Jeep Wrangler JL Teraflex 2.50-Inch Base Suspension Lift Kit Review & Install

Realize your Jeep’s potential with the Teraflex 2.50-inch Base Lift Kit. This kit contains a set of 2.50-inch springs, sway bar links, and bump stops for a complete base lift that doesn’t compromise on handling. After installation, you’ll be able to sport up to 35-inch tires so you can cruise over off-road obstacles without effort.

Lift Coil Set. The Teraflex 2.50-inch Base Lift Kit contains a pair of front coils and a pair of rear coils. These spring coils bring up your suspension by 2.50 inches. It is recommended to use Longer Shocks or use Shock Extensions (Teraflex part# 1985200) if you wish to re-use your factory shocks.

Sway Bar Links Included. The kit includes a complete set of rear sway bar links. The longer rear is 10.75 inches. Combined, they work to align the suspension geometry of your lifted Jeep ensuring a stable ride and flawless handling.

PSA:
To 99% of the people installing the base kit without shocks, extra front bump stop spacers, sway bar link brackets, track bar brackets etc. At home with Jack stands and no lift. YOU DON'T NEED ALL THAT SHIT IT IS JUST A BASIC 2.5 SUSPENSION UPGRADE. You don't need to loosen your track bar and control arms at all, you do need to disconnect the breather hoses and the CAD cable though.

If you run into trouble fitting the new front coils even after using the coil compression tool just get a hi-lift jack and Jack the front side you are working on, use a d ring as jack point (work on one side at a time leave one side with the tire on the ground but disconnect both sway bar links). With a 48" hi lift you don't even need coil compressors. Good luck don't over think it.

How come it says at 10:20, when the brake line bracket is cut off, that the bracket is being replaced with one from the kit? This kit doesn't seem to come with a brake line bracket, and I don't see one in the video either.

Cresent wrench? Looks like a combination wrench to me.

I installed this kit yesterday on a 2021 JL 4 door. Some of the parts that you show as included in your kit are not included, such as the rear track bar relocation bracket, and the additional pads or spacers for the bump stops. Has Teraflex just decided to sell incomplete kits, so that they can charge you more for what you thought you were getting? The quality of the included parts are fine, but now the Jeep is stuck on a lift for a week while I order and pay and wait for parts that were shown as included.

Teraflex states to install the front sway bar end links upside down and the top nut on the outside. This is to prevent clearance issues. Does it matter?

I just purchased this exact kit but I am missing 2 sway bar links. The strange thing is that the parts list in the manual states that there’s only 2 sway bars included. Are 2 not needed after all? The instructions still reference replacing both the front and rear sway bar links.

Is this kit compliant with the eco diesel wrangler JLU? If so then I’m sold. It’s what I want.

[FireSlayerYT]

just got a JL 4 months ago, gonna keep the 17 in wheels and maybe upgrade to 35s, do i need a lift and if so what’s the cheapest one?

Do you know the difference between an open end wrench and crescent? Kind of scary

[xtina]

What's the point of this kit if you need to buy different shocks?

[gerardoantonio]

This kit is incomplete, I 've should ad a front adjustable trakbar, .. because it was impossible to do alignment, the axel was move to driver side almost 1 inche .
