Trailmaster lift kit

I am thinking of buying a trailmaster 4 inch lift kit. and i was wondering if they are a good lift. If they ride smooth and have good flex. well if anyone has any experience with them write me back. Thanks

please write back as soon as possible

Moab Jeeper,

I just installed a 3" Trailmaster on my 93 Wrangler & went with 33x12.5 BFG ATs on AR Outlaw I 10" wheels.

I installed a 4" Trailmaster on my 87 Wrangler back in 88. The original job was much easier as the bolts were only 1 year old. The most recent job was a little tougher with all of the rust & frozen shackle sleeves but a Sawzall & some new hardened steel bolts did the trick.

The Trailmaster is a complete kit with very good instructions, not all competitive kits supply the parts the TM does. The ride starts out stiff but gets better as the springs relax after a month or two.

The little things to look out for after you install are:

1) Gearbox will be a little stiff as the transfer case is moved back, I've heard that cutting the internal boot will loosen this up. I have cases where the shifter will pop out of gear. My old 87 would constantly pop out of reverse.

2) Front end will need to be aligned & steering wheel straightened.

3) Turn signals don't always go off after turn - this may be tire related.

The only downside of the TM has been that the customer service from the Tech Support hotline has been non existent. I've left numerous messages & e-mails to get little hints for fixing some of my problems & to get new caster & camber specs for the vehicle with the new stance. I have not received a call or an e-mail yet.

Best of luck - happy Jeepin'.
