Default newb suspension question

Stock rubicon wanting small lift for looks and clearance. Thinking 2-1/2". I like the idea of the OME because of a choice of coil weight. Can anyone help me out with this? Trails only no serious rocking. thanks

Default Newb suspension Question

Stock rubicon 4 door looking for 2 to 2-1/2" lift for looks & clearance. I am interested in the OME set that has choice of spring weight and comes with their shocks also. Can anyone confirm it's a quality lift? or talk me out of it into something else similar. Basic trails for now nothing crazy. would like to install myself and they say that other items are not needed such as track bars or any other relocation of components. Any help would be great.

I am also running the tf 2.5 coil lift. Great inexpensive lift.

Lots of people on here with the OME setup. Northridge 4x4 has a package deal with options.

The TeraFlex 2.5" kit is very good. Many members here, including some I personally know have this set-up and have been very happy. Also TeraFlex has a Rep. on this forum who is very helpful. His name is Joe, send him a PM and I'm sure he will be glad to answer any questions you may have.
