I need help. I have a 2011 wrangler 6 speed, with 3.21 gears. I was looking to level my jeep and go with some 33's ( I have 255/75/17 now) I was looking at the teraflex 2.5" Budget Boost Suspension , but of a little more i can get the Rough Country 2.5" Suspension Lift Kit with Performance Shocks. I want to stay with my stock wheels, th tires I have now are 32's I saw thinking about 33's , not that much of an up grade. Than i seen the wrangler duratrac 315/70/17 that says is a 34.3" tire. Any one using the Rough Country 2.5 suspenion lift on a 2 door wrangler with 33 or 34 tires. i need help bad i am driving my wife crazy she keeps saying Christmas is around the corner and if i dont make my mind up i ll be doing with out! I have about $2000-$2500 budget for tires, lift/leveling spacers if i need them, and disconnects, and any thing else I foget. Oh I forgot I have a differant fund for a bumper and winch. So what ever I do I need the front not to sag back down after i put the bumper and winch on. Thanks for all your help and advice. Soon this will be all over and I can get back to normal. (ya right) One more thing this is my D.D. about 30 miles round trip.

Get teraflex bb with shock extensions. Excellent price

 

Christmas is around the corner. The classifieds on this forum might have stuff you could use. I suggest the bb as already suggested. Go as cheap as possible and spend the saved money on GF or Wife/kids. With a rear end gear ratio like you have you don't need a lift or bigger tires. A bb would be perfect with your stock tires. Stick with the stock bumpers. If you wreck it buy another online cheap in classifieds on this forum. The stock are way lighter. Its far more fun out there with a stock Jeep keeping up with the others most of the time, as opposed to under geared bigger tires but guttless on steep hills. I'd buy second hand stuff offer 50% of the new cost. If your in a big city you can pick it up without paying for shipping.

 

O.K. let me get this streight. A budget boost Part # TF-1355210 is better than Rough Country 2.5" Suspension Lift Kit with Performance Shocks Part # RC-678P . Both are the same price. i just thought it would be better to have shocks instead of shock extentions. Or is there something I am missing between these two porducts?

 

It really just comes down to preference. If all youre planning to run are 33's then you can do it on the stock suspension but a leveling kit will do you just fine. Some peoples opinion is that the JK looks funny running a 2.5 lift with 33's. Which is why i attached the link showing JK's on 33's. Go through it and make your decission if a lift kit or leveling kit fits your needs.

Here is my JK with a 2.5 lift rolling on the factory wheels



then here is my JK again but this time with 315/70/17

The Teraflex leveling kit works great... 1" rear, 2" front. Then you can either move up a little in tire size or stay the same without huge space inside the fenders. BTW... you can fit 35's inside this kit easily!
