Over 2.5", what else needs replaced
After being absolutely, 100% sure I'd never need more than 2.5" of lift, and then buying said lift, I now see the error in my ways.
I haven't installed the lift yet. Now I think I want to go maybe 3-4".
My question is this; if I go 3-4", what else will I have to replace, modify, etc?
I have an '08 JKU. I'm putting on 35x12.50x17's. Gonna regear to 5:13's. I'm just trying to figure out what another inch or two will cost me.
Thanks for any advice or insight!!

at 3-4'' and it looks like you have an auto, you will need to replace that front driveshaft eventually but that can be said for pretty much anyone that wheels there rig with an auto because when we flex out the tranny pan hits the rubber boot. You will want at least adjustable front control arms to increase your caster, you will see the ride is super flighty on the road and your caster will very low, so the arms will get your caster back to stock. I would recommend the lower control arms and an adjustable front trackbar either way.
