Looking at the same lift......

with a 2012, 4.10's.... and 35's.....

Will the basic lift be fine for light/moderate off roading? no real "rock crawling"

Great lift that will accommodate your needs and grow with you when you start to crawl as well.

I am buying the basic kit for 2010 JKU with 35's, moderate wheeling. Will I need extended driveshafts?

Most definitely. I have had the lift now for about a year or so and I absolutely love it with my 35's.

No you won't. But I would get front sway bar links and just upgrade the rears(Daystar off energy suspension) and depending on how basic of a lift you get (height wise) break lines.

my 3.25" springs from Rusty's are now over 3 years old and I have about 40k miles on them so far. I have a heavy JKU with front and rear bumpers, side and under armor and the springs have only lost about 0.25" of lift so far. I would say that is a very good thing.

Well, I am disappointed with my Rusty lift. After 5 years of off roading. The kid had sagged by 2 inches and rib against the tower because they bend inward.

I am working on a new lift design for my Jeep so i am not worried about the warranty.

I have a Rusty's 3.25" Long arm kit on mine and it looks and rides great! My only complaint was the bump stops weren't included other than that a very nice kit.

Mine were, may have just been left out by accident.
