Teraflex extended travel rear brackets

[Zachanadandy]

Anybody running these?

Seems like they could help with the suspension geometry after a lift with our super long lowers and short uppers. Anybody do any flex testing after install? After experiencing the difference the front control arm drop brackets made on our JLUR I'm all about running the least angle possible on the control arms. I'm only running the 2" AEV spacer kit on my Mojave but I figure every little bit helps. I'll probably run drop brackets up front 1st but this caught my eye and I'm not seeing many reviews in a quick search.

I'm running the TeraFlex 2" extensions. They definitely help with the shocks and suspension allowing more travel. I have 2" spacer lift front and rear.

The AEV lift comes with shock extensions. This bracket raises the rear upper control arm so that it is flat at ride height, supposed to improve downtravel and minimize pinion dive caused by the short upper and long lower control arms in the rear.

Ah, skimmed it, so didn't see which bracket it was. Lol if you get them, let us know how they work.

I have them. Not installed yet. Waiting on my new control arms. CrazyCooter has them installed.

I installed it a few days ago and removed them today . The JT drove almost like it did before I added the front geo brackets ( Rancho ). If the road dipped to the right slightly
the Jeep tried to also . So they are work bench ornaments for now

I have the Teraflex ones installed ( 1938225 ) installed, ie the ones in the original post for the control arm bracket. Helps when you droop the rear end. I was able to lift my rear end and get my 4.5" Evo springs out without disconnecting the rear drive shaft when I was doing some work. Without them it would bind up at the rear pinion so I used to have to remove the rear driveshaft to be able to droop enough to get the springs out.

They reduce pinion dive during suspension cycling which I can only see as a good thing.

From the Rockjock site, they have a similar product.

Necro but might as well add my +1, I have these too (as part of their whole extended rear travel kit). Rear brackets (any make) are not like front brackets where you might expect a difference in daily driving (see post #6) - it's strictly for improved angles at full droop. And only if you've made it possible to droop more than stock anyway - stock sway bar, stock control arm joints, stock brake lines etc will all limit things. And you'll likely get away with the pinion angle shown above for a while too. Anyway I'm a big fan of the travel I get in my rear suspension with this setup, even with a big overland camper load on it

The fact that these don't help the daily driving is the reason I decided to go with the triangulated 4 link. They do everything these do for pinion drive plus they eliminate the side to side movement of the axle on compression and extension which really smooths out the rough roads at speed. Probably not so important with a cable loaded on it, but for the mojave it definitely seemed like the better choice.

I might have done the same if there was a 4-link for the diesel that didn’t require a ton of custom work
