Love this lift! 2.5" mono went with 17x9 wrapped in 33x12r17. So smooth on and off road.

Just in joy

Does anyone have issues with the right spring getting unseated during flex?

I only have an issue with the right side it is constantly unseating at the bottom. I already have an easy fix but I thought it was weird.

Don't get me wrong I love the kit. and it flexs pretty good also.

I've never had any problem with mine.

My right rear came unseated once not sure how but four wheel parts put it back for me. Nothing since then.

I just got the rubicon express 2.5 with monotube shocks. Was wondering what extra things you need for the lift? It says no need for front drive shaft replacement. But what about control arms and front track bar? Just as my name states. Im new to this aha. What mandatory that i need to upgrade with the lift and what is more of a “better quality of life/ride” upgrade?

All of the effort when lifting a jeep is to keep decent pavement manners. From that perspective "better quality of ride" is subjective. There is a reason some lifts look more budget friendly than others. The #1 thing you need is some form of caster correction, preferably front adjustable arms (the 2 lowers at a minimum), or some control arm drop brackets. Cam bolts are not a good solution. a 2.5" kit drops your caster probably around 3.2 degrees as a guestimate, down from the factory 4.2 degrees. That might not sound like much but small changes in caster can have a big effect. If that kit didn't come with a track bar then the front is a pretty standard thing so that you can get the axle centered under the jeep. In the rear you should be using a raised TB bracket on the axle which helps some, but won't dial you in perfectly. It's typically "good enough" for now.

If you have, or plan to add, larger tires then keep in mind that will stress all steering components. Ball joints are a big issue on these axles..
