Hey everyone, I have a ‘21 Sport Altitude and just received my Teraflex .5” spacers. I’m going to stack 2 of them for a 1” lift all-around. This is my wife’s DD and will likely see nothing more than speed bumps and the occasional gravel road/trail. That considered, should I be ok with only the spacers and stock everything else? I see a lot of people mentioning extended bump stops and shock extensions but it seems that those people are referring to needing those items for heavier wheeling. Planning to install spacers tomorrow so any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Your good dude….. if it drives, or handles any different, report back here with what it’s doing,….. go from there.

You aren't planning to go with larger tires, so you don't need bump stop extensions.

On a 1" spacer lift, I'm not completely sure whether Sport shocks can accommodate this extra length. Rubicon shocks definitely can.

Thanks. Mine came stock with 32’s and now on 33’s (275/70/18 - no lift). I believe the Altitude has Sahara shocks and brakes.

Its cold, wet and nasty here, today, but I’ll try to get some over the next few days with a similar angle to the “before”.
