I have these options but I'm a little lost, would appreciate some help:

1) Rough Country 1¼" Body Lift $100
{only drawback seems to be that it only lifts 1.25 inch}

2) TeraFlex JK Wrangler 2.5in Performance Budget Boost
{seems like most common, has good JK Write-UP on this, but want to make sure with my stock rubicon shocks it'll be ok}

3) Teraflex Leveling Kit ($130) Adds 2" in back, 1" in front.
{looks like a good back for the buck, except it's a leveling kit so I guess I don't get that much lift...}

4) Terraflex Econolift 2" $140
{this one seems like the best deal but they're trying to push for shocks, so I don't know if it's a good idea to use stock shocks on this}

I would like to do this myself (or die trying), so if you guys could point me towards the one that makes the most sense in terms of getting good lift without cutting corners that would be sweet.

 

from what i can tell rubi shocks are just fine with the TF kit.

 

#2, as complete a bb as you can get for being a bb.imo

 

I'd vote the bb too. Heard nothing but good things about it

 

Personally if I was to do it over....I would have saved for the Coil Spring lift and add in the monoshocks or Long Travel shocks

But for BB....#2 TF 2.5" would be my preference it gives you that option of 35's.

 

Man, do it once, do it right...save an extra $159 and get the TF 2.5" Coil with Shock Adapters. If you've got the Rubi shocks all you need is the adapters.

Especially if your JK is your daily driver...I run mine off-road plenty and it's my DD and the setup won't disappoint. Very nice off and on-road manner.

 

TF 2.5" BB

 

Note that the BB you linked to does not include shocks or shock adapters... I think it is intended to be used with longer aftermarket shocks. TF sells the same kit with shock adapters that should work well with your Rubicon shocks.

 

TF BB thats what I started with hell sometimes I still wish I had it

 

I have been working with a local shop and when I took it in, intially I said levelling kit. He, however, id the coil spring lift, 2", but also added the long travel shocks in the front. He also added longer sway bar in the front and rear said the new package will give me great articulation off-road.

For now, I still have the stock wheels and tires on my Rubi. I will most likely wait until I use them up and then switch to either 33" or maybe consider more lift and opt for 35". However, my main issue when I did this was to maintain my factory ride...get ofroad about once every other month and the daily drive is rough here! Anyway, really happy with the way it looks...huge improvement and while it is obviously not a massive lift by any means, it feels and drives great but I also notice the lift and I can not wait to see how it handles offroad later this month!
