Should I install my 2.5 lift now or wait for my 35s? I rather install the lift while I have the help therefore when the tires come in I can install the tires. Do I have to do an alignment at a shop? Don't want to twice. Will Stock 17" tires and wheels be OK to use before the new tires and wheels come in? Some say I will need spacers after the lift with stock wheels and tires, but I do not see why, it's stock tires. This will only be for 2 months at most.

I'd wait, it will look slightly akward, but it doesnt really matter. Do it when you have the time, now or later.

No, just center your steering wheel

You need spacers if you are putting aftermarket tires on stock wheels. if using stock tires and wheels with a 2.5 lift or any lift, you do not need spacers
Posted on 6/27/12 at 10:12 am to NYCAuburn
was going to wait but I have to use the help when I can, It may only be for a few weeks up to over a month. Just rather get the work done when I can so when the tires come in I am ready.
The spacers issue, I figured I would not need them, but so many post online where some say yes even with stock tires. I think they get confused between tires and wheels and post before thinking. I just want to make sure.
Any recomendations for an adjustable track bar?

Poly Performance
Rock Krawler

These are all the companies you should look at for suspension parts. Poly is top notch shite. I personaly have RK pro stuff(aluminum) I was trying to save a little weight.

like I said, there is a lot of bad info out there, people get duped into believing shite. Just check out JK-Forum and the axle breaking BS

Some more pics from yesterday. My synthetic winch line came in yesterday evening. My trail jammer kit comes in today. Will put it on Friday. Also planning to get my radiator flushed and a new thermostat put in before we hit the trails for the 4th. Don't want overheating in these 100 degree temps on the trails.

Installed the lift yesterday. Not hard at all. Two person job, lift, two jacks, and assortment of wrenches. 6 hours from time we unloaded all the tools and then picked them all up.
Terraflex 2.5 coil lift Bilstein Shocks
My tires and wheel have been ordered. Tires are on backorder and should be in by the end of Aug

Love mine, but I'd never own a jeep.
so that everyone knows I'm just playing but I'd still never own one.

if they dont come in, try marcus at riverCity offroad, he seems to pull tires that are thought to be extinct. He got me a set of 37 mtr w/kevlar that were thought to be extinct. even had a goodyear rep tell me they didnt make them
