You will just need to make sure that the shifter doesn't hit where it comes through the floor. So you will have to open it up enough so the shifter is fully engaged when in gear.
I would like to run 33" tires and have a total lift of 3 1/2 inches mainly for the looks, this is my daily driver. Would it make more sense to do a 1.25" body lift and then a 2.5" lift to avoid changing steering, brake lines etc? This body lift looks like a great way to affordable start toward the final lift I want without making tons of other costly changes???
I wish you showed some after pictures. I have heard some say you dont notice ans others say a BL on a JK looks like crap. Would have been nice to see. And why you no upload in 1080P?!?!?!/!?
I like the Video but why don't you show the Jeep after the lift that's what everybody wants to see....how it came out! For that I give your video a 2 out 5 stars.
Teraflex quick disconnect sway bar links bracket doesn't fit after this install due to the front nuts being too big for the mounting hole. This hasn't been the easy thing to correct either, as the bracket material is very thick and impossible to drill out with a standard drill.
ok my question is if already have a 3 inch lift, springs, shocks and didn't need no mod, it was done on a 2008 stock sahara 6 speed. now can i put this body lift on my jeep with my current 3 inch lift with nothing to mod? or do i have to get anything extra
Do you need to add some sort of extension to your steering column after this? Wouldn't your steering wheel now sit 1.25 inches closer to your knees now?
One thing that is missing is that once a body lift is installed, the fan shroud is no longer on the center-line of the radiator fan and may interfere with proper fan operation. The answers to this dilemma might be to either trim the shroud at the bottom or add a one inch motor mount lift to correct this. Maybe not a problem with a JK but is for a TJ.
Incorrect, the fan is radiator and body mounted, it's electronic, not a mechanical clutch fan so it doesn't move from the shroud at all with a body lift, the fan is fixed to its should as a whole that's fixed to the radiator that's fixed to the body. ;)
Can I combine the body lift with your leveling kit? Do you recommend it? If so, how is the ride quality? Is the part number the same for a 2 door? I have a 2016 JK Willis 2 door.
Transmission is fixed to the chassis, with the engine obviously, a body lift's purpose is for tyre clearance, allowing bigger tires, in which gives you more over ground clearance from said bigger tyres. You want even more gear box and transfer case clearance? Then you'll have to go a bigger suspension lift again
thanks you for this its a good video and i go to put the body lift kit in my jk heuuuu no first i go to order the body lift kit I'm Seb Leb and i aprouve this message lol
Wesley Kremer I did; if you're referring to the issue of using regular jacks, I personally used a trolly jack with a cross beam attachment from harbor freight. worked just fine.
They can be very useful if you're looking to add slightly more tire clearance to an existing suspension lift. Many people don't like to go over 2.5" to 3" of suspension lift to prevent having to get into drivetrain modifications. But by adding a body lift, you still get the benefits of a decent suspension lift and more tire clearance.
3" seems to be the magical "do not cross" line when considering lifts that don't require you to get into more involved modifications with driveline, etc. That's why there are numerous 2.5 and 3 inch kits on the market.

Before & after Would Be Great! also do you guys have a video explaining what wheel spacers are for & how to install them.
how do you want me to buy this kit if you don't show any pics to see the result.
It will work just fine with that lift kit.
You will just need to make sure that the shifter doesn't hit where it comes through the floor. So you will have to open it up enough so the shifter is fully engaged when in gear.
A video for the manual transmission would be great.

Yes Kel is right where is the before and the after Pictures & Where is Jen?
I have a 2.5 teraflex suspension lift with shocks, how well would this work in conjunction with my lift? "safety, ride ext...."
I too am wondering what additional steps need to be taken with a manual transmission I have a 2008 Sahara unlimited, thanks!
Do you have to do anything special for a manual trans?
So no factory spacer to remove? This looked like a metal flange from factory then just toss a boot in?

