Reviews: Trail Master 4.0 Inch Lift Kit with NCG Shocks - TM3440-20013

The kit was installed on my personal Jeep. The Trailmaster Kit was complete but I added a couple of parts. GDRD-FBL-48 Front extended brake lines GDRDRBL-48 Rear Extended brake lines R/ERE1600 Front adjustable track bar EXP20-65226 Front cam bolts EXP20-65225 Rear cam bolts Some of the bolts on the transmission skid plate will break. We soaked them down with PBR and got lucky when we only had two break. Be ready with some inserts and a welder You will need them. The rear upper shock bolts will give you trouble as well. The Trailmaster kit has a great ride quality and a great price i would buy this kit again if needed.

I must say I was a little nervous buying this brand because I couldn't find many threads about about personal experiences, but I took the risk and I'm glad I did. Everything came in with no issues, install was very easy, everything bolts right on, my Jeep TJ rides alot smoother on road and off-road now. Deffently get alot more flex outta this kit than stock. I beat the crap out of it very often and it's holding up great. This kit will last like it should. Again....worked out great for my 97 TJ.

I use my jeep off and on road.

I installed this kit on my wife's '01 TJ. Overall it's pretty straight foward. The directions are good until you get to the shifter drop bracket. It took me awhile to figure that out. It's the "I" shaped bracket bolted to the driver side of the trans tunnel. I also stripped the threads out of two of the nut inserts for the trans skid plate/cross member. Also there is no mention of how to re-attach the front track bar to the axle housing. I decided to drill a new hole. Also make sure that the front stabilizer link bolts don't conflict with the frame when you lower the vehicle to the ground. Other than those couple items the job goes as planned. It's just nuts and bolts. Take your time and be safe.

The rear upper shock bolts were a pain. And getting the rear coils in were also a pain. I also had to drill a hole for the front track bar since it wouldn't go back in.I measured 3/4 of an inch and drilled a hole big enough for the bolt to go through.I can't find anything that isn't so great about the lift yet. Nothing has broken and I hope it stays that way

Overall a great low end cost lift for a jeep. Rides good. Great stance. Looks awesome. The only thing negative I have to say is that the kit could come with more hardware instead of having to reuse the factory bolts nuts etc. Would definetly purchase again.
