No question about it. Go with the Terra Flex spring lift, which ever one you want.
I did the 2.5 coil lift. So far it's great!!!!!
Which erver one you want get the kit, it has everything you need...

I agree. It is only about $200 extra for the 2.5" Teraflex kit with springs vs. the BB. It wasn't out when I bought my BB. I am not willing to pay $432 for a new set of 2.5" springs from Teraflex.
So, I'll stick with my BB with stock Rubi Unlimited springs in the front to eliminate the rake from the bumper/winch.

The BB is a great lift for most people as it is all they really need.....and yes, Mr.(SilverSaharaJK) you can still do "real 4 wheeling" with it. I encourage you to come out and join in on some BC trails, and you can eat your words

You mean like the Rubicon Trail or Golden Spike/Moab Rim in Moab????
Nothing wrong with my set-up on these trails last year and besides, this guy sounds like he's not going for anything like that. He wants simple.

I placed a 2" Rubicon Express BB with monoshocks on our JK sahara unlimited. I have been extremely pleased with this lift...no issues with rubbing with 4.5 BS wheel. I went with 33x12.5R17 tires based on only having a 3:73 rear and I drive through many mountian passes and power was an issue for me. Also, I am not considering re-gearing for sometime if ever. The kit is easy to install and the monoshocks are 100% better than the Sahara stock shocks!!! Here are a few pictures of what the 2" lift with 33's look like.

Many people on this forum have run the BB kits and done "real wheeling" as you say. There's even a lengthy thread with tons of pics...
