I have a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Oscar Mike. I am wanting to add a 2.5" lift and 33-35" tires. And eventually electronic lockers and disconnects.

I'm looking to do lift first and have no idea what I'm doing. I've been reading on the forums but I get a lot of conflicting information.

I was thing of grabbing the following.

Am I headed in the right direction for a a conservative lift with quality parts? Will I need more than this?

 

What kind of budget are you working with?

 

By a kit not just parts

 

Well that brings me to 460 and and 280 = 740ish. I'm ok with that. I'm more ok with zero dollars but what can you do lol

 

You need more than shocks and springs to do it right.

Look at a 2.5" budget boost if you want to go cheap.

 

Teraflex 2.5 coil lift..........about $450 with shock adapters...... Millions have gone this way......

 

If you're only planning on going with 33s or 35s you technically don't even need a lift. You have to do a few mods and get some nee wheels or spacers, but if you're on a budget like most of us this is the cheapest route. it gives you a lower center of gravity, you keep the factory ride and can focus more of your money in other places on your jeep.

There are tons of people on here running 33s and 35s with no or very minimal lift.

 

I just put the Teraflex 2.5" kit on my 13 JKU Sahara and love the stance and ride- I went with shock adapters with the kit initially and ordered 5100's to replace the stock shocks. The kit is complete and something you can install with the right tools in your garage if you want to save the install money, but if your time is limited- don't mess with it as it will take you all day if you follow the directions and actually torque all bolts back to the spec- with exception of the top nut on the front shocks. I also did it solo and would recommend having a little help to speed it up. Teraflex customer service is also a pretty good experience if needed.

 

This would be a great choice.

 

That's what I started out with and then added Rock Krawler adjustable lower control arms and adjustable track bar for a more stable on-road ride.
