I had the Pro-Comp 2.5 inch coils and did not like them and ended up going with the EVO 3 inch plush ride coils and really like them. Additionally since you are going taller than stock I would highly recommend getting an adjustable front track bar or raised front track bar bracket. Since you mentioned some monster pot holes I would also suggest installing inner C gussets as they can bend with 35's when you hit pot holes.

One last thought, if you can find a local Jeep club where there are Jeepers who have the coils you are interested in I would ask for a ride. Ride is 100% subjective and what works for some may not work for you.

I wasn't saying that you should or should not, just adding a bit of information for you to use in making your decision...



An adj trackbar would obviously do a better job of perfectly centering the axle, but, the bracket has the added benefit of helping with the roll center. Personal opinion on whether you would care about it, or how you might feel knowing that one tire might stick out .25" or whatever more than the other side.

 

All good stuff, thanks.

Guess it's between RK, JKS, Tera flex front track bars.

Is the RK rear track bracket AN AXLE side bracket. Does that just mean it connects to axle vs the chassis side mount of track bar in rear?

 

That gets in to keeping the draglink and trackbar parallel, and flips/drop pitmans, and lift height, and bumpstop to keep the bracket off the frame. With 2.5" coils, he would be better off just using the adjustable trackbar that comes in the kit, and not even thinking about this.

 

Correct, raises from the axle rather than drops from the frame.

Some mfg's choose raised, others go with dropped. Most posts you will see indicate that raised is the better option,

 

I'm learning, I thought I had done alot of reading and research over the last 6 months but I value your guys input. There are things ic didn't know to consider.

I can always get a rear track bar down the road and just use the axle side bracket for now. Upgrade as many of said.

Just trying to see if it's worth piecing together parts like I am, of if it's better to buy a kit from one manufacture.

I hear pros and cons to different parts of kits, so if I can try to mix and match to get get a quality setup I'd rather spend the extra time and money to do that.

 

Very happy with my AEV 2.5" dual sport plus GEO brackets. On road DD was a big improvement over stock.
Full size spare, aftermarket front and rear bumper, plus rock rails.

Don't think you can go wrong with AEV or RK.

 

True but the more information the better decision he can make and know what to look for. Not all lifts come with an adjustable front track bar.

 

RK now has a bolt on rear TB bracket check it out. X10 RK coils ride great "imo"

 

Just go with the stock mod and add lcas if you want. No sense in piecing out the stuff that comes in RKs kit from another manufacturer. There's not really any differences in each of them. Simple, RK 2.5" coils, front track bar, rear track bar bracket, front disconnects, rear adjustable sway bar, and if you want, front lower control arms. Then add some 9000s and you're good to go. It's simple.
