I've been torn trying to decide what size lift to get. I'm pretty confident I don't want anything larger than 35s, but is the difference between 2.5" to 4" lift worth the huge price difference? I've also been looking at the 3" tf lift but it costs so much more than the 2.5.... is 1/2 inch really worth it? Finally, I want my jeep to not only function well but also LOOK like it's been lifted. Sometimes it's hard to tell from a pic the diff between 2.5 bb and stock.

Anyone know how much extra height you gain from sahara stock tires(255/70R18) to 35s?

2" Rubicon Express Lift (similar to a TF) in these pictures, I just finished installing the Rough Country 1.25" body lift an hour ago (no pics yet)...

Sorry to hijack but a question to all those with this or a similar lift... At full flex in the rear, does anyone else notice how tight the flex line in the brakes are?! Has anyone had problems or have you all gone with longer flex line? Thanks!

i ordered my tires, and they're on the way. 2.5 coil lift is here just waiting and begging to get on.

i was wondering if anyone rubbed too much without spacers? i was thinking i could just get a flashpaq or something and skip the spacers if they weren't that bad. gonna have to reset the speedo with 35's...

probably an obvious question, but when u plug in a flashpaq or something, it stays in right? what if u just get a speedo calibration and use it, then un plug it? will it reset everything to default?

can i get by without spacers on my stock rims?
