They're here!
Thanks to David at Northridge and Travis at DTD I now have a garage full of parts!
Full 3" TF coil and shock lift w/ FLCAs and RUCAs and TF monster trackbar.
You would think the instructions would be a little clearer for a product of this caliber.
What length should I start the LCAs at for the 3" lift?
I understand every vehicle is different, but starting with stock JK as reference, they should have initial lengths (center to center of boltholes) for every short arm lift height TF makes in a chart. This would alleviate a lot of trial and error and just leave some fine tuning. Sorry for the minor rant.
I also have a set of 5-35" KM2s waiting on the Addicts to arrive.
I hope to start the project this weekend. I can't wait. Will be using this site and FAQ a lot!
Thanks

Teraflex recommends 23 and 1/4 inches for the Passenger side and 23 and 1/8 inches for the driver side as a good starting point for their Front Lower Control Arms on their 3" lift kit. I ended up at around 23 and 3/8 for the passenger and 23 even on the driver side once I evened out my alignment. They recommend 18 and 3/8 inches for the Rear Upper Control Arms (which is about as small as the will go).
Thanks Andy.
After a lot of digging around the instruction section on TFs website I finally found a chart on the 5th page. It shows for 4 door FLCA 23 7/8 driver and 24 1/8 Passenger and RUCA are 18 3/8. Wonder why this paper wasn't packed with the arms?

Well, I got started on the lift install today. I ran into a problem with the rear swaybar links. The instructions, write ups, and pictures all say and show bolting them to the inside of the brackets. The problem I ran into is mounting the shocks. These links look like they have a wider joint at the bottom than the ones in the write up. Thus the bolt head on the link hits the shock tube. Teraflex kit and Teraflex shocks. 
I finally gave up and mounted the links on the outside for now.
I also had problems getting the rear trackbar into the bracket. Which mounting hole is the 3" kit supposed to use(top, middle, bottom)?
No indication in the installation instructions.
Then trying to install the rear upper control arms, every instruction sheet I could find for them said "The stickers go up"........What stickers?
If it weren't for the pics in the 4" write up, I would still be test fitting...lol
Maybe I can get the front done tomorrow.

I finally got to finish the install today, and all I can say is Bad A**!
After talking to Joe to wrap up some of the finer details, I did a quick "driveway alignment" and went for a spin around the block. I have a strong vibration around 2-10 mph. I think it may be driveshaft alignment issues, that should get resolved tomorrow.
Between this kit and the 35s I gained 5.75" front and 6" rear. I haven't heaved up my full size spare yet (those things are heavy). I also notched the tranny skid, just waiting on the paint to dry before reinstall.
I also got my EVO C2 gussets in today. I may see if the alignment shop will install them for me tomorrow, assuming they are reasonable. What seems to be the going price on getting these welded in?
