to a desired height.[addsig]

steelerman, I have the Tera long arm kit with a 1 inch body lift. I just recently added Tera's .75 in. coil spring spacers, when I received the spacers they measured 1.25in. So I just added them to the isolators and went with that much height. Looks great, probably could run 37's :-D . Tera also says that they won't warranty anything over their .75 in. spacer. Hope this helps. By the way what color is your jeep?[addsig]

whats up ajfrank. My jeep is the white Sahara version. I wanted to ask you about the handling. Did you add anything steering wise for control? The shop said I should be fine. Of course the are udjusting the short shaft and drive shaft. They said if I went to a 6-8 inch lift they would want to do a high steer knuckle and draglink and tracbar work. Hopefully I'll have everything I need. They said we might have room for bigger tires but don't go past 35's because of our axle sizes.[addsig]

steelerman, I just installed currie's new tie rod and drag link assembly, but thats about it. I never put my dropped pitman arm on and I use a rancho steering stabalizer. Currie says that their steering kit is good only up to 6 inches I have 7.5 and it's fine. [addsig]

ajfrank, I don't think they are adding anything for my steering. Do you think I'll be okay or should I add something. Anything semi inexpensive???? that system they want to put on mine is around $1400. I was hoping to avoid that. But then again then is it neccessary??? How much was the currie and rancho stablizer?[addsig]

The Currie steering kit was about $400 and the steering stabalizer was about 45 bucks. I would most definitly get an aftermarket steering stabalizer, the stock one is just not enough with big tires. You said 35's for tires right? Well all the stock steering on your jeep is 1 inch hollow tubing, which tends to bend easily. The Currie kit is 1.25 inch SOLID tubing, much stronger for those big tires. The first time with the lift and everything and I bet my tie rod all up on some rocks. The guys a Currie say that the stock steering will brake if you try to bend it back, but the Currie steering can be re-bent a bunch of times. I'm even thinking of getting that AGR rock ram steering. Maybe someday! :-D [addsig]
