another lift question...
I am looking for a lift kit... but dont know what i should go with...
I would like to run 35"
but dont know if i should go with 2.5" or a 3" kit...
I would like to go with TeraFlex kit's.
I do not go off road much and when i do its Vary seldom I use 4lo.
I know that I will need a Backspace of 4.5" or less/ or Spacers...
what else would i need with one of these kits?
My jeep is a 4dr X.
thanks for all the input!

There's no real difference between a 2.5" and 3" lift. Different manufacturers just use different numbers to describe them. I have just such a lift. You can see my sig for the specs. Lots of options in this range. I went with the Northridge Old Man Emu kit. Teraflex, Full Traction, and Rock Krawler all make nice kits too.
To do it right, you'll want springs, shocks, track bars (f/r), front lower control arms, and longer rear sway bar links (you can swap the rears to the front, or go with quick discos in front--your choice).
You'll hear some people say you can omit the track bars and some even claim you don't need the LCAs. Conventional wisdom is that they're all a good idea, though.
