Take a look at our 3" Premium plus kit, You need to replace the front driveline above 2" of lift.

Default Teraflex 2 1/2

I put the Teraflex 2 1/2" coils and shocks on my Wrangler.....ride is not factory, but it is ok.....afterall, it is a Jeep. Did it myself, without a lift and pretty much by myself.....took about 10 hours of my time, but I saved a chunk of money to be spent elsewhere on the toy!!!! Any mechanical skills at all and a place to do it, it is worth your time to do it.

I am running the same on my 2010 with 295/70/18 nitto trail grapplers. Works great and just enough lift to make a difference

I have a 2 Door with a 3" Zone lift. This is my DD and drives great better than stock in my opinion. The cost is low and I run 34" tires with no issues. I think a small spring lift will last longer than a BB will. Don't quote me on this but I think the spacers will break down long before the springs will. also Teraflex has a nice 2.5" spring lift that will not break the bank.
