1.5" Teraflex Leveling Kit w/ Rubicon Takeoffs

[SmokedTrail22]

I have the stock sport s suspension and was thinking of changing it out with some rubicon takeoffs and level it out with the teraflex 1.5" leveling kit. I was hoping if anyone had any pictures if they had done the same. I will take any suggestions. Thanks!

Teraflex is awesome, been using their product for many years - go for it I don't have any personal photos but I found this online...

I'm getting ready to do mine next week with same. I'm using heavier springs from a Rubicon (steel bumpers) and the 1.5 Teraflex kit. I'm adding the longer lower control arms from the Mopar 2" lift kit to get a little more caster. I'll try to remember to post pics.

I did this same set up. Rubicon springs, TF leveling kit, Fox shocks. I got more lift than I planned on up front with the Rubi springs so I had to add 3/4” spacers on the rear so there was no sag. I’m still happy with this set up going on 2-3 years now.

I have a 2024 Rubicon, and installed the 2.5 AEV spring lift right after taking delivery. I also installed 3/4” spacers in the front to help level the rig, and would do it again. Even with almost 1000 pounds in the bed, it levels out well.

AEV counseled against using the spacer, but IMHO, it was the wrong advice. Might be different if I consistently carried heavy loads, but that’s not my use case.

I did this to my Rubi after adding a steel OEM bumper and winch. I actually think the ride improved ever so slightly

So gang, with the Rubicon springs/shocks and Teraflex 1.5" spacer, aside from the slightly longer control arms, should I add longer end links? Nobody mentions doing this when adding just the leveling kit onto a Rubicon. :headscratch

I don't think you would need it with 1.5" of lift, at least I never changed it when I leveled my JT. But lets wait until the pros chime in

I put new Rubicon springs and shocks, 1.5" spacer up front, 3/4" spacers in the rear, and the Mopar lift LCAs up front. Also added takeoff Rubicon rims with the 285/70/17 Falkens. Rides better than stock. I ended up about 2.5 inches higher up front and almost 2 inches higher in the rear. I have been happy with it and will be going to 34" tires next go around.

Just to add to this post, you dont really need the Teraflex spacers. Spacers are spacers. I paid $150 for the Rubicon suspension off a Gladiator with only 500 miles on it. $100 or whatever it was for the LCAs from Mopar. Then for the spacers I found a combo kit on Amazon that had the front 1.5" spacers and the rear 3/4" spacers. Simple metal spacers and they have been perfect for a couple years now and cost me like $50 for all 4 spacers. So my budget lift was a total of about $300 and a day in the garage and rides better than stock. Prices have probably gone up now, but still the cheapest way to gain some height in my opinion.

If you are interested I have a nearly new set of Rubicon take off w/295-70r17 Falken Wildpeak MT's . I also have the complete Rubicon suspension other than the shocks. I would take $850 for all. Thanks-Bill

I got my Rubicon springs, shocks, and TF 1.5" leveling kit installed today. I did add the Mopar longer LCAs. Front increase of 2.25", rear increase of 1.00". It's almost perfectly level, with only 1/8" higher in the rear. Rides great on the road, up to 70mph so far.

Update: After a couple of long rides, the suspension settled and I lost .25" on the front. Still happy, but there's that.

Awesome! Can you post photos?

Looks great! How was the quality of the spacers off Amazon? Seen some similar kits that are much cheaper than the teraflex kit but am not sure if that is something to cheap out on.

Quality is fine. Just metal blocks. Been in a couple years and not a single issue. Not even any rust. I off road mine and they have been perfectly fine. No shifting. No squeaking. Trails and beach driving. Again whether they are Tera Flex or off brand metal ones from Amazon, they are just spacers. Just blocks to add some height. If I were doing a full suspension lift with springs and shocks, I would not cheap out.

1.5" terra on my 2025..... Super easy to do and a must do to get rid of the rake.
