Do I need to get the geometry bracket??
Geometry correction brackets are a hotly debated item no matter who the manufacturer is. There are two facts about them that are not debated. (1)They improve your on-road ride, and (2) they sacrifice a little bit of ground clearance.

I have them and love them but I don't do any rock crawling.

As you lift higher, the pinion tilts up which automatically lowers the Caster. This causes flightier steering. The higher you go, the lower the caster, and the flightier it gets. At 2.5", many people do not worry about it.

So, drive it with the lift and see what you think - and then decide if you want brackets or adj arms.
