Lift
Okay so I have a 2007 wrangler x unlimited and I want to get about a 2' lift on it. I want to stay as cheap as possible but I really don't know what I should or shouldn't get. Suggestions please!

Any 2 - 2.5" BB (budget boost / spacer lift) should be fine. Just compare prices and which components come in the kit.
But, before you hit the 'buy' button, start with a little research on what issues lifting can cause, and what the fixes are. Could be that you won't notice anything different at 2". Could be that you do, and will want to add more components later...

Budget lifts are ok but not for 2.5...If you want to play the game you got to pay the price...we have all bit the bullet and said f it at one point in time for our rigs...buy a good kit with arms...you will be happy...you will have to keep buying parts if you go with a budget boost....just my .02

I'm no expert, but I had a leveling kit on my JK for about 4.5 years and wheeled a lot. I just had a 2.5" lift installed today and wow! There is a difference! My stock suspension was worn out. Didn't realize how bad until today (that or the new lift is just so much more stiff).
