Default hello fellow JK'n fool's

First this forum is epicly sick.....
Just got a new 2008 Unlimited sahara, black, soft top upgraded sounds and it's on the one.
Have had a couple cherokee's in the past and always loved them as soon as Unlimited came out new i had to have one. Was waiting and broke down and got one with all the deals they got going now.
No how gonna put a rubicon express bb on next pay check and found someone to do it for $250 which seems good.
Now i asked him about doing 1" body lift and he was on some i'de rather not unless you really want to.
So my question is, what are the issues related to a body lift on 2008 unlimited sahara AUTOMATIC. Does anything need to get rewired or moved?
For now not trying to go real big, just 2" bb and 1" bl. then throw some 33-35" on some of those new MT side biters, gonna murder it out ALL black son...
Ow yea i was wondering what my option are for replaceing the silver piece on front and rear bumber. Want all black but not buy new bumper at this point.
thanx for listening, i just want someone to be nice to, hahahaha

stock.....

For the AUTOMATIC version: No problem with a 1" body lift.
Takes about 3 hours to install
