Lift + what else?
#1
Be been thinking about the 3" lift with 8 flex arms...my question is what else? Track bars? Front and back? Drive shafts? Really needed? Shims? Shocks? Which ones? I have a 2012 jk sport 2 door...pavement queen and some weekend mudding...no rock climbing. Would I be better off with the 2.5 lift? I like the look of the extra space with the 3" lift. Plan is 35's with a gear reduction...no bigger. Please give me some ideas guys...there are soooo many options and ways to go on this.... Thanks!

All arms get expensive very fast. You might want do shocks and a 2-3" spacer lift and drive it around first. It will look good on the street, perform well off road, and you'll get a sense of where next to spend money. The arms won't get you the bang for your buck until you change your driveshaft, I would do adjustable trackbars before the arms. The stock arms are actually great for the road and light wheeling. The bushings in the stock arms last 100k street miles and eat a lot of road vibe.
