I have the Economy 2.5" spacer kit. I opted for this since I have 18/60 springs on my JKUR. I could not be happier. I did add the mono tube Rubi-steins which are by and far the best I've felt yet. The ride is way better than stock, and I netted nearly 3.5" of lift so far. After I add some weighted bumpers/winch etc it'll settle a bit. I would've went with the BB, if I had a softer set of springs. I did add the Teraflex adj. track bar up front...i don't consider this optional.

Will you be keeping your stock bumpers?
Most if not all lift manufactures spec their lift height with aftermarket bumpers that are heavier then stock.

That said you could net more then 3" up front and 2.5 to 2.75" out back with OEM bumpers.

Personal preference some don't like the extra space in the top of the wheel well. Just something to consider. Do a search here lots of photos of Jeeps with similar set ups.

Either way win win its a Jeep
