Your Jeep looks awesome, I have the opposite version, all white 2012 Rubicon. I'm planing to do the same lift with 33's. Did you need the exhaust extensions? Also did this kit come with the longer sway bar links? I'm suffering with the same lift kit info overload.

Hey surfndav-

We were on the hunt for an all white Rubicon when the only other option dropped in our lap- black. I did get the longer links for the rear and put my factory rears up front. I did get the exhaust spacers, but have not put them on yet. They will be easy when I put my shocks on later. Joe at Teraflex was great and Northridge got it to me lickity split with free shipping. Now I am more familiar with the goings on underneath my JK having been an old CJ,YJ,TJ guy. Do it yourself or with a buddy. The hardest part is the passenger 16mm bolt on top of the shock and getting the track bars to line back up. Strap them or get Hulk pissed like I did. Proper torque specs ease the mind as well. 125 is a bunch on the arms (lower) and track bars! If you can get the shocks now, do it. The kit will be that much easier and complete!
