If u plan on running 35s at some point go ahead and only spend the money on the lift once. It will save u time and money in the long run. The 2.5 terraflex coil lift is what I recommend and doesn't look bad at all with 33s. If u get the TF then get the ones with the unlimited springs, u get a little more height if u have a 2 door and a little stiffer for when u add bumpers and other accessories. Just my 2 cents.

I'm running 33 on a 4 i'n pro comp lift, I plan on running 35 soon so I just went ahead and bought it. I think it looks good as is though.

No but I got a referral from a buddy and had someone in Wilmington do it for a very reasonable price. Of course now I want to go bigger with a 2.5" lift and 33s

You're right next door to me in Salem - I think I've seen your rig around town. Do you have forum stickers?? I have another buddy on the forum in Salem with a 2dr deep water blue 2010 with 33s and black rims, maybe you're seen him.

Thanks !
I do know a couple of people who have swaped their 2 dr springs for unlimited springs. I an running 4 door springs in the front. I gained 1.75" but some of that was due to the weight of my front bumer and winch my 2 door springs were starting to sag.

There is alot of spring info here

Looks sharp, like the rubi rails. I see where you are going with this ... "Black Ops".
