Suspension advise
So one of my front shocks is gone blew bearing
now should I go with the 2 inch lift plus the skeleton towers ?? My towers don’t look bad but I heard the Atlantic British skeleton towers are a big improvement. Thoughts ?? Or stick with stock medium duty springs and shocks terrafirm ? Will I regret it later not getting the 2 inch lift |
I guess I'm out on left field in the dark.
Shocks don't have bearings. Not sure what difference a shock tower could make. Can't effect damping or ride. A lift is a nice improvement in my eyes as these rigs sit very low stock. |
I decided to install the terrafirma 2 inch lift kit
suprised to find out they are made in China |

Easier than I thought it would be! i got my rear done yesterday the springs are really hard to get it I had to use spring compressors to get mine in and my axels are dropped all the way. It’s been a real pain |
Bottle jack between the axle & frame = coils will go right in (on the rear remove the 13mm nut on each side that secured the ABS/brake line to get more flex). I haven’t used those crazy spring compressors in years.

Once the rear brake line bracket is loose (you gain more slack) yep you pump the bottle jack a few times & either remove or install your coil spring.