ok my question is if already have a 3 inch lift, springs, shocks and didn't need no mod, it was done on a 2008 stock sahara 6 speed. now can i put this body lift on my jeep with my current 3 inch lift with nothing to mod? or do i have to get anything extra
just add the body lift and you are good to run up to a 37 inch tire.
Dennis
Will this work the same with a 3" spacer Lift? Will I need longer brake lines or any other parts?
I have a 2.5 lift on my jk can put the tereflex body lift on it too
The body pucks are they urethane or a composite material?
They are made out of a reinforced urethane material.
I have Smittybilt side steps that use those boots will this kit work with that?
Just wondering. Who is replying to all the tech questions? Is that Dr. Wood busy behind the keyboard?
Are there any concerns or issues using spacers over a lift kit? Changed angles or alignment, durability off roading, anything else?
Want to add this lift to my 2016 Rubicon unlimited will I have to trim my floor board as I have a manual transmission
what does TeraFlex have the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
Sorry we do not offer or suggest a 3" bodylift for a JK.
"Primitive means" LOL, Yea, I think I'll use a couple of boulders.
Would it be the same process with a 3" spacer? Also I have a manual what has to be done differently with that?
Do you need to add some sort of extension to your steering column after this? Wouldn't your steering wheel now sit 1.25 inches closer to your knees now?
Breno No you do not need to do that.
teraflexsuspensions, what about any wiring and fuel filler hose?
+Brent Kauser All of that is attached to the body, not the frame.
I just bought a 4" Long Arm kit. Will I need to do anything extra to add these spacers?
This + bush wacker fenders + 16" procomp 98's = 37" tires?
is there a bracket for the bumpers and the radiator?
Doesn't the gas filler tube need to be a raised?
How does it look after the lift? Have you got any pixs?
Do I need to do anything extra for a Manual Transmisson?
Cool! Thanks! ( Team Jen! )
does this affect steering at all
I have a 2013 JK. Can I do a 4" lift with a 1-2" body lift. Would that effect my driving or steering ??

What are the torq specs on the bolts?
Mine here just waiting to install glad it came with washer cause I hear their a bitch to take of the factory bolts
I have a 2 1/2 teraflex lift kit on my 2011 jeep wrangler, will there be a problem if i add a 1 1/4" body lift kit
No, there will be no problem adding in a body lift.
Can I combine the body lift with your leveling kit? Do you recommend it? If so, how is the ride quality? Is the part number the same for a 2 door? I have a 2016 JK Willis 2 door.
+Paul B If your looking to get 2.5" i would recommend the 2.5" kit, it will have a better ride quality.
So the body is lifted what do you do about the transmission?
Transmission is fixed to the chassis, with the engine obviously, a body lift's purpose is for tyre clearance, allowing bigger tires, in which gives you more over ground clearance from said bigger tyres. You want even more gear box and transfer case clearance? Then you'll have to go a bigger suspension lift again
Can I use these with a 3.5" lift?
Would be able to install a 2 inch body on an existing 4 inch suspension lift?
1.25 is the biggest we offer and recommend for not having to move a lot more things to make it work.
Is there anything different for a manual transmission?
These are designed for automatics only, but will fit a manual with some boot trimming and/or spacers.
Is there a gap at the bumpers? If so can that be corrected?
+STEPHEN BURKE Yes, we do not have anything to correct it.
will this lift require any radiator and steering modifications for jeep wrangler 2015
No all that is attached to the body, not the frame.
thanks you for this its a good video and i go to put the body lift kit in my jk heuuuu no first i go to order the body lift kit
I'm Seb Leb and i aprouve this message lol
will this work with my rancho 2 inch suspension lift kit?
Yes it will.
Should lock tight go on the bolts?
A little Blue thread lock never hurts.
Hi my name Tommy I'm have jk warangler 2017 do I can put in1."25 body lift kit on my jeep that ok
Yes, you sure can.
What is the maximum tire size can I but with this lift kit ?
Listen ...... Mm they said 35"
Has anyone completed this project in their driveway? Is there a video out there demonstrating how the normal guy can complete this install?
Wesley Kremer I did; if you're referring to the issue of using regular jacks, I personally used a trolly jack with a cross beam attachment from harbor freight. worked just fine.
I'm looking to run yalls 2.5in lift w/shocks along with this and 35in tires. I am new to the jeep life so if anyone sees any red flags let me know.
That is a great combination and you shouldn't have any problems with it!
TheEarl69 999 I have the exact same setup; I'm loving it.
it looks exactly the same, you wont see any difference with your eye, until you put on some larger tire.
where cars with 35 tires ??? ;)))
Now, do it u deer a shade tree like I would do.
What?
No you will not.
This music makes me feel sad.
BLs are great for that hardcore JK mall crawling
