Opinions on Mopar 2" Lift - Good Deal or Crap?
The dealer says they can get the 2" Mopar lift installed with parts and labor for $625 - seems like a good deal considering the teraflex kit for the 2.5" lift costs that in parts alone.
I'm just trying to fit 35" tires.... I really want to improve my breakover angle cause I get hung up on the transmission crossbar a lot. I'm not sure if 2" + 35" tires is enough... Suggestions?
Just wondering if anyone has any experience or recommendations. Is it a good deal or not? It seems like there's a good amount of work with it that goes into making sure everything stays nicely aligned. The guy actually talked me out of the 4" lift on the 4-door because it's not that good at keeping things lined up well and causes stress on components.
This is what the mopar 2" comes with according to the site:

(2" Lift Kits | Mopar)
- Ideally rated coil springs, combined with your choice of specially tuned shock absorbers, provide unmatched ride quality and handling, both on-road and on the trails
- Choose between Mopar's Performance shock or the premium Bilstein Shock. (not sure if price is for bilstein or mopar)
- Adjustable alignment cams (at lower link arms-to-axle attachment points) correct caster angle.
- Front body / frame alignment corrected by an adjustable track bar; the rear is handled via a track bar relocation bracket with integrated brace.
- Correct length stabilizer bar links with Heim ends.
- Brake hose and parking brake cable relocation brackets.
- Replacement high-clearance, high-capacity steering stabilizer kit.
- Works with all vehicle systems including the Electronic Stability Control.

Yup that's what I thought.
I would also install yourself and save some money, learn about your rig.
In reference to the kit. I have driven ones with that lift installed and they rode very nice. Like Ryan said just over priced.

Looks like a good price if it comes with the bilstein shocks, looks like that may be an option in the description. I would not use the cam bolts that the kit comes with
