Question 2" Terrafirma air lift spacers

I just got my lift spacers from Lucky8 and after looking through the forums I couldn't find any install information.

It seems pretty straightforward but I was hoping to find some guidelines on the subject. Has anyone on here with the SLS installed spacers and is there anything I should be aware of before I dig into the install?

It's like Christmas morning and your birthday all rolled into one when you actually find installation instructions included with a Terrafirma part.

Got the air spacers on today.
A few things to note if anyone is looking into the Terrafirma rear SLS spacers.

1. You have to drill the mounting holes on the seat in order for the bolts to fit.


2. The bolts for the leveling sensor spacer are too short so I had to reuse the bolt that connected the arm to the chassis.


Everything is pretty straight forward, Im pretty confident I did this right but to me it seems like its sitting a lot higher than 2". Also when going over bumps there is now a bit of a popping noise in the rear but that went away when I came back from my test drive. Im assuming the air bags were setting into place.

Im not sure about using the SLS button with the spacers as I'm afraid it might put too much tension on the brake line and ABS line. Im going to hold off on maxing it out until I get the extension lines in.

Here is a before and after ( 2" lift already on front in first photo.)




After:

looks good!
I'm thinking of either adding 1" spacers all around to my 2" lift Disco or go ahead and **** off the wife and get the 3" Struts and springs Lift kit since my struts and springs seem a bit knackered.

Thanks man, and if the previous owner didn't already have a relatively new set of OME shocks and struts all around I would have just replaced them but being they're in good shape I'm going to invest that money in tires.
