Default Need help on teraflex selection

I need your help. I have decided on buying the 2.5" BB for my 08 JK Rubicon Unlimited. I have 33" tires, Lod front bumper with winch up front.

There are several set-ups for the 2.5"BB -- with/without shocks, extenders, coils etc. Too much info for my small brain right now. I go to the websites and find:

1. TeraFlex JK Wrangler 2.5” HD Performance Budget Boost w/shocks - $577

2.TeraFlex JK Wrangler 2.5" HD Budget Boost - $366

[IMG][/IMG]

3.TeraFlex JK Wrangler 2.5" HD Budget Boost w/adapters - $409

[IMG][/IMG]

4. TeraFlex JK Wrangler 2.5" Budget Boost w/shocks - $430

[IMG][/IMG]

5.TeraFlex JK Wrangler 2.5" Performance Budget Boost w/adapters - $286

[IMG][/IMG]

I could use some help in the selection. I off-road twice a month in a terrain varying from the Sandy Lands to rock crawling in the Canadian Shield.

I put the prices in as guidelines as i realize that other places may sell at different prices. These are all from one vendor for comparison purposes.

Final note... I assume that the pictures are what I will actually et in the various kits as there eally was no description of the parts at that site.

Thanks in advance.

I would also recommend the HD as i have the Warn rock crawler front bumper and a Warn 8274 winch, see sig for what i have now. I am now noticing that new shocks might be a good idea.

Shocks or adapters are up to you. I have the adapters and have been happy so far. Eventually I wanna upgrade, but the Rubi stocks have worked well. I do recommend getting the HD version though, I think the front coils are a must for a winch and bumper. The stock springs are just too soft. Ours sagged alot after adding all the extra weight, plus it also made the front feel "spongy".

Rubicons have actually pretty good shocks under them. Plus our 4 coil 2.5" kits are still a little ways off.
