I did my lift a long time ago so I'm not sure if this is still accurate or not. When I did my lift. I did a TF 3". I got a TON of lift out of it on my 2 door. More than I needed to run 35s. So I actually went back and bought the 2.5" springs.
When I did my lift TF used the same springs regardless if you had a 2 door or 4 door which explains why I got so much lift. I don't remember but I want to say I got over 4.5 inches with the 3" coils and just over 3 inches with the 2.5" coils.

Get the 2.5" teraflex coil lift from Northridge4x4.com, u can get the lift plus bilstein shocks for like $775 or so. Or get the kit with shock extensions for about $480, which is the route I went cuz I have a Rubicon with stiffer shocks but I'm getting bilsteins soon for a 3.5" lift to get some extra droop.
Here's my baby with the 2.5 coil lift from teraflex with a 1 1/4" rough country body lift. Shock extensions trimmed fenders,pinch seams cut 2" off rubi rock rails, spidertrax wheel spacers on stock painted moabs and 37" bfg km2's

Here's my JK with the 3 inch lift. I thought it was just too much lift for 35s. With the 2.5 inch coils I still got over 3" of lift, it rides better, has less bump steer and the driveshaft angles are better.
I originally bought the 3" kit (that's what's in the pic). I thought the lift was excessive for my tires so I went ahead and purchased the 2.5" springs and swapped those in.
Completely off topic, where in Kuwait are you? I'll be in Kuwait City next Sat for a couple of days transiting between Iraq and the states. I'll be downtown.
