I like to hit the trails as much as I can but realistically it's about twice a month. I am headed to trailfest in Bobcaygeon at the end of the month so she will definitely get a good workout!

TeraFlex 2.5" or 3" is a good lift. I have a 2.5 on mine but added 1"TF spacers front and rear. I think the BDS stuff is good also. I like there adjustable control arms, but I went with TF. I also installed a RK front adjustable TB with my lift. I still have my stock front DS but will replace at first signs of damage (8000 or so miles on it now).

2.5" lift is relatively easy on the vehicle and geometry you can clear 35" tires with fender trimming and either more back spacing on rims or wheel spacers.
Almost any lift in the 2.5 will be quality and no real need for a lot of other stuff till you hit 4" lift and 37s....
Terraflex, rock krawler, metal cloak, synergy are all quality stuff and can't go wrong with them plus they have a extensive lineup for upgrading as you go....

2010 2 door rubi
2.5" Tera Flex (4dr lift) Bilstein 5100 shocks + RC 3/4 coil spacers - total lift is around 4"
Rides great. I have geometry correcting brackets for the front oem control arms... but I have not yet installed them.
I don't have any pics since the 3/4" coil spacer install, but here it is with just the 2.5" TF lift.
do yourself a favor and get the heavy duty front track bar from TF too... it's perfect. one more note, I have my track bar re-torqued by the dealer with every oil change... 1. security on my end 2. keeps the dealer happy with my lift - they are good with my warranty since I am having them keep an eye on the suspension.

TF 2.5 w/ Bilstein long travel shocks, TF adj trackbars, 315/70/17 Duratracs on stock Rubi wheels w/ 1.5 spacers. No rubbing anywhere at full flex, didn't modify fenders whatsoever. Rides great to me, installing same setup on wifes 2dr as we speak.
