Well I picked up Rubicon take offs with less than 1k miles. (4) Shocks, Front Springs 18, Rear Springs 59, and Control Arms for $195 shipped. Should I use the JK Grade 8 Hardware Kit for the new parts? Also thinking about picking up the TF Leveling Kit to go on with this suspension.....yes or no?

EDIT: Mute point, I didnt read your last post
For a BB, you should reall consider Rough Country for $139. Their spacers are steel not poly.
Then add 4 nice Bilstein shocks to match $86ea.
Then later add rear trackbar bracket and Adj. front trackbar.

Your planning on doing heavy aftermarket bumpers, cheaper spacer lifts will sag over time. I'd suggest maybe saving a little more for a 2.5 coil lift from TF or RK. Been running my 2.5 TF coils for 3 years and its been a great setup. Good luck

Do it right the 1st time. I will say the ride quality was as good as stock w the TF spacers and TF 9550 shocks. If your happy with the stock bumper, It's a great economy lift that allows you to run 35's.
