Like most I'm on some what of a budget and looking for a lift. Question, should I go with the Budget Boost or a coil spring lift? I have a 4 door, so if you have any pictures I could use as reference that would be great.

What kind of wheeling do you do?

Nothing serious, I mainly go to beaches and rivers. In the future I'd like to meet up with people from the forum.

I would say all you need is the BB spacers. Coils will give you better flex but is sounds like you wont really need it. Check out the link below for photos:

All depends on what you want to do with it. I went with the 2.2 lift from Rough Country...for the price you cant beat it. They are a vendor here check them out.

i would go with a budget boost with coils. teraflex makes a really good one. i feel like my ride is much better after i threw away the spacers and went for coils

Tex

So I think I'm going with either a 2" Rubicon Express or 2.5" TF. Any opinions?

I have been very happy with Teraflex. They answer questions quickly and always know what you need to fix a problem. They are sponsors on the site and will answer a PM. Their stuff is good quality and fair priced.

Do it right, Teraflex coil lift. It seems to be the most complete kit out there. Maybe just add a JKS front trac bar and call it a day.

I also just bought a brand new 08 4 dr JK. I am looking for lift options. My dealer gave me the ok in writing on a spacer lift. What brand would you reccomend? Are there any 2 inch coil lifts? I had a trailmaster suspension lift on my 93 and loved it. I havent heard anything on trail master. I see that there are 2 categories of spacers poly or metal, What is better? I sthere a disadvantage with going with the spacers lift with out changin the sway bar links? If I have an Unlimited X with the stock 32 X17's. Do I need to change the shocks? Sorry I am rambling but I have many questions. I would love any words of wisdom.
